I’m applying to colleges right now and I have different majors in my mind, mostly business/marketing. I’m a huge fan of sports and I’m wondering what sports news reporters major in in college?
Journalism would be good.
When you go into the Police Academy you have to be able to pass their Fitness Test or whatever. What are some basic things you have to do in this test, and how many push ups, pull ups, and sit ups and whatever.
This will vary, but the requirements should be provided to anyone who inquires. Very, very early in my time on Yahoo Answers, I was able to find the requirements for one city on their website to answer a similar question — so if you tell me which force you are attempting to learn about, I might be able to find it.
I also had a patient who was moving across the country to join he force in a major city on the West coast, and he had hearing loss from military service. Fortunately, their guidelines were very specific, and he was actually able to meet there criteria. Of course these requirements are to for ENTRY to the academy or force — they don’t seem to perform routine fitness evaluations! LOL!
I hear a bunch of rumours like ballerinas stop having a menstruation cycle because they are so skinny. So I was wondering what are some good physical health benefits from being a ballerina and some bad physical health risks from being a ballerina?
Ballerinas face the same health risks as young female athletes when they don’t eat enough to offset the energy they spend, and stop menstruating as a consequence, says a new study.
The study, led by sports medicine researcher Anne Ho ch, D.O., at The Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, has been presented at the American College of Sports Medicine meeting in Seattle.
"These two components of the female athlete tetras put them at higher risk for the other two; the cardiovascular and bone density deficits of much older, postmenopausal women," according to Dr. Ho ch, associate professor of orthopedic surgery and director of the Froedtert and the Medical College Women’s Sports Medicine Center.
The researchers studied 22 professional ballerinas, all members of the Milwaukee Ballet Company, to determine the prevalence of disordered eating, amenorrhea (lack of menstruation), abnormal vascular function and low bone density.
The dancers completed questionnaires on their menstrual patterns and eating habits, and underwent a blood test for hormonal levels. Thirty-six percent of the group had disordered eating habits and 77 percent were in a calorie deficit. Twenty-seven percent were currently amenorrheic, 23 percent had low bone mass density and nine percent were taking birth control.rterial ultrasound measurements revealed that 64 percent had abnormal artery dilation in response to blood flow.
"It was unknown if professional dancers without menstrual periods have evidence of vascular dysfunction, yet some characteristics of the tetrad were common in this group," says Dr. Hoch.
"Eighty-six percent had one or more components, and fourteen percent had all four," the expert added.
There seems to be a double standard here regarding the use of these two substances? They both seem to be means towards the same end, so why is one banned (HGH) and the other allowed (Cortizone)?
Cortisone is used to suppress inflammation, it is not anabolic in any way like growth hormone is.
I am 14 and I want to prevent premature aging. If you say oh my gosh you are to young then you should know that it is better to work on it now than to cure later.
So basically I want an inexpensive anti-aging lotion/cream that I can buy at my local drugstore. (Please make sure your recommendations are ones that are for daytime or all day.) I have normal to dry skin and would like something that has at least 2.5 FL OZ.
Please give me a link to the product with reviews!

I would like to be a fitness teacher. One that teaches classes at a fitness center, & not a personal trainer. But I wasnt sure if certifications were mandatiory.
In most cases your local community college will be able to answer that question. The reason for this is that every state has it’s own guidelines to be certified.
I see a lot of posts on here saying that we have the best health care in the world and the evidence is that people come here from other countries to get care. I agree that we have the best health CARE in the world.
What is being discussed is health care coverage, not health care. That is, the way health care is paid for.
Do you understand the difference?
Yes. If you have unlimited resources as an American you have the best health care in the world. If you are an ordinary citizen you simply don’t. Even the average health care plan generally does not cover the basics like European systems do. All too often Americans find out just how under insured they are when sickness strikes.

That’s important because when those people are lucky enough to stay healthy they will never see a problem whatsoever just as their fellow countrymen were just fine with their coverage before tradgedy happened.

This is the same thing as with the standard of living. Americans have a higher income on average than Americans but more detailed data shows it’s the top 1 percent income earners that’s responsible for the whole difference. Middle clas an poor Americans are much worse of than their European counterparts
That’s ultimately what it is about
I am 22, male and thinking about taking HGH supplements. Injections are too expensive so I am deciding between oral sprays and natural human growth hormone releasers. I read that after age 18, actual "growth" using HGH usually only occurs in the hands and feet. Will the releasers or the sprays also increase hand and feet size?
HGH the injection will make every cell in your body bigger.
That is the mode of action. It doubles the cells – that is why body builders use them., doubles the muscle cells. bigger, stronger ….. It will make your hands, feet, chin the first thing you notice. The sprays and supplements are indeded to make your body to produce more HGH, so the effects are less dramatic.
What are the most effective anti-aging products that you know of?
Staying OUT of the SUN! NO SMOKING! Other than that taking a multivitamin and making sure your body has the right nutrients is essential to maintaining youthful skin. Also, If you can find any multi-peptide serums (they contain amino acids that kickstart collagen production) or topical DMAE creams. (ask your local skin care specialist) Try to stay away from Peels and Microderm abrasion. They will strip your skin and make the wrinkles and lines APPEAR less, but is really not doing anything to help you long term.
