i appreciate all the advice, the book i got "the abs diet book", has a training circuit that is based around doing ab workouts 2-3 times a week, and weights 3 times a week. So I'm going to go with...

I have a workout book that lists exercises with weights, I guess I could take that in with me. Do you think I'm doing too much cardio?

i tried the military body fat calculator. it was actually completely accurate because I had the whole caliper test done today and it was spot on. google it.

i think confidence is the key. I'll feel a lot more self confident. It will help my self esteem. It isnt necessarily about the girls, its just about putting my mind to something and doing it. Having...

I'm new here but i see this term thrown around a lot. I understand it means High Intensity training or something but how do you quantify that. I'm assuming its when you do your cardio you, 'go hard'....

well the issue is that I'm of Indian descent.. so a lot of the foods my parents make for dinner wont show up there. But i tend to only eat that for dinner, its all western food for breakfast and...

how exactly do you figure out lean body mass? i weigh 124lbs, and have around 19% body fat, so do I have 100 lbs of lean body mass? so then I'd have to eat 100grams of protein or at least 100g...
