How dangerous is it to drink alcohol after fasting for a month?

Question by Eh… No.: How dangerous is it to drink alcohol after fasting for a month?
I am going on the master cleanse diet, then going to juice fast, until April 16th (my birthday)

but I also want to go out on my birthday and drink. I would like to drink skyy vodka, mixed with sugar free red bull. Would I gain any weight back? Also, would it harm me or just get me drunk really fast? I would only drink a very small amount, until I am buzzed. Dont critizise my fasting or drinking, just give me the facts please.

Thanks <3

What exercise machine is best for diabetic patients?

Question by : What exercise machine is best for diabetic patients?
My dad is a type 2 diabetic patient. His doctor said to buy a exercise machine. Now he wants to know what type of machine to buy. Is the treadmill the best one?

Answer by SethSpeaks
What is ‘best’ depends on the person. If he has painful knees a treadmill isn’t good. If he has bad hips, a cycle isn’t good. He needs to try a few things out. I personally like treadmill, stationary cycle, and rowing machine best. I find the rowing machine the most comfortable for me. But any exercise machine is just fine.. the main thing is he needs to get a really good pair of exercise shoes that is for using only when using the machine (so they last a long time) and wear a really soft pair of socks. Diabetics can get sores on their feet easier than other people and you have to watch that.

Q&A: What is the correct technique for a deadlift using dumbbells?

Question by : What is the correct technique for a deadlift using dumbbells?
I have never done deadlifts before (I have only been going to the gym for about 4 months regularly now). Usually I just use dumbbells to bench press (I do 22kg, 8 reps, 4 sets).

Anyway, how do I do deadlifts with dumbbells? I don’t want to look like an idiot when doing it, and I also don’t want to have incorrect posture or injure myself.

Did you ever think about Google?

Just search for “dumbbell deadlift” and you’ll find more than enough videos and pics. Here’s one I just grabbed for you. –> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJ6dJLpiQ5M

How much would this weight equipment cost all together?

Question by : How much would this weight equipment cost all together?
Hey all, bare with me, i am very new to weight training.

I can’t seem to find a steady price.

Could you give me a estimate on the following equipment

-Bench press (nothing fancy, like this http://i.ehow.com/images/GlobalPhoto/Art… )

- A long bar plus weights (for the bench)

-Chin up bar (again, nothing fancy)

-punching bag (70lbs)

Thanks!

Answer by truly speaking
that can get expensive. why not check craigslist in your area like i did. I bought some of the same items. I got an olympic style bench ( wide stance ) with 7ft. olympic bar and 180lbs worth of steel weights for $ 120 all together. I’m going tomorrow to pick up a 80lb punching bag and stand for $ 70. so if i were you i would check craigslist first.

its all about calorie intake.. burn more calories than you take in and you’ll lose weight. eat more protein, and less sugars & junkfoods, and you’ll be good.
