March 22, 2014: "Main to expert ho gaya" (I've become an expert) said my four year old nephew. Today I was exercising at home on a mat while watching calisthenics videos on my laptop in front of me. I was doing push-ups and planks. During that time, my nephew visited with his parents. I also made him do exercises. He's an energetic person and liked doing the exercises. He was also watching the videos and liking them and even told me to play other videos that were showing on the side on YouTube. 

After exercising, I took him to the swings and slides in the park. I've taken him before and he likes that. When he tried getting on a slide, he said that he can't do it. I told that he can do it. He had to first climb a metallic mesh and then there was a slide on the other side. I showed him that how he has to grip the mesh and move up. He then tried it. My hands were below and above him in case his foot or hand might slip.

He was able to climb the first time itself with me guiding him. We did this few more times and then I stood a little back and let him do it. After a while of he doing it by himself, when he reached the top of the slide, he said that "main to expert ho gaya" (I've become an expert). 

I shared this with his parents on which they told me that he's learning new words at school. I wish that humans would learn increasingly well. 

God, please help me. I'm sure that if we'll support and guide the mankind increasingly well then there's seemingly infinite potential in humans to pursue the seemingly infinite value in our universe.  

I'll be sharing below calisthenics videos showing simple and more advanced body weight exercises I wish that you'll also share this blog post with your family and friends. Even if you don't have a good gym, you can do so many exercises with your body weight!

Calisthenics is the name given to repetitive exercises that use the resistance of your own body to build strength, increase flexibility and burn fat.

No equipment or weights are used in calisthenics, and the exercises can be performed anywhere there is a floor and enough space to move in. The benefits of calisthenics effects are wide-reaching.

Eating Disorder: Warning Signs............

It is important to know that it is very difficult to spot the warning signs of an eating disorder. In many cases, the person undergoing it doesn’t even realise that they have an eating disorder. In such situations, one must compare behavioural warning signs along with physical and psychological signs to determine the presence of an eating disorder. Although, all these signs may not be the same for every person, watch out for the following signs.

Behavioural Signs
Extreme dieting: skipping meals, fasting, replacing food with fluids etc
Binge eating: excessive eating, overeating, hoarding food etc
Self induced vomiting: frequent trips to the bathroom after every meal
Laxative use or abuse
Excessive exercising: refusing to stop exercising, exercising when injured etc
Avoiding social situations that involve food
Frequent excuses to avoid meals
Throwing out food deceptively

Physical signs
Extreme weight loss
Swollen jaw line or damaged teeth because of frequent vomiting
Disturbed menstruation
Constant fatigue
Frequent dizziness spells

Psychological signs
Very conscious about your body shape and appearance
Fear of weight gain
Constant complaining about being fat when they are probably underweight
Sensitivity to criticism about body appearance or eating habits
Nervousness and anxiety during meal times
Guilt or self-loathing after eating
Social withdrawal

Women prefer to cuddle after sex, but men would rather doze off.  Most women consider this a sign as a man’s lack of interest in the relationship. But, there is a biological reason that men tend to feel sleepy after raunchy or satisfying sex.

Post-coitus sleep is not a myth, but there is research that proves men experience exhaustion and need to sleep after sexual intercourse. Different hormones and chemicals are released in the body after ejaculation that induces sleep and narrows the chance for men to engage in a second round of sexual intercourse.

These are the chemicals and hormones released after ejaculation that makes men fall asleep:

1) Prolactin: Sexual satisfaction releases this hormone, prolactin which induces drowsiness. If you want to counter this hormone and jump back into bed dopamine is the way to go. Dopamine is a mood booster that reduces prolactin in the body.

2) Oxytocin: This love hormone is also released and helps the body to relax. This makes men feel sleepy after a satisfying sexual experience.

3) Vasopressin: This hormone tightens the blood vessels and plays an important role in homeostasis of the body. This hormone is directly released in the brain and tends to relax the body. 

4) Neurotransmitters – Serotonin, Norepinephrine and Nitric Oxide: These are the main neurotransmitters that relax the body. Nitric oxide is released in the penis.

5) Physical exercise: Men generally exert the body more during sex as compared to women. So, men tire themselves out more during sex.

These easy tricks will maximize your strength-training workout results and wake up your muscles.

Shake Up Your Workout
If you've stopped getting results from your strength-training routine, it's time to shake things up. Pick any of these five simple strategies to wake up your muscles.
1. Move Quickly from Upper to Lower Body
Alternate upper- and lower-body exercises without rest in between to up your caloric burn exponentially, . Moving quickly from biceps curls to squats, for example, can raise your heart rate by forcing blood to shunt from your arms to your legs. Work this technique into your routine once a week.
2. Drop the Weight
Squeeze every ounce of effort out of your muscles with drop sets, . This technique recruits more muscle fibers for faster results. Start with a weight heavy enough to fatigue muscles in 10 reps. Use a slightly lighter weight for a second set. Then go even lighter for a third set (for example: 10 pounds to 8 pounds to 5 pounds). Do this only once a month, as it can cause significant muscle soreness.
3. Work Two Muscle Groups at Once
Save time and burn more calories with a series of total-body moves targeting several muscle groups together, Try adding triceps presses to squats or front shoulder raises to lunges. This technique isn't highly fatiguing, so try it once a week, .
4. Balance on One Leg
Using one foot instead of two during strength moves will recruit the muscles in your core, helping you sculpt flat, sexy abs. Stand on one leg for everything from shoulder presses to squats. Because you have to work harder to maintain your balance, you may need to use slightly lighter weights with this technique, .
5. Team Up on One Muscle
Zap your most persnickety parts into shape by doing back-to-back exercises for the same muscle group. For example, blast your legs with a squat followed by a lunge, . To attack your abs, do bicycles followed by reverse crunches. This pushes your muscles to total exhaustion, so don't try it more than twice a month.

Babies have more bones than adults.

Babies are born with about 300 bones.  Adults have 206. As babies grow, some of their bones fuse together. Some infant bones are made entirely of soft, flexible tissue called cartilage that’s slowly replaced by hard bone as the baby develops.

Your funny bone is in your:

Even though it’s really connected to your upper arm bone (the humerus), you may not find hitting your funny bone a laughing matter. If you’ve ever hit your elbow in that certain spot, you know it can cause a weird tingling or a dull pain. But never mind the name -- your funny bone isn’t a bone at all. It’s a nerve that runs down the humerus to the inside part of your elbow.

When do bones stop growing?

Bones usually stop growing when you're in your late 20s, but they keep changing. As you age, bones lose density and get thinner and easier to break. You can help keep them healthy by getting plenty of calcium and vitamin D, and by doing exercises that keep you on your feet.

Bones make red and white blood cells.

Bones have a few different jobs. They give our bodies structure and allow us to move. They protect our organs from damage -- your skull protects your brain and your ribs protect your heart, lungs, and liver. Your bones also make red blood cells, which carry proteins and oxygen to tissues, and white blood cells, which help fight infections.

Which bone gets broken the most often?   

The clavicle, better known as the collar bone, leads the list of breaks. It can be easily fractured by hits to the shoulder or by falling on your hand or arm. Breaks in the hands and arms are common as well, because we often use them to try and stop falls.

The bubbles in soft drinks harm your bones.

Let's put this old wives’ tale to rest. The bubbly carbonation in soft drinks won’t hurt your bones, but that doesn’t mean drinking soda is a good idea. Some studies show that the caffeine and phosphorus in colas can weaken your bones. If you want to drink something good for your bones, choose milk or a beverage with extra calcium, like fortified orange juice.

How many bones in your body are not connected to other bones?

Remember a song called “Dem Bones?” That old tune might have helped you remember that the leg bone is connected to the knee bone. But it sure didn’t mention the hyoid, a V-shaped bone at the base of your tongue. The hyoid is the only bone that isn’t connected to another one.

Is smoking bad for your bones?

It’s well known that cigarettes are bad for your lungs, heart, and overall health. But they’re also bad for your bones. Nicotine and other chemicals in cigarettes make it harder for your body to absorb the calcium your bones need to stay strong. Cigarettes lower vitamin D levels, too.
