thnx!

It all depends on what your comfortable with. How many sets do you do and how many reps per set? You know what you should do is get the “perfect pushup” they give you a thing with the sets you should do and everything. It works good, I bet you’d like it

and the crunches, the same thing I’d say. You can look up all kinds of diet plans for different things depending on whether your trying to get bulk or get lean or whatever your goals may be.

If you want to diet - just stick to simple things:

-Only drink water -No fried foods - only grilled or baked -Eat 5-6 small meals a day instead of 3 big ones -LOTS of protein if your trying to build muscle

weightlifting shouldnt cause problems. however taking some weight lifting stuff can ruin your muscle growth. you are really young. gotta be careful. I say dont start taking supplements till your 18. just do work out and diet

how many pushups and sittups should I do??I do 50 pushups and about 75 crunches

Not a problem at all. I never ask questions on here, im here to give advice because I love it. So ask me anything whenever

I get very less time to do exercise but I still manage to do it everyday…please tell me a exercise which can help me in a very short time

Short time as in a little bit a day or short time as in what? You can’t gain muscle fast. It takes time for muscles to repair. you gotta give it rest. try no to work the same muscle everyday. give the muscles 48 hours of rest so they repair properly. so one day to push ups and sit ups pull ups, next day do curls and shoulder workouts and leg extensions or calf workouts. gotta work top and bottom man. do a lot of research online about home workouts. get a duffle bad and throw all kinds of stuff in it and curl it or put in on your stomache when you do sit ups to make it more intense

The idea that weight lifting can stunt growth comes from the fact that the growth plates at the end of bones can be damaged lifting weights because they are not as strong as they will be when the person is done growing.

Young people doing strength training should not lift heavy, they should stick to lighter weights and more repetitions. Also, careful attention should be given to form; jerking weights is less effective for building strength but stresses bones, ligaments, and joints more than controlled movements.

mandyloo, as much as I agree water is good, and I do drink a lot of water do to the fact that I hate anything carbonated such as ALL sodas, there is also a need for milk I say around 1 to 2 cups of milk a day is good for building muscle and bone strength
