Problem: Article: To avoid stress on your elbow and tendons, you should invest in a lightweight racket that is comfortable and has a flexible shaft. Look for a mid-size or oversize racket with flexibility, as the flexion will help to absorb some of the shock of the ball as you hit it and put less stress on your elbow. Your strings should be strung at a tension of less than 55 lbs. Tight strings can increase the stress on your arm as you hit the ball. If possible, you should also opt for thinner strings, rather than thicker strings, on your racket. Thinner strings are more elastic and will absorb more shock caused by hitting the ball. Avoid playing with old, wet balls as they can require more force and effort to hit, leading to higher stress placed on your arm. Go for new, pressurized tennis balls whenever possible.
Summary: Use a lightweight racket with a flexible shaft. Make sure your racket strings are not too tight. Play with dry, light balls.

Problem: Article: Protein is the foundation of hair, and you need a lot of it for your hair to grow long, shiny and healthy. That doesn't mean you have to eat loads of meat (although you can) - it just means you need to focus on having protein be at the center of most of your meals.  If you're a meat eater, enjoy, beef, chicken, fish, pork, and other types of meat. Eggs and some types of cheese are also high in protein. Beans and other legumes, nuts, and leafy vegetables like spinach have protein, too. If you're a vegetarian, you should live on these! This "good" fat contributes to healthy, shiny hair and skin. It's found in a number of delicious foods like avocados, nuts, salmon, flaxseed oil, and more. You can also take fish oil supplements for large bursts of omega-3 if you want an extra boost. If you're dehydrated, it'll show in your hair. Your hair will become dry, dull, and more prone to breakage. That's means drinking water is an easy and absolutely essential part of growing longer hair. You'll see a difference in no time!  Carry around a water bottle and plan to drink at least 2–3 liters (0.5–0.8 US gal) of water a day. If you have trouble drinking a lot of plain water, drink herbal tea or flavored water, too. Avoid caffeine and alcohol, and don't drink too much soda. Choose water instead. Certain supplements are said to help promote hair growth and lead to longer hair over time. This isn't exactly a quick fix, but if you start taking supplements you might see improved hair growth over the course of a few weeks or months. Give some of these supplements a try to see if they work for you:  Biotin is a popular hair growth supplement. It's often taken by pregnant women to make sure their growing babies have enough nutrients, but there's no reason you can't take it if you aren't pregnant. Atlantic cedar oil is a supplement that can be applied directly to the scalp to promote hair growth. Argan oil can be used the same way. Beta-sitosterol is a plant and seed-based substance that may lead to faster hair growth.
Summary: Eat more protein. Eat omega-3 fatty acids. Drink plenty of water. Take hair growth supplements.

Problem: Article: Before embarking on any of the following, ensure you have determined the pump to be at issue, by properly troubleshooting and checking the other components in your well system first, based on the presenting symptoms. No water does not always equal no pump.  When in doubt, always consult a professional. Be sure to follow any and all applicable laws and codes. Determine what type of pump you need. Submersible pumps are used in deeper wells and will be beneath the ground in a well casing, while a jet pump is used in shallow wells that are less than 25 feet (7.63 m) deep and will be above ground. Find out the power ratings, the gallons (l) per minute pumped and the well size before you install a new pump. Locate well pumps at a water supply retail store, hardware store or online. When replacing well pumps, be sure to purchase the correct type of pump. A circuit breaker controls the flow of electricity to your house, and the well should be on a separate switch. Pay attention to the voltage assigned to the breaker (110/120,240v) as you will need this information to troubleshoot your pump issues, and correctly set up your new pump. When you install a new pump, you need to drain the water from the pumping system.
Summary: Make sure you know that the pump is actually your problem. Obtain a new pump. Turn off the power to your pump at the main circuit breaker. Turn on a hose or faucet to release all the pressure from holding tanks or pressure tanks by letting the water drain out.

Problem: Article: Belly fat can make your hips look smaller by comparison. Losing weight overall can cut down on belly fat, and make your hips look bigger. To lose weight, the first step is a healthy diet.  Your diet should be primarily plant-based. Fruits, vegetables, and whole grains should make up the bulk of your diet. Go for brown rice over white rice, and whole wheat breads over white varieties. Stick to lean forms of protein, like fish and poultry, and low fat dairy products. For example, go for salmon for dinner instead of steak. Sugar can contribute to weight gain overall, so look into cutting back on sugar in your diet. Sugary beverages can be a big culprit, as many people fail to think about liquid calories in their diet.  Avoid sugary beverages like soda, specialty latte drinks, and alcoholic beverages including cocktails, wine, beer, and wine coolers. Drink plenty of water instead and opt for unsweetened beverages like unsweetened iced tea and club soda. You can even flavor water and other zero calorie beverages with lemon or lime juice. Read labels before making a purchase. Sugar is found in surprising places, like breads, yogurts, and pasta sauces. You should also look for words like fructose, dextrose, and maltose in the ingredients list. These are all names of added sugar. For women, strive to limit added sugar to 24 grams a day, which is about 6 teaspoons. For men, limit added sugar to 36 grams, which is about 9 teaspoons. Many times, you are eating more calories than you realize. Portion sizes, especially when eating out, can be quite large. Be conscientious of portion size.  Try to avoid going out to eat. When you do, split an entree with a friend to halve the calories. If a restaurant has a special menu of low calorie foods, try ordering off of that.  Be aware of how much food you should eat at home. One serving of carbohydrates is about the size of a hockey puck. An ounce of dairy is about the size of six dice. A serving of protein should be no bigger than a deck of cards.  It can also help to eat slowly. Your body will feel more satisfied, and you will realize you're full quicker. It can be helpful to keep a record of your eating habits, any weight loss you have, and any inches you lose off of your waist. This can help you stay on track and see what days of the week you're likely to slip up. It can also keep you motivated to have a running log of your progress to look at each day. You should also be sure to include other factors that can affect weight loss. For example, note things like your stress level, your sleep schedule, and your daily exercise.
Summary:
Adopt a healthy diet. Reduce your sugar intake. Eat smaller portions. Record your eating habits and progress.
