ff_110 asked:


I want to be strong physically and I want to improve my cardiovascular fitness. Unfortunately, I don’t go to clubs anymore to run a lot. So I have to depend on myself every week on Saturdays and Sundays to run. Unless of course, there is a good sport I discover, I will take the chance.

But for now, what kind of thing would you recommend me to do if I want to improve my upper-body strength and cardiovascular fitness to do every week? Thanks in advance. Help much appreciated.

We all heard of the saying, “You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make it drink it.” I believe there is a way to motivate the horse to drink. In this case, its a lifetyle of fitness and healthy eating which is conducive to a more healthy longer life. Therefore, I am looking for serious answers. Thanks.

I’m interested in doing personal fitness. I figure I’d set my bar at the best of the best. I’ve looked at the Marine recruitment site and they offer not even a hint of what sort of fitness you’d need to be in.

Thanks for commenting.
By all means, share whatever fitness standards you know. Anything is better than not knowing anything.

How to pass my Vehicle Warrant of Fitness with my muffler being 103.7dp I think.

I’m not sure but I think the requirement is 95dp??

Ive heard that you can put socks etc in your muffler?
I already have the silencer bolted in.
It was too loud with that in aswell.

Its not extremely loud, I wonder how V8s etc get their WOFs?

Zwerg asked:


I am an athlete and I play pro basketball at my local club. I also am an occasional jogger and love to play other sports as well. But occasionally I go out on weekends and consume alot of alcohol. Im talking about beer, rum, tequila, vodka, and many other kinds! I dont get to the state of getting drunk, because I usually stop when I feel like Im getting there. I know that alcohol cant be good in any form, but I just would like to know what kind of damage are we talking about here? I have an almost perfect fitness level according to recent tests, but I wasnt consuming much alcohol then as well.

Now Im planning to take a vacation and I KNOW that ill be drinking alot, therfore I would like to know what are the given consequences if any with regards to my fitness level.

Thanks for the input.
