I will try and have told my parents however I am curious if I should take a week off from lifting eat more and then commence next week with lifting again or can I (should I) continue this week as well?

I’ve come to realise this is a cry for help you are right. I have always known I was underweight but yet despite knowing I could put on a few pounds I would try to maintain that underweight weight for some reason. I feel it’s due to being chubby in the past and finally slimming down and not wanting to lose the “progress”…

Current physic update seems about the same? I’m not sure how much I currently weigh till Saturday but hopefully the numbers went up.

RENPHO scale that shows you your weight and then transfers what I assume are estimates to the app on the phone of fat, muscle and what not. The scale does say around 5% body fat but I don’t necessarily know of its accuracy I think a dexa scan would be necessary for that matter.

Thank you all for the advice! I have kept cardio limited and did my weekly weigh in and went from 117.04 to 117.06; however, I’m not sure if I did go up in weight my scale says it is muscle mass but I’m not sure. I am also certain I ate less this week simply due to time restraints but maybe the minimal cardio had to do…

Yeah I generally don’t like them as I like volume in my foods so I tend to avoid them for that reason also yeah just not a huge fan of them taste wise. However am I like severely underweight is my question as I seem to keep losing weight add a steady pace. Is that bad per say?

I do have a low fat diet and simply because I don’t have an eye for fats. The only real fats I get are from eggs, refried beans, rice (depending on which one was made that day) and any residue from avocado oil spray. I have limited cardio but is that the best choice? Should I still do cardio or wait for weight gain from…

Well breakfast is usually either scrambled eggs, turkey bacon with Ezekiel bread or sweet potato or I will have two slices of Ezekiel bread with some pbfit, banana, and a protein shake. I don’t eat any vegetables when I don’t have classes but when I do my lunch is left over chicken or canned tuna with broccoli,…

The doctor that I saw all agree that he is not the most reliable in anything and recently got switched due to moving out of that age range for doctors. He said something about being on the low end of the percentile and monitored my weight for a month and at the end of that month I ended up losing weight and he told me to…

I just weighed myself today in the morning with no food besides a bottle of water and in normal underwear and I weighed in at 118 which means I weigh less than I expected so would like advice based on this new realisation. Cheers!

I am thinking in buying the bowflex dumbbells and using those for the time being as in around 6 months I’ll have access to a gym but for the meantime I think that would be good or maybe always as they pack a lot of weight.

Since I do not track besides breakfast I have no idea.

https://www.muscleandstrength.com/workouts/dumbbell-only-home-or-gym-fullbody-workout.html This is the current plan I am now following started this week not sure how intense as I only have access to 5-20lb dumbbells but I am doing it. Will in my case even in a surpluses be able to be in a healthy weight without much fat…

This is my current physic and not sure whether I am dangerously thin or still somewhat in the unhealthy range. I do enjoy jump roping on my rest days for a good hour however so would that mean a significant caloric increase. Also for right now should I not do cardio and wait till I gain a little or just eat a lot and do…

Thank you all for your responses! Sorry to get back so late! I have decided to use a 3-day full body split but do not know which one is best I am thinking https://www.muscleandstrength.com/workouts/dumbbell-only-home-or-gym-fullbody-workout.html or https://www.muscleandstrength.com/workouts/3-day-full-body-dumbbell-workout…

I am doing a common split with excessive that I choose given I only have dumbbells and kettlebells. Monday (Dumbbell Squats 4x14, Bodyweight Squats 4x13, Dumbbell deadlifts 4x14, Bulgarian Split Squats 4x14 each leg, Calve Raises 4x14; side dumbbell lateral raises 4x14, front lateral raises 4x14, overhead shoulder presses…

For cardio, I jump rope using 1/4, 1/2, and 1 pound ropes by crossrope so I'm guessing I do hit more of my muscle groups then if I would simply go for a jog but I usually do it steady state for 55-60 minutes so I was thinking about cutting that into 20-30 minutes of HITT using just the 1/4 and 1/2 pound ropes.
