comment One best exercise to keep body fit!
There really is no "best" exercise. It really depends on your needs. This question is pretty broad and general which doesn't fit the site too well. I suggest doing some research on your own, browse the site, and get an idea of what you want to do. If you have a more specific question about something, please feel free to ask it.

comment Random pain in my right knee and elbow
Unfortunately, this site is not the place for people to diagnose each other or provide medical advice as outlined in our faq. It is a dangerous position, and we certainly do not want to do any further harm or provide wrong information. Best of luck with your injury.

Can you rent them? The places around where I live won't let you use whatever shoes you want (unless they are climbing shoes).

Wouldn't product pages have this kind of information? These kinds of questions aren't suited for this site.

comment Can I do cardio exercises after an appendicitis operation?
This may be too individualized to be meaningful to others. Erring on the side of caution, I wouldn't want someone else to take information from here that might cause them harm so I'm going to close it.

comment Why is body shivering after I wake up?
Is there really such a connection with exercising at night and sleeping? I'd suggest consulting a professional of some sort. We can only make so many guesses and not helpful ones at that.

comment What are some scientific and education fitness magazines?
Your question is rather open-ended and is inviting multiple answers, all of which could be debatable and opinionated. I'm not convinced this is a good question for this site.

comment How can I measure my fitness at home without any instruments?
@Moses I've removed the extra questions to keep it inline with the title, but the question still needs some work as it is still rather broad.

If you have more questions about this site, how your question fits, and the scope and faq of the site, you and everyone else here should bring this discussion to the Physical Fitness Meta. I'm locking this question until this question's content can be resolved on the Meta rather than there.
