Expert: Charles Staley - 11/2/2009
Question I'm 14 y/o, 5'5 and 126 poundss.
I've never worked out before, but i believe that this would be a good time to start since lately I've been feeling more and more uncomfortable about my body, & its beginning to influence my everday life =|
I've even measured my body fat percentage online, and it came out to be unhealthily high =\
How much exercise do i need to get (and maintain later on) to being about 110 pounds? What do my calories burned/intake need to be in order to achieve this? (any other information about this would be greatly appreciated)
thanks =]
Answer Hi Lynne, thanks for writing!
First, you cannot measure your bodyfat online- not with any semblance of accuracy anyway..
Second, I cannot determine if you even could or should weigh 110 pounds, not to mention how to do it. This service is designed to answer questions, not provide free services. However, what i can say is that you'll need to start reading, exploring, etc. When I was your age there was no internet, so you have a great resource available to you here.
If you'd like, I host a free discussion forum where you can ask questions, get support, etc. We have a lot of very smart (and fit!) women there who's love to help out. The site is http://www.TeamStaley.com . Hope to see you there!
