Can I do cardio exercises after an appendicitis operation? Although it's been 15 weeks, and you and I both know that it may be safe to start on some sort of an exercise program. I would strongly suggest for you to give him a call to make sure that you got an "OK" to do so. If anything, he can at least recommend you to see a trainer or a physical therapist, etc. Good luck! |

Exercises that make the 'Core' strong @Moses Great point. Totally agree with you regarding using a knowledgeable spotter for proper form and safety is best if possible. |

What can I do to prevent my (outer) shins from tightening while running? @AkinOkegbile I was just trying to make sure we all on the same page when it comes to giving medical advice. I think it's great that you had experience somewhat a similar case with Jer; however, first of all, I don't think it's his MTSS, but rather the anterior compartment syndrome. Secondly, when it comes to medial advice, I think it's best and safest to have firmed scientific evidence. But I think it's great that you are helping out though. Keep up the good work! |

What can I do to prevent my (outer) shins from tightening while running? @AkinOkegbile You said, "and shin splints are definitely a muscular pain nothing to do with the tibia...your tibia hurting is not shin splits." Actually the tibia is 90% of your shin, so it is the shin splints. That is the reason why they changed the name from shin splints to MTSS (medial tibia stress syndrome), which is actually a stress reaction of the medial border of the tibia. What article are you talking about for me to read? That's not an article, is is just a random answer from the internet without any scientific evidence. |

What can I do to prevent my (outer) shins from tightening while running? @Jer Have you thought about getting a sports physical therapist looking at your running mechanics and possible shoe wear? I recommend a PT who has lots of experience about treating runners. Also, if not you might want your PT to perform the thorough evaluation to make sure your piriformis and your hamstring muscle on that side are not tight. This is to make sure your nerve and blood supply to the anterior compartment is sufficient. It might be as simple as stretching the correct muscles. |

What can I do to prevent my (outer) shins from tightening while running? @ Akin Okegbile It's nice of you to help out, but I think you are not reading his description thoroughly. He complains of the anterior lateral border of his shin, not the posterior medial. |

What can I do to prevent my (outer) shins from tightening while running? Any other symptoms besides tightness? Any tingling, numbness, leg pain or falling asleep at times, especially with more running activities? |

Low room temperature and weight loss @xyz I'm sorry for being "retarded!" I think you misunderstood what I was trying to ask. I was trying to ask for the evidence of weight loss with colder temperature. Meaning at what temperature is recommended for us to have a significant weight loss? We all know that the colder the temperature, the more energy is being utilized, but at what temperature. Think about it, it's like saying caffein helps with weight loss, but at what amount of caffein is needed to have this weight loss effect is the question. |

Low room temperature and weight loss +1 for the evidence. Thanks! However, would you agree that going from 70-75 degrees to 68 degrees won't make a difference in terms of weight loss, since the study suggested going from 71 degrees to 60 degrees? |

Low room temperature and weight loss @xyz Thats a good point; however, you need to keep in mind that when you make a statement like this, you should have some science to support it. Also, please provide the number of degrees in temperature - what is the ideal temperature from science recommended (the ideal environment) so that humans can start seeing significant weight loss by just sitting there? Is it at below 40 degrees F or from 50-60 degrees F, etc. Thanks! |

Low room temperature and weight loss @xyz Can you explain to me what you meant by "being in a colder environment implies that 1. will increase?" Thanks! |
