HTC T-Mobile G1 Extended Battery 2300 mAh. Where to Buy, Weight Tests

April 29th, 2010

Posted by admin in weight equipment | 21 Comments »

I conducted a week-long test on my new 2300 mAh extended battery bought on eBay.

After medium use of browser, WiFi, GPS, Bluetooth and phone calls (maybe 12 hours total), I am happy to report that the G1’s low battery life with the OEM battery (that comes with the phone) has been resolved!

With just three hours left to three full days, I had 7% remaining power. Three days is far better than the 12 to 15 hours use I might be lucky to get with the OEM battery.

Best part is that the battery and cover cost $18 total (shipping included) on eBay! I provide the link to the seller on eBay, in the video. But in case that does not show up, it’s eBay seller meig2006

I was a bit cautious of buying a battery from a Chinese seller (lots of low quality batteries coming from China, as you know), but this seller had great feedbacks from people who had bought this exact setup. Besides, at $18 it was worth the gamble.

As a bonus in the video I conduct weight comparisons on a postal scale of the phone with the OEM and extended batteries.

Here is the link to the eBay seller I mention:

30-Minute Workout Plan with Ivy (Core & Balance)

April 29th, 2010

Posted by admin in cardio equipment | 3 Comments »

To keep from getting bored Ive switched my 30-minute workout plan once again. I also actually hurt my back recently too (not sure doing what? But, the pain has been going into my thigh and sciatic nerve and its very, very annoying—not excruciating—just highly aggravating. Sort of like someone is buzzing in your ear ALL. DAY.LONG.) Anyway, because of the back/ leg issue Ive been doing a lot more core exercises these days. So, this workout recruits a lot of stabilizing muscles from your back, hips and abdominal region plus incorporates a good deal of balancing exercises. By the way, I also bought the book Pain-Free by Pete Ecosque and Ive been doing his recommended e-cises (which are basically stretches) in addition to my 30-minute workout program and they seem to really be helping a lot.

My 30-minute workout program below not only works your core, but its a full-body workout that combines strength, flexibility and endurance exercises. Its a circuit training routine and the perfect way to get functionally fit in a very short amount of time. I recommend doing this workout 3 times a week. This is very doable as I know everybody can squeeze a 30-minute workout in (especially one that you can do at home) at least 3 times a week!! Getting physically fit need not be a full time job.

Be sure to concentrate on the movements and dont rely on momentum. Its always better to do the exercise with correct form and to focus on quality over quantity of reps or the amount of weight lifted. Take your time to learn the proper form and dont use excessively heavy weights.

Equipment:
The only equipment youll need are 1 pair of dumbbells.
Beginners will want to use 3 pound dumbbells and advanced exercisers will want to use 5 pound dumbbells. Follow the below workout program 3 days a week to get fitter, firmer, faster!

Ivys 30-Minute Workout Program:

•10 minute cardio-warm up. Choose any cardio exercise you like. If you are doing this exercise at home you can go outside and do a brisk walk or jog lightly. You can also jump rope, dance, climb stairs, ride a stationary bike, etc. If you are at a gym, start the workout on your favorite cardio equipment (treadmill, bike, elliptical trainer, stair stepper, etc). For the cardio warm-up you want to increase your heart rate and work hard enough that its difficult to carry on a conversation.

•Ivys 10-minute Circuit Workout. Perform the following sequence of exercises two times throughwithout resting! Watch the video demo first to see how to do the exercises properly. You can then print the workout and do it anytime, anywhere!

To print the workout go to www.HotandHealthyLiving.com

1. Side Lunge, Leg Abduction + Knee Hold = 1 rep
8 reps Left Leg then 8 reps Right Leg

2. Plank Position + Alternating 2 Knees to Chest + Push-Up = 1 rep
12 reps

3. Alternating Straight Forward Leg Lifts with Alternating Straight Scissor Arms
3-5 pounds / 20 reps

4. Single Leg Balancing Deadlift (Hold weights in left arm when standing on right leg and hold weights in right arm when standing on left leg):
6-10 pounds (hold 2 dumbbells in one hand) / 8 reps Left/ Right

5. Tricep Dips:
16 slow reps/ 8 fast reps

6. Sissy Squats with Knees on the Ground
15 reps

7. Seated Tricep Pulses (with straight arms behind your back and palms facing up)
100 pulses

8. Side Step Plie with Upright Row and Toe Drag:
3-5 pounds / 14 reps

Besides Sit-ups and Push-ups, What are some good non-equipment work outs that aren’t cardio?

April 29th, 2010

Posted by admin in work out equipment | 4 Comments »

Just wondering, I already know about dips n reverse push ups..

Well, the arms are kinda hard. In basic training you do a lot of overhead arm claps. Which is basically what it sounds like, just keep your elbows straight and arms stretched out to the sides do about 50 of those it’ll smoke ya. For the abs you can do some crunches. Another twist to it is to cross your leg and bring your opposite elbow to your knee. Leg lifts and flutter kicks are good too. Lay on your back, with your hands under the small of your back keep your legs at leas 6 inches off the ground, raise them and lower them about 15 times. Flutter kicks is the same thing just kick your legs up and down with out moving your knees! Good luck hope is smokes ya!=)

what is the best way for a teenage to lose weight if you dont have equipment?

April 29th, 2010

Posted by admin in weight equipment | 4 Comments »

i’m 17 years old and i really need help losing weight, i dont have equipment, and i have no way to the YMCA. i really dont like running because i lose my breath really fast so is their any thing you can tell me.

The best way to lose weight or maintain a healthy weight is through changing your eating habits and exercising regularly.

1. Choose whole grains.

2. Drink plenty of water.

3. Choose lean meats and fish.

4. Know the portion sizes for your calorie target.

5. Limit fats to an average of 15 grams per meal.

6. Choose fresh fruits and vegetables whenever possible.

7. Work out for no less that 45 minutes, 4-5 days a week.

8. Select foods with less than 3 grams of fat per 100 calories.

9. Choose pretzels, baked chips, fat-free popcorn instead of fries and chips.

10. Avoid foods with partially hydrogenated oils, trans-fats and high-fructose corn syrup.

11. Choose cereal, bread, crackers or chips that contain 2 or more grams of fiber per 100 calories.

12. Choose fat-free or low-fat variety of foods especially when it comes to dairy products (milk, cheese, and yogurt).

I need some help on weight loss and strength training….?

April 29th, 2010

I currently do Zumba once a week and do strength training/cardio at the gym once a week as well with a personal training. All of this is rather costly AND I would like to add more exercise sessions each week, but with two children and being a single parent, I have little to no time for myself. I was thinking of getting some small equipment (ie. hand weights, etc.) and some DVDs for motivation and trying to do some stuff at home in the mornings before the kids wake up. Any suggestions on what I should buy or use? Please remember that I live in a duplex, so too much jumping around and my poor neighbor might freak out! :) Thanking you in advance!

Small weights are an excellent idea. You might, instead, want to buy a complete workout set; a bench press with a barbell, a curl bar, and dumbells with enough weights and collars to make it all work out (play on words intended). Another idea you may want to try is to get wrist and ankle weights to wear around the house. You can exercise while you do the dishes, make the beds, and walk around. You can use these same weights when you go shopping. You can even do curls with them on when you change dhiapers and play with the kids. You must remember to eat healthy too. I hope all this works for you.
