I\'m 14 and I want to improve my fitness level. I have generally low endurance, and can only do about 20 push ups, maybe 30-35 sit ups, and 8 or 9 chin ups. I want to become more flexible, healthy, lean, everything. Please don\'t give me bad tips....

The only way to get better at something is to practice.

Start a simple routine for when you wake up that combines cardio, resistance training, endurance, and flexibility, and as it becomes easier, make the regimen harder. You\'ll see results and you\'ll feel better about yourself.

Since your younger don\'t try to get into weight lifting. Doing sports have a more positive affect on your body and will give you important things that you need later in life like co-ordination. You can try strength training by just doing excersies using your body weight like push ups,sit ups and chin ups. Try incorporating cardio vascular exercise like jogging, or swimming

I don\'t have anwers for everything, but for the push-ups try starting off with counter-top push-ups - do your push-ups leaning forward agains a counter at about a 45 degree angle. This way you don\'t have to start off lifting ALL your weight, and can build up enough muscle to get to classic horizontal push-ups.

Also, look into yoga, which is a great way to improve your flexibility and elongate your muscles, and it\'s HARDER than it looks! Your muscles will be trembling in no time!

when you get up in the morning, stretch for a good 10-15 minutes, then do 5-10 minutes of jump ropes, or running, you\'ll get lots of endurance, but if you don\'t have 20 minutes to spare then just do breathing exercises throughout the day, practice expanding your lungs, you can get more oxygen to your muscles therefore increasing your overall endurance

hope i helped =]

You need to build strong muscles then. And also you do cardio exercise too cause that will help your endurance level. In the long run, your endurance level will be up. Just keep on going and practice more.
