QuestionHow can an eight-year-old exercise safely?Community AnswerFor children, it's often best that they do sports or get exercise by "play" - playing tag with friends, swimming, riding bikes, etc. If they want to do more traditional forms of exercise, an adult/guardian should be present to guide and supervise.

QuestionWhat exercises should I do daily?Community AnswerAnything from cardio to weightlifting (if you have access to the right equipment). Running is an easy way to fit in some exercise if you are busy and don't have access to a gym. I would also recommend squeezing in some squats and ab exercises (like sit ups) whenever you have a chance.

QuestionWhat are the best fat-burner exercises for a 14-year-old female?Tom De BackerTop AnswererTo burn fat, you want your heart rate to stay above your beats per minute at rest. Elevated heart rate = fat burned. The longer you keep your heart rate up, the more fat is burned. It doesn't have to be super high either, just a little elevation, as in a light 3k run, is enough. So anything that raises your heart rate is good. Examples are: swimming, jogging, running, rope skipping, interval training, cycling, dance class, acro yoga, yoga, zumba, basketball, etc. Doing strength training quickly and in quick succession keeps the heart rate up, so 5 sets of 12 push-ups with 30 seconds rest in between is also good.

QuestionWhat about exercises for stomach muscles?Peter CCommunity AnswerDo sit ups, crunches, and leg-lifts. But if it's a six pack you're after, don't just do abdominal exercises as it will only make your stomach bigger. You also need to burn the subcutaneous fat in front of your abdominal muscles by increasing your metabolism.
