      ive had the same problem you need to do more then just run. you need to run with weight you need to do sprints and run on hills and every now and then do a fun run so like a 5 - 7 mile jog get that nice and easy burn

    I was in the army. If you're a female, you might consider the Air Force if you want to join.
    This goes for anyone. If you got ideas of joining because you want to store up money to go to college,
    you should consider what you want to learn and then find the school you want to go to. The Education Center will help you find one. You should prepare before you go.
    When you find the training you want to take, write to the school and explain your situation. Ask them what the required text books they use for the classes. (Press Read more)
    Get the books and start reading them and working them out. The best way is to read the books aloud to yourself. This way you get the information 3 ways.

    Being stressed a lot and fretting about it stops my time of the month.
    And that’s something I struggle with every now and then.
    But usually, after I calm down and am no longer stressing so much, my cycle comes back when I no longer fretting about whatever I’m stressed about.
    But I will always prepare for a cycle for whenever my body decides it’s no longer stressed 😆

      Look up accessory exercises to the exercises you’re trying to accomplish, for example pushups require a lot of triceps, chest, and core strength. Start by going to the gym and working on triceps pull down, bench press, etc. Go light at first and do a lot of reps, increase weight little by little each week. Hold a plank and do a negative push-up (just lowering yourself down slowly from plank to the floor).
      Look up a sprint workout and replace one of your run workouts with it. Mix intervals into your run. Try to breathe deeper into the diaphragm if you feel like you’re panting a lot.
      Hope any of that is helpful :)

      Actual hell, but you will survive. I promise!! Get your leg tuck down, run A LOT. stretch A LOT. Take vitamins before hand because you are at a high risk of developing shin splints/ hip fractures ( a large percentage of people got recycled for hip related injury) write a SHIT ton of mail and have your friends and family send you photos/ etc.

      I forgot what video it was, but it mentioned that if you're not very good at putting your hair up in a bun, just cut your hair short. So pretty sure you simply just don't do anything with your hair if it's already short.

    • @blazecorn9516
      @blazecorn9516 4 года назад +2

      The regulation is the same. No hair on the neck and ears. Then if the hair goes down in the front it cant not go past your eyebrows. I would say best bet is to pin the front out of the way because it's always getting girls in trouble.

    • @KagomeMorino
      @KagomeMorino 4 года назад +2

      Make sure no stray away hairs and I don’t know if it’s still the same but there was a regulation for females were they couldn’t have shorter than 2 on sides and 3 on top.
