Adding padding to a swimsuit top ?

emily

I just bought a new swimsuit , but I need more in the bust area . the top has a little bit of push-up but I need more , is there anyway I can add padding into the top ? thank you !

Answer
Some swimsuits come with light padding built in that is removable. If that is the case, you can buy more inserts to also put in that area since there is already a sewn in "pocket". If your swimsuit doesn't have a pocket, you can try sew-in pads. Braza is a good brand that I know of. All you have to do is stitch them into your swim top. Handsewing is pretty easy to do with these. Try searching Amazon for "sew in swimsuit pads" or somewhere else. You might be able to buy them at lingerie stores too.

I usually try to get a swimsuit with the pockets with removable padding and I put in bigger pads to get a little more lift. Good luck! :)

how do i go about becoming a fitness/athletic model?

Roey

starting from the very beginning, no experience, or connections, what is/are the first step/steps to take.

Answer
Most fitness models are scouted at sporting events they are competing in. A friend who works in Self and Shape magazine and has done ads for companies like Puma, Roxy, etc was scouted at a beach volleyball tournament she was competing in. Others are scouted at various fitness competitions.

Wilhelmina Models takes fitness models. They even have an annual model search in conjuction with Fitness magazine. If you are in LA, Bobby Ball agency specializes in fitness models.

How can I become a Teen Fitness Model?

Kaylee

I am a 16 year old girl. I've got awesome abs from competitive cheerleading and from working out. I've got well defined biceps, triceps, and calfs. I am only 5'3, wear a size small, 3 to be exact. What can I do to become a fitness model at my age?

Answer
Under 18s need parents permission to model & adult chaperones to all shoots, interviews & casting calls. Parents must ensure work is within government guidelines re hours, pay etc. If applicable a youth work permit will be needed. The law requires parents make model agency applications on behalf of under 18s. Apply at open calls, or by email to agency offices, or by online application forms found on the agencies` websites. Be sure the agency is age appropriate - some are over 18s only.

To find agencies search online for 'Model Agencies ***** (ie the area you want to search). Do authenticity checks as below. Ensure the agency has the category of modelling you want to do. Under 18s can do Fitness,Runway,Catalogue,Fashion,Print, Magazine,Advertising,Promotional, Plus Size, Character, Commercial, Editorial, Parts Modelling, Hair & Photographic. Swimwear, Lingerie & Underwear must be catalogue style & not provocative (over 18s only).

Modelling isn`t only about fashion, it`s also about selling a product, commodity or idea. Only Runway modelling has measurement criteria - agencies are aware teens may still be growing. Adult females are expected to be within an inch of 34"-24"-34" & 5'8-5'11 tall. Adult males- waist 30"â35" chest 36"â40" height 5'11-6'2. Agencies do not weigh models - but they expect healthy BMIs. Other modelling genres do not have measurement criteria - proved by 1000s of successful models worldwide under 5'8 (females) and 5'11 (males).

Send agency applications with 4 photos. 2 facing the camera -1 portrait (top of the head down to the shoulders) & 1 full body (head to feet). 2 side profile images, portrait & full body. Stand up straight. Wear a fitted plain T shirt & fitted jeans. Girls, no make-up & hair off the face. This also what you should wear for open calls or interviews.

Application photos show what you look like, a portfolio shows if you have the ability to model. Portfolios include images in the model`s chosen genres. Professional un-edited or clear amateur shots are acceptable. Use images from several photographers. You will need permission from the photographer to include their images in your portfolio as they own the copyright. For further portfolio information: http://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/indâ¦

Use international modelling sites (Model Mayhem /Purestorm/ OneModelPlace) to locate photographers in your area. Not all photographers on these sites are genuine. 99% are, always check references. Some photographers work TFP/TFCD i.e model & photographer give time to a shoot in return for prints or images on CD to use in their portfolios. Most photographers will charge for their work- ensure the price they quote is all inclusive.

Do not use Portfolio Studios as often the price does not include the images, only studio time & the photographer. Portfolio Studios often ignore the 7 day cooling off period & use hard sell to entice their customers to pay high prices for poor quality images. The 'scouts' in malls are selling agents for these studios and not from genuine agencies.

3 out of 4 agencies are scam. The quickest, but not exclusive, way to check is google the agency name followed by the word 'scam' or 'review' & read the results. Be aware that where there are negative reviews, scam agencies will write bogus positive reviews. For further information on how to avoid the scams : http://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/indâ¦

Genuine agencies receive 1000s of applications direct to their offices. They have no need to scout in malls or advertise on the internet INCLUDING Facebook, FaceParty, Gumtree (or any classified ads sites), Google Ads, YahooAds. To clarify, when making internet searchs related to modelling ALL the modelling adverts on the right of the screen & colour shaded areas at the top of the results list are ALL scams. If the site you are reading is genuine, do not presume all sites advertised on the same page are genuine. More often they are scams.

Avoid modelling schools, their remit is to make money not make models. They accept anyone willing to pay the high fees but can give no guarantee of your acceptance by an agency. You are making them money - they won`t pass you on to make money for someone else. Apply direct to the agencies. If signed you will receive free training & you are not wasting your time or money.

Some agencies cover several categories, some a select few, some are exclusive to one style. Agents look for a) the model`s ability to make themselves & the product they are advertising (whether a product or an idea) saleable via the camera or the catwalk and b) models they can market to their clients. Each agency has it`s own client base, and will sign according to their clients` requirements.

It`s not all down to looks or measurements, it is ability to do the job that will get you signed. There are no guarantees. Modelling has a 98% rejection rate & those that do get signed to an agency are not guaranteed work

What's the fastest swimsuit for women based on these rules.....?

alex

The swimsuit for females shall not extend beyond the shoulders nor below the top of the kneecap, nor cover the neck.
The swimsuit the swimsuit shall be, constructed of a woven/knit textile material; permeable (100 percent to air and water); made so as not to aid in buoyancy and shall not be altered to aid in
buoyancy; made with no zippers or other fastening system.

Thank you so much!

Answer
The permeability issue is the problem. That doesn't include polyester, nylon, neoprene, rubber, or anything except for cotton, silk, wool, stuff like that. I think they need to be a bit more definitive than they have been, unless they just mean the weave must be permeable. But, even then, I guess even the Speedo Endurance line would be illegal. At any rate, here is a picture of what's allowed at the maximum, coverage wise. I'm guessing from the price tag, it must be legal, since it's now more than the lzr suit is.

Help me to get rid of all these bikinis and swimsuits Please?

Dianne B

I am 33 and have a huge collection of bikinis and swimsuits approx 150 garments in total that has been built up by me letting my husband buy swimwear for me during the ten years we have been together. I now no longer want these and have twice tried to throw them out and my husband has rescued them out the dustbin any ideas on how to get rid of it permanantly would help me out. I have enquired and none of my local charities take swimwear for hygene reasons.

I have never actually taken the swimwear out the house as there is an awful lot of it.

I really just want to and will need to do it in one go Ideas wanted please

Answer
I have an ex boyfriend who has the same fetish about buying swimsuits. When his wife (shorter and plumper than I) left him, he felt justified in taking back all the swimsuits he bought or had made for her. He brought them round to my house and I had a garage sale of my own and included these swimsuits. Women wouldn't buy them for hygene reasons. It was a wet day and only Asian and Muslim women came to the garage sale, so perhaps they are more fussy than other types of women about bathers (but not rain!), I don't know. Also, they were outdated (hardly worn, tho). If bathers are plain material, (especially black and navy) they don't look dated, but when they are floral, paisley or spots and triangles etc, they can go out of fashion very quickly. If they are not lined, they can go saggy cos the sun melts the rubber in them. Some pairs I gave to friends but I still have 4 bulging suitcases of them. He also bought about 10 pairs for me and when we split up the first time, he took them back and gave them to his next girlfriend who wore them a lot. When she left him, he got back with me and then gave me back the swimsuits, all faded and stretched. He took them from her when they split up. I went mad at him and said he was most uncool even thinking I would wear them like that, something that was once mine, all used up by some other woman. I rang her and said DIDN'T YOU MIND WEARING BATHERS THAT HE BOUGHT ME? And she said NO. He and I were on holiday when we had an argument and he took out of my suitcase, stuff he bought me and hid it on top of the wardrobe of the motel, so if I noticed it was missing, I wouldn't be able to retrieve it from his suitcase. When it came time to check out, he forgot he had hidden the stuff and when we got back to the city, he had to ring all the motels cos we had stayed in so many and he forgot which one we were in when he hid the stuff and I had so much that I didn't notice anything missing. None of the motels knew what he was talking about, so perhaps the next lot of guests or the maids now have them.

I have seen bathing suits in charity shops but I admit I haven't noticed any lately. You just have to ring around to see which charity will take them. What about a theatrical group? They could use the fabric or just the tops. You could fill them with foam bits and make cushions out of them. You could have a garage sale and advertise that it would be 150 pairs of bathers. This ex of mine also has a shoe fetish. I haven't seen him for a while, and I wonder if we are talking about the same man? I hear he went back to the woman who wore my bathers.

I just noticed that Ronald H. says your husband uses them as his fantasy. I used to be in the middle of cooking dinner and he (the ex) would come into the kitchen with a pair of bathers in his hands from my dressing room and say to me WEMBS, COULD YOU PUT THESE ON? I would beat him mercilessly with a wooden spoon. He drove me mad.

How many days should i workout?

Rob

im 16 years old i weigh 140, and im 5'4. im trying to bulk up.

sunday- workout
Monday- workout
Tuesday- rest
wedsneday- workout
thursday-workout
friday- rest
saturday-rest

Is this a good workout schedule for me?

Answer
Hi Rob,

To bulk up and gain a lot of muscle mass, you must do a lot of resistance training progressively but also consume a lot of calories at the same time. The extra calories that you consume are to supply the energy for your workouts as well as to replace and build lean tissue. To gain one pound of lean tissue, you must consume 2,500 extra calories. Therefore, to gain one or two pounds of lean tissue a week, you will need to consume about 350 or 700 extra calories daily, respectively. You must also do a lot of resistance training so that the extra calories consumed are used for gaining muscle mass and supplying needed energy, and not to be stored as fat. Since muscle tissue is more protein than fat or glycogen, it is suggested that you consume about 2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight daily (if the protein is plant-based, more is required). Any extra calories that still needs to be made up after considering the protein requirements can be done with higher calorie foods.

If you are not used to resistance training, you must start slow and gradually build up. It is not necessary to consume the recommended amount of proteins and calories stated above when you first start out, as you will not be lifting much and all the extra calories will not be used up to either supply fuel for the workouts or replace and build lean tissue, causing your body to store much of the extra calories as fat. Also, make sure your body can adapt to the progression rate and gradually be accustomed to heavier loads. Then, increase your calorie and protein uptake as you increase your resistance training duration, frequency, and intensity. But again, you must take care to not overtrain, as this will lean to adverse training effects, including decrease of lean muscle mass.

Workout:

Warm up: Be sure to always warm up before engaging in physical activities. If you don't have time to warm-up, you don't have time to exercise. (Not enough room here to provide more detailed information).

Reps: Usually, high-intensity low-volume workouts are better for bulking up. This means that the sets should be near maximal (you should only be able to do about 4-8 reps per set) and consequently, you will not be able to do as many reps or sets compared to a low-intensity workout.

Sets: The number of sets you'll be able to do is dependent on your fitness condition. Always listen to your body to prevent overtraining. I will not prescribe a certain number of sets per day as your body will be better at doing this during the workout itself, but it may be helpful to set a goal in your mind before working out. However, if for example, you have a goal of doing 15 sets that day, but feel like your body is not responding normally during the 7th set, then it only seems logical to discontinue the workout and get the needed rest your body is calling for. In general, you should try to go for about 15-20 sets (this may be per day or on workout days, depending on the routine that you choose) when your body has gotten accustomed to such work.

Routine: Because there are various types of workout routines out there all claiming to be the best and most efficient and also because individuals will respond differently to different exercises and routines based on genetics and other factors, I will not be able to say which one is the best. I will mention, however, two of the top (but very different) routines you might want to be consider.
1) Resistance train six to seven days a week by working different muscle groups each day (i.e. arms on Monday, chest on Tuesday, back on Wednesday, legs on Thursday, etc.) You may want to start out with some sort of combination so that you do not overtrain your muscles while they are still adapting to more amount of work.
2) Do only whole-body exercises (bench press, squat, power clean, deadlift, etc.) every other day with a few sets of abdominal workouts once or twice a week. This means that you shouldn't bother yourself with exercises that just work a single group of muscles (i.e. bicep curls, triceps extension, etc.)
Although it is not clear which routine is more effective (may be dependent upon the individual), as long as you're doing the exercises properly and not overtraining, then there will definitely be benefits. Therefore, it may not hurt for you to switch from one routine to another to see if you can tell which ones work for you best. Who knows, you might actually get the best workout this way as you will be implementing the concept of muscle confusion by switching to different routines after a period of time.

Rest:

Make sure you get plenty of rest. 8-10 hours of sleep everyday is suggested.

I hope this helps!

How does a submarine operate?

Vanilla Ne

EMERGENCY Question!

Answer
A submarine is equipped with ballast tanks. To make the submarine "dive", the ballast tanks are flooded with water causing the submarine to sink. For the submarine to return to the surface, air pressure is used to blow the water out of the ballast tanks, causing the sub to rise to the surface.
Its mechanically much more complicated than this but that's the basics.

how did submarines affect WWI?

Blah

and how were they used (as defence? or offense? or both?)? did it have a big impact on wwi?
which had a bigger impact on wwi? aircrafts or submarines?

Answer
Submarines, or more properly "U-boats" had the greater effect, by far. They were still successfully sinking Allied ships when the surface navy sailors and soldiers in the trenches mutinied and brought down the Kaiser and his government.

Look at the map of the Atlantic. All the shipping lanes from North America to Britain and France cluster together, and can be swept with relative ease by a line of subs sailing west. Furthermore, the British Isles can only be approached from about six different directions. All you have to do is station a dozen or so U-boats around these approaches and pick off ships with ease as they come to you, instead of having to hunt them down on the high seas.

Military aviation at the time, while daring and romantic, was but a small part of the land war, and had little strategic effect, other than on morale and propaganda. It was left to the next war for that to take center stage.

Submarines are offensive stealth weapons. In general, they're just about useless on the surface, except against a smaller and less well armed opponent. Airplanes can be either offensive or defensive, but in WWI they were still too primitive to be serious threats against any major targets.

Where can I find one piece swimsuits for teenage girls?

V-ballCHAM

I've been looking for one piece swimsuits all summer, but I can't seem to find solid ones..if you know of anywhere that has really cute and appropriate ones, please comment! Thanks

Answer
It is hard to find good ONE PIECE suits for teens who don't wish (or who's parents don't wish for them) to show more than necessary to go enjoy themselves at the pool. Your best bet, is actual "sports" places (A&N, for example, but whatever you have in your area). The reason is, swimsuits in these places are designed for "swimming", not showing off cleavage, etc. The best swimsuits for swimming, are one pieces, that don't have tops to ride up while in the middle of swimming. There are really cute swimsuits in these shops (people who swim for sports don't want to look like grandma, either), almost, if not all of them, are one pieces, and I've no doubt you could find something to be happy with here. You might pay $40-80 for a swimsuit, vs the $20 at Walmart, but well worth it if it serves your purpose, and they're probably cheaper now as the season comes to a close (they are also made really well, and should hold up for her another year if it still fits next year).

Swimsuits?

Q. I am wondering what the difference between "speedos" and swimsuits are. I am 14 and not sure which ones I should buy. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Tell me why or why not.

Answer
Speedos is a type of swimsuit that look like that bottoms of a girls bikini. Not really recommended unless you wear them for the swim team or whatever. I'm not quite sure what you mean by swimsuit because that is very vague, but most guys wear the kind that are shorts that reach their knees ("swim trunks"). Have fun!
