Quick fitness quiz for you?

1 What muscles are primarilly worked by pull ups?
2 What does HIIT stand for?
3 Muscle ups are a combination of which two exercises?
4 What is the best exercise for targeting the lower back?
5 Why are six second abs, the ab lounge, and seated crunches so effective? ( they are not)
Winner is the person who gets all five right first.
Nah not hwk, just checking if anyone knows anything about fitness on here.

1) Largest = Lats (latisimus dorsi) if you’re talking wide overhand grip.
2) High Intensity Training
3) Never heard of them. Exercises have loads of different names. Are they a chin up into high bar dip? (I call them a gymnast’s chin-dip).
4) No such thing as “best” - depends on what is appropriate for that person. Muscles of the lower back or primarily extensors, so some form of extension exercise, obviously.
5) Like you say, they’re not. I’m guessing they get some results because the people who try them either benefit from placebo effect on their training, are altering a tired training regime for the first time in years, or are going from not doing any exercise to doing these routines - they’re better than nothing.

Half Marathon Running Plan for BEGINNERS?

I am a very, very beginner who has 6 months to build up to running 13 miles. I have been looking online and most of the plans start out with running at least 5 miles, which I can NOT do. Does anyone know of any running plans that might be better suited to my fitness level (level 0! LOL) Preferably, I would like to start out walking with a one mile goal the first week.

runners world magazine usually has great advice for beginners.
i would suggest you start with a shorter distance before trying to tackle a 1/2 marathon.

try a couple of 5 or 10k runs before you run a marathon. this will help you prepare for your future marathon runs.

What is the Wii Sports Fitness Age based on?

I’ve been playing the Wii Sports Fitness Challenge for a while and got an age of 23 : ) But is this age only based on your scores on the three games or how long it takes you to complete the challenges? or maybe something else all together?

Your score is based on how well you did in ALL THREE challenges.

And… the best “age” that you can get is actually “20″… NOT “22″ like someone else said.

So… if you just PRACTICE those challenges a lot and then take the “Fitness Test”… you’ll get an age of 20 in no time!!

It doesn’t have anything to do with HOW LONG it takes you… just HOW WELL you do.
