gosh you have so many questions! i'll share with you what i've come across on the web - probably doesn't do much harm to do go to the gym everyday but you want to mix cardio with weights cos it's better for your overall health, and also you want to wait at least 48h before working out the...

haha i know I'm terrible but I have little tolerance for people who are overweight- to a certain extent people need to be responsible for their health and make opportunities to lose weight rather than waiting for others to hand it to them on a silver platter (pardon the pun). but on the other...
