Q: One of the most effective ways to work your lats is making use of a weight machine at your local gym. Exercises involving weight machines are great for the lats.  A weight machine is a kind of gym equipment where weights are attached to a bar that the user pulls up and down to help build muscle. A weight machine is often the best way to start lifting weights if you haven't before.  Usually, you sit on a moveable seat and pull the bar down while squatting. The seat and level of weight may need to be adjusted for your size and fitness level. Talk to an instructor at the gym if you have any questions about adjusting the machine.  To work your lats, do an exercise called the lat pulldown. Sit down on the weight bench and place your hands slightly wider than shoulder length apart. Slowly, pull the bar towards your chest, keeping your shoulder blades rolled behind you. Then, slowly return to the starting position. Strive for one set of 12 to 15 repetitions.  Start at a low level of weight and resistance on the machine and gradually work your way up each week. A resistance band is an elastic strap with handles on either end used in workouts that can be purchased at most sports or gym stores. You can also buy one online. There are a variety of exercises you can do using a resistance band that work the lats.  Try the bent over row. In this work out, you will stand on the center of the band with your feet spread slightly apart. Bend over slightly, with your knees somewhat bent, and grab both ends of the band. Form a 90 degree angle. Pull the band up towards your hips, squeezing your shoulders as you go, and then return to the original position. Do this for two to three sets of 10 to 12 reps.  You can also try a lying pullover. Anchor the band around a low lying immovable object, such as bedpost. Lie on your back, knees bent, and grab either end of the band with your arms held over your head. Then, pull the band in towards your torso and return to the original position. Do 8 to 10 repetitions.  The lat pulldown focuses more on the upper back. You will have to anchor the band around a high up object, such as a tree or a horizontal bar at your local gym. Kneel facing the anchor and grip either end of the band with your arms extended over your head. Bend your elbows to pull the band towards the floor. Contract your back muscles as you do this. Then slowly return to the starting position. Do two to three sets of 10 to 12 repetitions. You can also work your lats by incorporating chin ups into your workout routine. These can be done with a workout bar at your local gym.  Grab onto a pull up bar with your palms facing towards your torso. Keep your grip close to the width of your shoulders.  Keep your back straight and your lower back curved. Your chest should be sticking out slightly.  Pull yourself upward, breathing out, until your head is level with the pull up bar. Breathing in, lower your body back to the starting position.  If you are new to doing chin ups, it may take practice before you are able to successfully incorporate them into your workout. The number of repetitions depends on your overall fitness level. Start off by seeing how many chin ups you can do successfully before becoming tired and gradually build up from that number. To use dumbbells to work your lats, you will need to set a workout bench at a 30 degree angle. The weight of the dumbbells depends on your fitness level, but you should start at the lowest weight possible if you're new to working out.  Lie over the workout bench and grab one dumbbell in each hand. Keep your back straight and your shoulders back.  Bending your elbows, pull the dumbbells up towards your torso. Then, slowly return to the original position. Strive to do two to three sets of 10 to 12 reps.
A: Use a weight machine. Buy a resistance band. Do chin ups. Use dumbbells.

Article: Start calculating your assets, or what you own. This is the first step is figuring out how much zakat you'll pay. You exclude the assets you use for everyday life. For example, your primary residence, car, clothes and business equipment are not used in your zakat asset calculations. It's based on what's left after you take care of you and your family's living expenses.   Some examples of zakat-eligible assets include stocks, savings, investment properties, cash, business income or precious metals such as gold. Determine how much your zakat-eligible assets are worth for the year. Debt from credit cards, college or other loans subtracts from your personal net worth. These outstanding debts are deducted from your total zakat-eligible assets.  If you obtained a personal loan of any type (car, home, cash), then look at how much you pay per month to your creditors, not the entire outstanding debt. Add up how much you owe each month to your creditors. Multiple this amount by 12 to calculate your annual liability amount. Subtract your liabilities from your zakat-eligible assets. For example, your assets for the year total $6,000 and your liabilities total $2,000. Your zakat net worth or zakat pool of money is $4,000 ($6,000 - $2,000 = $4,000).
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Identify your assets. Identify your liabilities. Determine your zakat net worth.

Q: When you write your roleplaying scenes, read over your character description to make sure you’re staying in character. It’s okay for characters to grow and change over time, but you don’t want them to completely reverse major personality traits! Literate roleplayers don’t use abbreviations or chatspeak, so make sure your posts are written out in complete sentences! Each post should be at least one paragraph long to start, but as you improve your posts should each be at least two or three paragraphs long. A big part of literate roleplaying is using long, detailed descriptions instead of short phrases. Go into as much detail as possible. For example, instead of writing “Frodo walked through the rain,” you could write “Frodo trudged through the torrential downpour, his bare feet squishing deep into the mud with every step.” Don’t just limit yourself to actions--write about how your character feels and reacts to situations. This will give your characters depth and growth over the course of the game. For example, if your character is punched, don’t just write about how they fought back. Write about how the punch made them feel and what it reminded them of from their past. A big part of literate roleplaying is keeping your characters and settings on topic--this isn’t the place to suddenly transport your characters to outer space! Keep your characters and settings in mind the entire time while you roleplay, and try to make each response as realistic as possible in the context of your setting.
A:
Keep a description of your character handy. Write out your posts in complete sentences. Use descriptive words and phrases. Write about your character’s feelings and reactions. Stay on topic.
