  • Is it possible to ever be truly flexible if you weren't born that way?

    I've never been one of those people who just are naturally bendy. I can do a split now after some times of trying. I never really stretched hard and practiced but i guess i did enough to be able to do it. I can only do a front split though. My question is, is there any way i could get to the point when i could pick my leg up standing and those kind of things. I can only do a split because of the pressure of my own weight pushing me into it. I do pole fitness and its hard for me to do pretty moves and splits when im on the pole and such because i dont have my own body weight putting pressure on me to do the split. Hopefully this makes sense and someone understands it! lol. Will i ever be able to do splits and such without needing so much weight to push me down.

  • Can you workout after a new tattoo?

    I recently just got my 3rd tattoo. The other tattoos aren't really in spots where clothing rubs so working out wasnt an issue but now this tattoo is on my ribs. I wear a sports bra under my tank top and usually work out very hard. I'm not sure when i can start working out though because the sports bras are tight and will probably rub on the tattoo as well as being sweaty. I can't not wear a sports bra for those of you who will suggest that because well...im a girl and have boobs and that just will be unpleasant *lol*. If anyone has a time frame please let me know!

  • Is it bad to do my arm workouts everyday?

    So i am doing a spartan race soon. I am really trying to build my upper body strength. I am actually trying to get enough arm strength to be able to do pull ups. I go to the gym almost everyday and workout and that includes my small arm circuit. I usually use free weights and do curls and lawnmowers. I also do push ups and burpees and a couple of arm machines. Then i get on the pull up bar and go as high as i can for a few sets. Someone recently just told me though that im not supposed to work my arms everyday. Does anyone know if this is true? If so what would be a good space pattern to workout my arms? Every other day? 2days arm work and 1 day off..or that such pattern? Please let me know!!

  • Car rolling backwards while in drive!?

    Okay so i JUST got my first car..used obviously because i cant afford a new car. Its a 2003 volkswagen and it has 50,000 miles on it. Today my car was at the end of my driveway on a small hill..i went to go move it forward and when i put it in drive and let off the break..it started rolling backwards..a decent amount tho..so i hit the brakes..and let off and it started rolling back more! Then i just let off the brakes and hit the gas and it jumped forward...but still..i know a car isnt supposed to do that..but how bad is it really? Something that can maybe be fixed?

    Additionally...i am NOT a new driver..ive been driving for 4 years..just havent been able to get a car being a college student...and yes the car is automatic..not stick shift..i know cars are supposed to roll back a litttle..but it felt like if i didnt hit the brakes that the car would have just kept rolling backwards all the way down my driveway and into the street lol..dont they have some kinda component that stops them from fully reversing like that in drive?

Either way, i was wondering if its normal for heart rate and blood pressure to change significantly for a day at a time or so.

  • HPV and the new guyy. ADVICE!?

    I was just in a year and a half relationship. We recently broke up. During my relationship i had a pap test done and it came back "abnormal". I had a few more done and one came back high risk and the last one i had didnt come back high risk but still abnormal. I am into this new guy and weve been taking it slow but i would like to consider having sex. I always use condoms. I dont want to tell him this because he wont want to talk to me anymore im sure. Basically what im asking is, is there anyway to protect against transmitting the HPV and how serious is it that it just came back "abnormal"..ive received my guardasil shots in the year 2010 right before i went to college.

  • Working out and training for Spartan Race!?

    So im going to be doing a spartan race in a few months. If you dont know what it is..google it. Its basically a crazy intense 5K uphill obstacle course. I have been running but some days i need break days from running. My question is, is it bad to just do 100 situps randomly or 100 push ups randomly? Im used to running and stretching and warming up and then finishing with lifting or something. But on days i dont run is it alright to just go straight into strength training stuff?
