Jenna_S asked:

I’m wanting to set up a society at university where females can get fit doing different activities and having fun too
Most societies are either called ___Soc e.g. RockSoc (Rock Music Society) and BadSoc (Badminton Society) so something along that line could work. Or the other are acronyms which start with LU for Lancaster University.
Alternatively it could just be a name or acronym without these.
Any ideas would be great. Don’t want to make it sound too boring like…Fitness Society because we’re focusing on the ‘fun’ aspect of it.

ZaCH asked:

Well I’m in 7th grade, 13, and 103 lb. I am really thin and skinny. Especially on my hips and torso. My arms and legs are skinny too, so its basically everything. I used to swim with my shirt on when I was little and now I never do because I know I’m really skinny and I don’t like to let other people see me. Sort of ridiculous, I know, but its true. We are required to take gym and change in front of others next year too so I kinda need to gain some weight or muscle by September of this year. I do exercises like every day, but I can’t even tell if its making me skinnier or get more muscles. I don’t eat much so that is a definite problem. Anything I can do diet wise and fitness wise to make me gain muscle and weight? Please don’t tell me to get a gym membership and buy equipment because I’m only 13. I don’t have any equipment to work out so I need some different ideas for workouts if I need them.

Dolkite asked:

I have a B.A. in English, which has only gotten me boring admin jobs, and I am seriously considering going back to school. I identified physical therapy as a possible second career although I have no background in it. I am interested in fitness and nutrition and also enjoy helping people in a non-customer service setting. I guess the best way of saying it is that that I have a great deal of patience.

I am unsure if this is a viable career path for me; a big part of why I am considering this is because it would be steady, well-paid work. Can anyone give me a bit of background regarding training, the job market, and the general daily duties of a PT?
