The only lift where spotting might be useful is the bench press. Just swap that with barbells and you'll be fine.

Just do what the doctor says and take a rest. It's just 3 weeks.

If you're really desperate, stick to workouts that don't use your wrists (pec deck, legs, etc).

Your collarbone can't move, so the clicking's not coming from there. It's probably your shoulders.

Are you warming up enough?

Definitely the leg press. Don't lock your knees when the legs are extended.

It takes you 3 hours to do those 5 exercises? Are you napping in between sets?

Instead of 5 sets, cut it down to 3 and up your weights.

Those are all variations of pretty much the same movement.

If you want to make sure you're working every part of the bis you should add hammer and twisting curls too.

If she's still relatively young (under 30 yo) and wasn't too obese previously, the loose skin will slowly tighten over time and eventually go away. There's no way to rush it without surgery.

Besides the calluses and splinters, probably not much difference.

I did an hour of pushup variations once and the next day my abs were shot. So yes, pushups do work the abs. Make sure you go slowly and engage your core the whole time.

Even if they only have crap food at your school (doubt it) you can still loose fat. You just have to count your calories (accurately!) and then eat at a reasonable deficit.

Calorie expendature >...

That's the most useless calculator I've seen. You'd probably get more accuracy throwing darts at a bunch of random numbers.

To start off you need to lower your body fat and get rid of that flab. This is all about diet (ie. eat at a calorie deficit).

Then do a search for ab/core workout suggestions on this forum. It's...

OP, feel your face with your hands. Besides skin/fat/bones, is there much muscle there you can actually work out?

My favorite is HIIT with a treadmill. Watch a TV show you like and the time will fly by. My second fave is spinning/cycling.

I went from over 18% BF down to 10% in around 8 months with a...
