30. 3 exercises, 3 sets for each muscle group (quads, hams, calves) plus at least one warm up set for each groups; ideally one warm up set for each exercise... so 36.
Mike Mentzer was a proponent of slow (painfully slow) reps and minimal volume with his Heavy Duty H.I.T. program. He worked with Dorian Yates as well as being a somewhat successful (and underrated?)...
Alternatives for the traditional BB Row:
DB Row (either one handed or two handed)
Cable row
T-bar row
Yates row
Inverted row
Hammerstrength Row
Row machines
there are probably more, but I...
Building muscle while burning fat certainly is possible depending upon genetics and current fitness level. The body doesn't say, "well I'm burning fat stores, so there's no way I'm putting any...
I don't know how many calories you're eating, but from the food you just listed (McDonalds, seriously?) I would suggest that you're eating too much. You need to keep track of your caloric and macro...
Because I tend to eat to a specific caloric deficit cardio just means I have to eat more to maintain the deficit I want. It will, however, improve your cardiovascular system and that's why I do it;...
1550 calories would be fine if you're not doing anything all day (I.E. sitting on the couch watching TV). But as soon as you start doing anything, even desk work, your caloric expenditure goes up;...

Nothing's perfect, eat what you want and count your calories making sure that you keep your desired deficit. Eventually you'll start making conscious and subconscious decisions to eat better quality...
If you burn 3000 calories per day you need to eat 200 calories per day in order to keep your 1000 calorie per day deficit. After 7 days (one week) you will have had a total deficit of 7000 calories,...
You'll need 7000 cal/week deficit for 2 lbs/week loss (3500/lb). Not a good idea to starve yourself for two days, your metabolism will crash. It'd be best to just eat at 1000cal/day deficit.
First let me point out that you don't need to do cardio at all to burn fat. It's all about diet. If you eat less calories than maintenance you will burn fat provided you're still lifting...
I like to use a short bar with a narrow grip. I don't really like how high the guy in the video is bringing his elbows. I don't normally bring my elbows up much beyond the plane of my shoulders.
