BMI has nothing to do with being healthy (at least not much)..Originally Posted by Junior
even if you weight 70KG and you are 1,80 meters tall, it means nothing if you have to breathe hard when you go up some stairs or have a very high blood pressure or puls rate when you do some sports then.
thats not healthy and thats what happens if you don't do any sports normally ... its very bad for the heart btw.
i know, i'm a nerd too :P
But that dance thingy looks like fun i wish i could try it sometime.
yeah. i usually do nothing. having an awesome metabolism and a nutrition degree helps. that, and i'm pretty intuitive about food. if i'm hungry, i eat, if i'm not, i don't.
actually, that's not true, that i do nothing. my lifestyle in general is fairly active. i'm usually on my feet at least 8 to 10 hours a day straight (not including lunch breaks) at work, which i usually have at least three days of the week.
Guess it's then impossible to tell on the internet without pics.
But it's strange how people assume you're fit just because you're skinny. I mean, if you're fit, you wouldn't be skinny...you'd be more...well-built.
You wouldn't look like a pole. o_o
Some studies tells that masterbating prevents some kind of disease... thought it was some kind of cancer.
Heard it millions of times but hey, TV also tells lies.
Oh well, it's actually true that it decreases your stress.

I'm currently playing soccer twice a week with friends. I don't like indoor though. I've got pretty much no skill, so I need the space to run.
Playing indoors may be better healthwise. You will have to do more tricks and turns using your whole body rather than just more of a straight run towards goal outdoors.
Yesterday I ran around Six Flags, and now I am more sore that the previous days when I ran 2 miles. Maybe suspense was part of it, because there were points on the coaster I was so tense I had to relax myself because it was getting tiring. XD

well.. not because of that but you have to run a lot more indoors...(you use tricks outdoors as well thats not the difference there)
since you play 4vs4 and not 11vs11.. and even though the field is smaller you get much more action because 12,5% of the time you have the ball at your feet(100:8).. on a big field you only get the ball like ~5% of the time... (100:22) then again it depends on the postion on the field... indoors however, the postion is meaningless because you play defense AND attack.. pretty much like handball (so you have to get away from the opposite players... if you play in the defense outdoors you won't go much further than to the middle field.

That's a valid point too. But indoors your whole body will get involved, simply because there will be a greater chance of the players crowding around you. And try 5 a side rather 4 a side.
hmm nah
both indoors and outdoors its pretty much always 1vs2 if you got the ball... any more players would be a disadvantage for both teams so it would be useless
if you have the ball and another player of your team wants to help you he will only try to get away from his opponent so you can pass to him.. if he gets close to you he will close up the space you would otherwise be able to run to..
if its 1vs3 then most likely someone of your team is free so you can pass to him and the 3 players which crowded you are overran pretty fast.

Dude, that may be true in some circumstances. In general, the more players in a confined space, the harder it is to hold on to the ball. So unless you just want a ping pong match, you are going to have to use skill to hold on to the ball.
soccer is NOT american football, there is no team which has players above ~8 years old that attack players with more than 2 guys... and if there is such a team, i m pretty sure they'll lose every single game.
the reasons are obvious... if you are attacked by 2 or more players all you have to do is pass... thats all and the defense is beaten...
the second player only comes to help in a 1v1 if he can shield a big area and if his own opponent isn't too far away. did you ever watch a indoor tourney? they try to press the player with ball to the wall and after the first player succeded in doing so, the second player comes in and "surrounds" him, so the only way the player can take now is the way back.
well totally offtopic :/
btw its not the problem to find indoor places, its just that they cost money (at least here they do) but its more fun. at least for me because you can use walls etc ^^.

...and it's actually funnier to play with friends against others that you just know. And if it clicks, it can turn out to be a hell long, sweaty but fun game. If it doesn't, it would problaby end up with a fly kick in your head....
But that is, you just don't alwasy have somewhere indoors to play and grassy open fields are easier to find...

well cardio fitness and physical fitness are two very different things. i consider myself physically fit, but as far as cardio goes, i can barely do a lap without huffing and puffing.
What, by your definition, is "physically fit"? I'm confused as to what you're trying to say.
Surely cardio fitness is a part of physical fitness. The latter is a blanket term.
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
I believe he means stamina. Stamina, strength, speed, flexibility, etc. all have to do with fitness, but everyone has different levels.

I find that when people generally talk about fitness, they mean having high amounts of stamina and cardio capacity. Strength is often considered, but only proportional to your body height/weight/shape. Fitness drills commonly involve things like running laps or cross country, sit ups, push ups, chin ups, beep tests etc. Mostly exercise you can do out in the open. To a lesser extent, cycling and swimming. However, I haven't yet seen power weight training in so called fitness drills. In fitness classes held by gyms, sure. But they're generally known as a workout program here.
However, about judging fitness using the eye, it can be wrong, though how often, I dare not say. My Health and Phys Ed teacher was like a typical Aussie bloke. Had a belly, looked like he enjoys his trips to the local pub. But guys with rather well defined muscles were no match against him and his slightly chubby physique.
This makes me think: How healthy/fit are sumos? Obviously, BMI and body fat count are hardly a measure.
Actually hard to tell and all. I used to train all the time and my body size is not big and wasnt back then either but I had hardly no problam taking care of bigger sized people ecxept if they got the funny idea of lifting me up.......
But then again, think like this! When it comes to fitness and all, those Shaolin monks...

I ask because I wanted to drop some unwanted pounds this summer. So far Iv lost 10lbs since the beginning of summer through running a couple times a week and generally lowering my intake.
