[ Symptoms ] does using an elliptical machine at the gym burn more calories than running on the street or bike riding [ Disease ] running will burn more calories than the elliptical although it is pretty close about 100 calories per hour difference some of the difference is due to the pounding of running and the fact that you propel your body through the air so that both feet are off the ground simultaneously this kind of movement takes lots of energy both the elliptical and running burn substantially more calories than the bike at the same level of perceived exertion about 200 240 calories per hour more in a classic study comparing energy expenditure of exercise machines the order of calories burned from highest to lowest is posted below the elliptical was not studied in this research but it would fit between rowing and cross country skiing it should be noted that rowing the elliptical and cross country skiing are all very close in calorie expenditure with probably not more than 100 125 calories per hour difference among them treadmill walkingrunning stair stepping rowing cross country skiing biking stationary now this is not to say that exercises that burn the fewest calories are all bad to the contrary you can get a great workout and burn lots of calories doing any of them you would be hard pressed to say that lance armstrong is not fit he is one of the fittest human beings alive and he did it by biking the point is that if you work hard enough on any of the exercise machines and you work up a sweat and you get your heart rate into your training zone then your heart lungs and muscles are not going to know the difference bottom line is that you will get fit and healthy using any of the machines if you use them consistently and with sufficient intensity one final note there is error in estimating energy expenditure on most if not all exercise machines in some cases it can be as high as 25 percent the machine overestimates how many calories you burn there are simply too many variables for the machine to give you an accurate number and so you need to keep that in mind during weight loss efforts if you are calculating how many calories to eat based on your energy expenditure the answer depends on many different things since your weight the type of exercise how intense you are doing each exercise and how long you do each exercise will all influence how many calories you burn simply put however i would say that you have the potential to burn the most calories by running followed by biking and lastly by using the elliptical one way to measure how many calories you burn during exercise is to look at metabolic equivalents mets mets are a way to measure and gauge the amount of energy you burn during physical activity with 1 met being equal to the energy you burn simply being at rest for instance running at a 10 minute mile pace is roughly the equivalent |
[ Symptoms ] 3 yr old son said he ate quarter 5 days ago i have been checking his poop and still nothing now what my son came to me and said he ate the money i could not find the quarter anywhere we did not see him eat it and he was not chocking i did some research and we decided to wait to see if it passed on its own it has now been 5 days and still nothing i hate to expose my son to unnecessary x rays he is acting completely normal pooping eating playing do i need t to bring him in or should we just roll with it its hard because we do not know if he actually ate it [ Disease ] a quarter is quite big but i have seem them harmlessly pass assuming that he did indeed swallow a quarter short of an x ray a safe and inexpensive way to find out if your three year old has a metallic coin is with a metal detector you can rent one or find out if you have a friend who may own one if a metal detector can not get a signal he probably did not swallow it if he suddenly becomes constipated or vomits you may have to expose him to a very low level abdominal x ray one view only and it would not be harmful |

[ Symptoms ] best treatment for infant contapation [ Disease ] it starts like a cold with congestion and upper respiratory symptoms after a week or so a cough develops the cough worsens over several days and the coughing fits may be so severe that you can not stop or catch your breath a coughing fit may be followed by a “whoop” as the person gasps to catch their breath it is these coughing fits called paroxysms which cause doctors to be worried about pertussis and try to confirm the diagnosis in people who have been vaccinated or who have had pertussis before the symptoms may be nonspecific pertussis is high on the list if that whoop is present but if it is absent pertussis may go unrecognized it is important to know that infants with pertussis do not always cough in young babies the first sign of pertussis may be difficulty breathing or pauses in breathing that last more than 20 seconds called “apnea ” apnea is serious and requires immediate medical attention for our infant 4mo daughter it started like a pretty normal cough 5 days later the cough had only gotten worse it went from one or two of the infant double cough pairs up to runs of 6 or 8 double cough pairs lasting more like ten seconds we took her to a walk in clinic for a persussis swab that day but she stopped breathing that night and turned blue we called the ambulance and it was a close call but still it is quite crazy how quickly it escalated if you do not hear the telltale whoop it can still be pertussis the whoop did not show up for us until after we had the apnea episodes and were already checked into the hospital the 50 or whatever for a walk in clinic could save your childs life if you end up in the hospital for a week like we did it will cost a lot more than that anyway if an infant is 6mo or older i would not be quick to run fearfully to the clinic but for young ones it is well worth the cautionary checkup if your child has had a cough for more than a few days |
