When choosing a jumper, body type should be considered. Jumpers can be flattering on most frames, so make sure you choose a cut that brings out your best side.  With a smaller bust, you may want to divert your eyes elsewhere. You may to get a neckline that has beads or jewels embroidered onto it. You can also try a looser cut to add volume. If you have a bigger bust, a v-line can be flattering. You should also think about your general frame. A free form, loose jumper works great if you have a curvy figure. If your figure is more flat, go for a layer jumper or a jumper with a tie or belt at the waist. This can add volume. Jumpers tend to work best on taller women. If you're taller, most jumpers will work. A wide legged jumper with a halter top can be particularly flattering on a taller figure. Patterns may also be overwhelming if you have a taller frame, so solid colors work best. If you're shorter, try experimenting with a variety of fun patterns. You can also go for a tapered leg, as a wider leg can swallow up a shorter frame. As jumpers usually draw attention to your midsection, you'll want to think about torso length. Whether your torso is long or short makes a difference in your jumper options.  If you have a short torso, a wide leg can draw the eyes downward. You should also think about think about a drop waist, which is where the seam of the jumper is positioned near the hips rather than the waist. For a longer torso, patterns or prints can help hide your waist. You may want to look at a jumper that comes with a drawstring at the waist. A drawstring can be tied loosely, causing the jumper to sag. This can lessen the appearance of your waist. Jumpers do have a tendency to be well-suited for people who are taller. Long garments can actually make the body look shorter and squatter. If you're short, you can combat this with proper footwear. Consider shoes with high heels or wedges. This can lift you up slightly, making you look tall despite the jumper.

Treadmills are available at most gyms, and they're a convenient way to get some cardio exercise in and burn calories. Many treadmills let you adjust the speed and incline that you want to work out with, so it's a good choice regardless of your fitness level.  You can burn around 125 calories per 1 mile (1.6 km) walking briskly on a treadmill if you weigh 150 pounds (68 kg).  Using a treadmill can be hard on the knees, so you may want to use a different cardio machine if you suffer from knee pain or have a knee injury. Working out on an elliptical is also a good calorie-burning cardio exercise, and like a treadmill, you can usually adjust your intensity level. Ellipticals are popular exercise machines, so you shouldn't have a hard time finding one at your gym. You can burn 170-320 calories in 30 minutes on an elliptical, depending on your weight and the level of intensity you're working out at. For example, if you weigh 200 pounds (91 kg), you could burn 286 calories by working out on an elliptical at a high intensity for 30 minutes. Pedaling on a stationary bike at moderate intensity for 30 minutes can help you burn 200-700 calories, depending on your weight. It's also a great choice if you have knee problems since most of your body weight is being supported by the machine.  For example, if you weigh 150 pounds (68 kg), you could burn 250 calories by exercising on a stationary bike with moderate intensity for 30 minutes. If you're new to exercising, you can start out pedaling on a light intensity setting and then gradually increase your intensity level as you improve. Rowing is a great, full-body cardio exercise that won't place a lot of stress on your joints. On a rowing machine, you can burn calories while working out your arms, legs, and core. Start out on a low-intensity setting and progress slowly so you don't hurt your back. Depending on your weight, you can burn around 400-700 calories by spending 1 hour on a rowing machine. For example, if you weigh 240 pounds (110 kg), you could burn 650 calories by working out on a rowing machine with moderate intensity for 1 hour.

There is a lot to know about betta fish, even beyond the basics just outlined. In general, large box stores aren't in the business of providing detailed information, unless you happen to strike a betta enthusiast salesperson. As well as having the basic understanding of betta outlined above, you might consider researching more details about betta fish online at specialist sites. These sites will remain useful for you after purchase too, as you'll be able to ask questions, check up health and nutrition notes and find like-minded betta fans to share stories with. Please be aware of what you are getting into before you buy a betta fish. Know that these fish can live up to five years under the proper care, so do your research before buying. The minimum size tank for a betta fish is 2.5 gallons with a heater and filter, although if you have a bigger tank, you don't have to do as many water changes. Despite the recent fad of keeping bettas in small vases or bowls please do not keep a betta fish in a tank or bowl that holds less than 2 gallons; it is terrible for their health and is very small! Remember that even though these fish may look like flowery decorations, they are live animals that need room to swim around and space on the surface of the water to breathe and eat.  Your betta fish will not be happy or live as long if kept in these small places. The best room for a betta tank is one that is calm, quiet, and off-limits to pets that are a risk to bettas, such as dogs or cats.  The tank should be placed on a sturdy, level surface to prevent the tank from spilling over, and there should be outlets nearby to plug the heaters and filters into.  The tank should be away from things like windows, vents, doors, or humidifiers, as the temperature fluctuations and UV exposure can pose a danger to the health of your betta, and encourage harmful algae growth in your tank.
