Rachel B asked:


I’m a teen, and luckily for me I have always been on the Light/Petite side but for lacrosse I need some good ways to easily at home build some muscle so I’m not thrown off my line with a brush of an elbow if you know what I mean-any suggestions?

I love horseback riding and I would like to build the muscles required to become a better rider, but I don’t have my own horse. I ride about once a week, but because it is so expensive I can’t ride more then that. I also play volleyball, which help wiht some muscles, but they’re not quite the same ones. I’ve also checked into Exercise Machines that are supposed to be horse simulators, but they are extremely expensive (Around $2,000). Any ideas as to what I can do?

asked:


I’ve been doing a lot of running and biking. I want to balance out the aerobic exercise with some strength training. Sure, I want to build some muscle , but I don’t want to keep growing muscle and eventually wind up oversized- I want to build muscle to a normal extent and from there build up muscle endurance as much as I can. How can I do this?

Fieldrunnerbob asked:


I swim 6 days a week at a fairly high intensity for 1 and a half to 2 hours. I also do heavy lifting about 4 times a week and am 15. Does swimming the day after weights stop the muscle I’ve broken down in the gym from healing, or does it aid the recovery? Also does swimming in general inhibit muscle growth or make it easier to build muscle?

Sophie asked:


It seems like if you want to get big you must lift weights, eat protein and lay off the cardio.
If you want to lose fat, you have to diet and do cardio, but this burns muscle too.
What can I do besides steroids to burn fat while I’m trying to build muscle?
Thanks.
