Placing the victim of electrical shock in the recovery position will ensure that her airway remains clear. Follow these steps to properly put the victim in the recovery position:  Place the arm nearest to you at a right angle with her body. Place the other hand under the side of their head. The back of the hand should touch the cheek. Bend the farthest knee at a right angle. Roll the victim on the side. The top arm will support the head. Lift the chin of the victim and check the airway. Stay with the victim and monitor their breathing. Once in recovery position, don’t move the victim, as this can cause further injury. The victim will quickly cool down. You should try to wrap her in a thermal blanket to keep the body temperature regulated. Wait for the emergency services with the victim.  Don’t cover the body if there are large wounds or untreated burns. Be gentle when you place the blanket over them. When the emergency services arrive, give them what details you have. Explain very quickly the source of the danger.  Notify them of any wounds you've noticed and the time of the accident.  Don't try to interfere once they take over. Try talking with the victim to learn more about her state.  You will be able to better help by learning as much as you can.  Pay careful attention to any responses and be ready to relay them to emergency services when they arrive.  Identify yourself and ask the victim what happened.  Ask whether the victim has trouble breathing and if she is experiencing any pain. Ask where sources of pain are located.  This may identify any wounds or burns. If the victim is unconscious, check the airway and listen for breathing. Check the victim’s body, starting with the head and moving down to the neck, chest, arms, stomach and legs.  Look for any burns or other injuries that are immediately noticeable.  Report injuries to emergency responders when they arrive. Don't manipulate or move any painful or wounded areas and don't touch any burns.  Moving the victim can cause further injury. If the victim is bleeding, try to stop or slow blood loss. Use a clean cloth to apply direct pressure. Continue pressing until the bleeding stops.  Do not remove the cloth if soaked with blood, add more layers to it. Elevate the bleeding limb higher than the heart. Do not move the limb if you suspect a fracture. Once bleeding stops, wrap the cloth in a bandage to secure it in place. Wait for emergency services to arrive and inform them of the injury and what you have done to treat it. If you notice any change in the victim’s condition or if you spot any new wounds, call emergency services again for further instructions.  Keeping emergency services up to date will help them respond better.  If the condition worsens, the operator might prioritize your situation. If the victim stops breathing, the operator might tell you how to perform CPR. Don’t panic, follow any instructions you are given.

Before you start your muscle-building workout season, consult a doctor. Muscle-building exercises are highly demanding to your body, and people with some chronic illnesses (such as cardiac conditions, high blood pressure, or stroke) may not be candidates for this type of workout. If you have high blood pressure (hypertension) you should not do heavy weightlifting without consulting your doctor. If your blood pressure is above 180/110 mm Hg, do not lift weights until you have normalized your blood pressure with medications. Strength training engages the muscles in your body and makes them work against a resistance. When you make your muscles work against a resistance, you are forcing your muscle fibers to respond to the added stress which leads to enhanced muscle size and definition. In order to build muscle, you need to add strength (also called resistance) training to your weekly routine.  Typical strength training programs use free weights (dumbbells, barbells), exercise machines, elastic tubing, or even just the body weight (pushups, pull-ups, crunches). Plan a balanced, total body  strength training program to build the muscles in your body (see third section). Muscle building is not fat burning. The best way to add muscle mass is weight training, while the way to get rid of muscles is extended cardio (you've never seen a Marathon runner with big muscles, have you?).  However, you should not forget cardio exercises entirely as these strengthen your cardiorespiratory system and have numerous other health benefits, including improving bone strength, reducing blood pressure, reducing risk of chronic illnesses (diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular conditions), and improved mood. Also keep in mind that reducing overall body fat with cardio can cause muscles to "pop," and your body can look leaner and stronger. The key when planning cardio routine during muscle-building season is to do shorter sprints instead of long, aerobic workouts. Focus on 20 minute high-intensity exercises with 30 to 60 second high-intensity sprints followed by 1 minute rests. Do your cardio separately from your weight training workout. Never do your cardio after the weight training workout but reserve it to a separate day. Limit the amount of cardio workouts to 20 minute workouts 3 to 5 times a week. Weight training actually causes the muscles to go to a catabolic state (breakdown of muscle proteins). In response, your body has to repair the muscle tissue and during this repair you are actually "building" the muscle mass. Thus, your hard muscle-building workouts need to be balanced with adequate rest.  Limit your strength-training workouts to 3 to 4 days a week and do not work the same muscle groups on consecutive days. Ensure you get a good night's sleep every night; it is recommended that adults get at least 7 to 9 hours a sleep each night. Lifting weights is not only straining to your muscles but your joints and bones as well. If you do not perform each exercise correctly, you may risk an injury. Always consult a trainer and take time to learn to do each exercise correctly before adding heavy weights.
