i really want to become a fitness instructor and work on a cruise ship. does anyone have any advice as to how i can become a fitness instructor and a healthy exercise and diet plan will also help a lot?thanks!
Enrol at you local college for the course, or try a at home learning course, sometimes your local area also has adult education centers that teach you. Once you become qualified you can then apply for a job.

Can I count sex as exercise on my fitness journal?
I have a fitness journal. I have to do some sort of exercise every afternoon after work. I either swim 5 km, ride my bike 40 kms on the bike lanes, jog 5km, walk 20 km. I have other kinds of exercises that are hard to measure how many calories I burn, but I still count them as exercise: like playing football with friends, rappelling, playing baseball, ice-skating, or rollerblading. I’ve never lifted weights, but I should try someday. Last week, I had sex 3 afternoons, and I didn’t do any exercise those days. The only thing that ever keeps me from doing exercise is when my boyfriend wants to have sex. It takes me from 2 to 3 hours, and I end up really tried, it leaves me wanting to go to sleep afterwards.

Holy crap 2-3 hours; you better count that as exercise!
I want to start mountain climbing and so I’m starting with the three peak challenge in the UK. What kind of exercises are the best to get in shape for mountain climbing? I know that climbing mountains will help me get in shape… but I have none close to me whatsoever. I’m assuming I’ll need some strong leg muscles?
Thank you so much! That is everything I need! I go to the gym 5 days a week anyway but only really do cardio and maybe about 20 minutes daily of weights on my legs - but didn’t really know what was best, so thank you very much - its been a great help!
I do mountaineering regularly, so I hit the gym 4 or 5 days a week and hike on the weekends.
You will need to do both strength training and cardio training.
I lift weights 4 days a week, alternating between upper and lower body. I do concentrate on my legs, back, and shoulders since these do the majority of the work when climbing.
I also do cardio 5 days a week - 30 to 60 minutes. I do a cycling class 3 days a week, hit the stair climber for 40 minutes one day, and do sprints on the treadmill for 30 minutes (2 minutes of sprinting, 3 of walking, alternating).
I usually do a high altitude hike on the weekends too, but you could probably just do a long, fast walk.
An EXCELLENT book on this subject is Training for Peak Performance by Clyde Soles (Mountaineer Books).
