article: Moderate aerobic activity, paired with weight training to increase muscle mass, has been shown effective to reduce belly fat even if overall weight remains the same. Different kinds of aerobic activity include brisk walking, running, aerobics dance classes, swimming, or hiking. Because you're making a lifestyle change, make sure you find an exercise program that works for you. Moderate exercise works best. To know if your exercise rate is moderate, see if you can talk while exercising. If you can talk, you're exercising at a moderate rate. If you can loudly sing a favorite song, you should move more quickly. Strength training, which includes weight lifting, stomach crunches, etc. builds lean muscle mass. Because muscles burn more calories than fat does, your body will use calories more efficiently. Doing strength training at least three days per week, paired with moderate aerobic exercise, has been connected to losing belly fat. Exercises that firm and tone the stomach muscles will not eliminate belly fat by themselves. In fact, stomach crunches have little effect on the fat that's carried around the belly. You don't have to belong to a gym to do strength training or weight lifting. You can follow a video at home. Simple body weight exercises like the plank, push ups, lunges, the bridge, squats, calf raises, and arm circles all build muscle. Stress triggers release of the hormone cortisol, and cortisol both reduces muscle mass and increases the accumulation of belly fat. You'll likely decrease your belly fat by engaging in meditation, because you'll lower your stress level. Doing guided meditations, mindfulness meditations, or yoga serve to decrease your stress levels. You should never feel sharp, stabbing pain when doing yoga. Stretch only as it feels good to you. Consider taking a meditation or yoga class to help you learn the basics of yoga postures. Being well-rested means you're less stressed, and less likely to gain belly weight. Having enough sleep has benefits for your overall well-being: your mood will be better, your stress level lower, and your attention will improve. Most people need between 7 to 9 hours of good sleep per night, but some people may need more. Teens need at least 9 hours of sleep per night, and younger children need 10 hours. Try to go to sleep at the same time every night, and get good quality sleep so that you feel rested when you wake up. Avoid drinking alcoholic beverages in the evening, as this lowers the quality of your sleep. Losing visceral fat depends on changing lifestyle factors, including diet and exercise. This is a long-term process. The most effective weight-loss programs aren't quick, but rather take place over time. Don't worry so much about the scales when you're trying to lose belly fat. The changes you're making will replace fat with muscle, which weighs more, so you're likely to notice changes in the way your clothes fit before you notice changes on the scale. You'll feel better as a result of making lifestyle changes, which won't necessarily show up on your scales.

article: To find the sex of your rabbit, examine the rabbit's external genitalia. While he is on his back, part the fur between his legs. You or your assistant should gently hold him in place while you part the fur with your hand. If he starts to squirm too much, try to sooth him by talking to him and petting him. You don't want him to get hurt while you are working. Male rabbits have testicles, which are visible on the outside of their bodies. These are located in his groin between the back legs. Rabbit testicles are long and narrow, rather than round and ball-like as on dogs. Look for two torpedo-shaped bulges, one on either side below the skin. They are usually slightly furred and purple in color. The scrotum can be covered in fur, so you may need to dampen the fur in this area with water to make the testicles clearer to see. Testicles can usually be detected from 10 weeks of age. Before this age, they can be tiny and hard to spot reliably. However, no matter the rabbit's age, it's easy to check before you look for the penis. In a well-developed adult male rabbit, the answer will be obvious because you can spot his testicles right away. If you don't spot testicles straight away, be aware that frightened rabbits can pull their testicles into the abdomen and make them disappear. Talk to the rabbit, stroke his side, and see if you can encourage him to relax. Then check a second time. If you still don't see them, it is inconclusive. Check the genital openings instead. You now need to look to see if your rabbit has a vulva or a penis. To locate these, gently part the fur between the back legs until you identify a small mound. This area is the vent and contains the opening to the anus and the reproductive tract. To see it more clearly, apply gentle pressure on either side, which opens up the area and makes things clearer to see. The genital opening is the one farthest from the tail. Apply gentle pressure with a finger and thumb on either side of the opening. If the rabbit is female, you will see a slit-like structure, commonly described as a letter I. If the rabbit is male you will see a round structure, which can be described as an O. The opening closest to the tail is the anus. This is identical in both males and females. If you look closely, you can check it is the anus by watching for the muscular winking of the anal ring. If you want to be extra sure, or it you cannot distinguish between the I and the O, you can double check your finding. Apply gentle pressure at the base of the opening, pushing gently towards the rabbit's back. If a penis is present, it will sometimes protrude and become more obvious as a tube-like structure. If a vulva is present, the lips tend to peel back in a petal shape. There are some people that say you can tell the sex of a rabbit by looking at his physical characteristics. Although mature adult bucks can have a heavier skull than female rabbits, this is not a reliable way to sex a rabbit. Unfortunately, the external physical characteristics, such as the size and shape, are not distinctive enough between the sexes to make this useful with regards to determining the sex of your rabbit. Always check the rabbit's genitalia to be completely sure of the sex of your rabbit. Checking your rabbit's sex at home is usually effective. If it is important that you know the sex of your rabbit for breeding or other purposes, take your rabbit to your vet for verification. The vet will be able to tell for sure what the sex of your rabbit is. If you have multiple rabbits, you can take them at the same time.

Tanning is often considered a sign of health, beauty, or the ability and the time to spend time in the sun. Tanning is, however, associated with skin aging and skin cancer. It is also important to understand that tanning does not protect a person from sunburn. If you are going out into the sun, wear sunscreen, especially if you are trying to avoid more getting more of a tan. The American Academy of Dermatology recommends a broad spectrum sunscreen with UVA and UVB protection, and that is at least SPF 30 or higher. The sunscreen should also be water resistant. Some exposure to the sun allows the skin to manufacture an important vitamin, vitamin D. To get the right amount, you should get moderate exposure of the face, arms, legs, or back from the summer sun for about five to 30 minutes. This can be done between the hours of 10 AM and 3 PM at least twice a week without sunscreen if you have darker or already tanned skin. If you are lighter skinned, avoid getting into the sun during peak hours and instead allow some moderate exposure to the sun outside of the peak sun hours to supply the needed Vitamin D without significantly increasing the risk of skin damage or skin cancer. The New Zealand dermatology association suggests that lighter skinned individuals can spend five minutes in the sun before 11AM and after 4 PM, which are the peak sun hours. Because of the light tone of their skin, lighter skinned individuals achieve healthy levels of Vitamin D during this time period. Darker skinned individuals can spend 20 minutes outside the peak hours and achieve healthy levels of Vitamin D. The American Academy of Dermatology does not recommend any sun exposure other than the incidental exposure you might get by getting your mail, walking your dog, going between your parked car and your office, or any other normal, everyday activity. Sunscreen does decrease the amount of Vitamin D production, but the benefits of protecting the skin are important to understand. Since there are so many guidelines and issues surrounding sun exposure and time in the sun, you can get your Vitamin D from other sources and avoid too much sun exposure. There are also food sources of Vitamin D, including fish and fish oil, yogurt, cheese, liver, and eggs. You can also try other foods and drinks that are fortified with Vitamin D, such as breakfast cereals, milk, and juice. When dealing with your skin and the sun, it is important to understand the risks of skin cancer so you can avoid them as much as possible. If you think you have skin cancer or might be at a high risk, talk to your doctor immediately to get tested or learn the best preventative measures for your particular case. Risk factors that increase your chance of skin cancer include: Fair skin A history of sunburns. Excessive sun exposure Sunny or high-altitude climates Pre-existing moles The presence of precancerous skin lesions A personal or family history of skin cancer A weakened or suppressed immune system Exposure to medical radiation Exposure to certain cancer-causing substances
