Childhood Obesity Causes & Consequences. On this Page. Childhood obesity is a complex health issue. It occurs when a child is well above the normal or healthy weight for his or her age and height.

You're right, here's a quick calculation: Say you bench press a 100kg mass and it travels 1m (apparently you have really long arms). Lifting that weight 1m expends (100kg)(1m)(~10m/sÂ²) = 1000J. Converting to calories and then kilocalories (food calories), this gives you something one the order of 1kcal. Bench pressing 100kg burns about 1kcal.
The bench press works upper body muscles including the pectorals, triceps and biceps. How to: As with the dumbbell press you do a bench press with your feet flat on the floor and your back on the bench. With your arms shoulder length apart, use an overhand grip to take firm hold of the bar.
