Great advice above.

Try to find the time to eat more than three meals per day. A little food preparation the night before will help you. If you can only workout at night, then that's what you...

I agree with Ned Flanders (love it!).

Take care of those muscles with proper rest and nutrition and you will be fine.

Im just speaking from experience here...YES!

I used to get 8-10 hours of sleep per night and felt great. Then my schedule changed and I was getting about 6 hours (so not enough rest for me). All...

I would skip the exercises that hurt/strain your neck. You could always do other exercises, other body parts, or dare I say cardio ;)

Go with how you feel. Don't injure yourself though.

Good...

Good advice young-squatter.

Alternate between the two and alternate your exercises for the chest. Incline, decline and flat bench presses all work the chest muscle but each incline level works...

I agree with the stabalizer muscles not being quite there...yet. Also, are you warmed up properly? A good 5-10 minutes where you can actually tell there has been an increase in body temp. may help...

I prefer doing smaller intervals though. ...

Depending on how much you are lifting (if you are lifting very heavy weight then it would be best to stay away), I use the ball for almost every exercise. I am not concerned about getting huge...

A few things to consider, are you trying to lift too much weight for this exercise? You mentioned that your knee wants to move out towards the side, are your toes perfectly straight ahead?

This...

As the others have mentioned, watch the calories. One of your goals would be to cut overall body fat. That's done through a variety of ways. I prefer to standard and not very jazzy- eat well, do...

I'm thinking it's the posterior deltoid too. The exercises aqua-beowulf mentioned are good ones to hit that muscle.
