How do I know how much exercise I am getting?

exercise
Trixie asked:


I’m such a perfectionist sometimes. I freak out because I can’t measure how much exercise I do, how many calories I burn and such when I do certain activities, like cleaning my home or walking or such. How am I supposed to know how much I’m supposed to eat (with the additional amount I need when I exercise), if I can’t measure the amount of exercise I am doing? How can I lose weight sucessfully? This is really exasperating me.

How can I be motivated to exercise despite depression?

exercise
olivia2589 asked:


I have depression, and I find that as much as I want to exercise and lose weight, I am having a difficult time getting motivated due to my depression. Exercise does help me feel better and help with my depression, but does anyone have any tips on getting motivated in the beginning and continuing an exercise routine even when feeling discouraged?

What is this exercise machine called and where can I find one?

exercise
Kade asked:


Is there any such thing as an exercise machine where it’s the pedals of a bicycle and that’s all? I want to exercise by biking, but I don’t want to use an actual bike and I don’t want a stationary bike. Do they make the bike pedals so you can pedal in an ordinary chair? Does one even exist? If so, what’s it called.

If you exercise in the morning, should you eat before you work out?

exercise
Kasm asked:


I wake up every morning at 8 to exercise. Should I eat something before I workout? If so how long should I wait after eating to exercise? I don’t really have time in the morning so Im planning on just waking up and working out on a empty stomach.

Any opinions?

How much does exercise have to do with mental sharpness and memory?

exercise
Peace69 asked:


I know I’m answering my own question, but I would like to know other people’s experiences with exercise and feeling mentally sharp. Please let me know of differences in mental acuity between weeks or months of not exercising and exercising regularly. I’m particularly interested in those people who have lost a lot of weight and the memory performance differences between being overweight and being at normal weight.
