• Answer:

  I should be a guru, the things I've learned and researched in the last 6 months - wow! Although I've spent loads of hours researching the net. And then applying it into my routine. Ultimately, what I would need is more informations regarding the new methods. That is what are the general pitfalls and risks that newbies and professionals experience in between different types of exercises and martial arts and sports. Because morning exercises and bmi is easy to find out. What we also need is to know how to motivate oneself to push beyond our comfort levels. For me, motivation has always come from looking at well designed sports videos like this one: http://www.hadritkd.co.uk/Video_Clips-Hadri_Taekwondo_Video_Clips.htm But that wasn't until someone who I respected as a knowledgable old man, told me that he was still strong because he was a boxer in his young age. So, I guess we could ask the people who do they look up to, and what type of sports did those folks did as a youth. Also for you guys to make a review of the most cost/time/health/minimal-risk effective methods of getting fit, or getting to a certain weight level, or towards a certain type of professionalism in a sport/martial/fitness. And make that blog headlined in the sports section so people can give an answer/review back to it. Also a full up blog/review about sports nutrition, from eastern to western methods, to organic to what not. From bone and joint conditionity, to concentrated nutrition. What I would also like from yahoo answers is surveys of yahoo answer users of what type of sports/activity they do. And for yahoo answers to make section reports of the type of questions being made over time... unless if you already do that.
