I have been working out for over a couple of months now and am trying to loose weight. My trainer suggested that I have Whey Protien (isolates) to help build muscle. Is it safe or does it have any side effects?

Hi...I have been doing a cardio and weight training on alternate days. Usually just run on the cardio days. I am heavier on the lower body and wanted to lose the inches. Is cyclying better for losing weight on the lower body? Or is it worse?

I have just started Yoga...and practice around 36 suryanamaskars during our yoga session. Although I do feel a little tired after doing them...its not half as tiring as going to the gym. I read on the net that it burns 13.9 calories per suryanamaskar...which is a little hard to believe! Does it really?

google it.. every site says something different...

I know that there is no such thing as spot reduction. But I have been told contradictory things about doing squats. I need to lose weight on the lower body...so do squats do more harm than good? What are the other exercises to tone the hips?

The article says smoothies are bad! I make smoothies with cow's milk, water and two table spoons of strawberry crush. How can that be bad!?!?!

Wat exactly are leg raises and lifts? how many should one do?

Hey...I had a similar problem..came down from 72 kg to 62...then it didn't go down! I started Yoga..suryanamaskars, different asans and pranyam for about an hour...helped me a great deal...down to 57 now!
