As for the thighs, there's no way to burn fat selectively from one part of the body more than others as fat loss is a whole body thing. As far as getting past your weightless plateau (which would likely effect your thighs). I would focus more on eating less than on exercising more if I were you. You could burn 1,000…

The most calorie efficient vegetarian proteins I know are egg whites, boca burgers (original), seitan, and tofu. The least calorie efficient vegetarian proteins are nuts and nut butters (1 tbsp of peanut butter has the same number of calories as 1 tbsp of regular butter with only four grams of protein - and raw nuts are…

My first suggestions to anyone whose weight loss is stalling would be the following 1. cut down on the "healthy" foods that are high in calories but not very satiating, specifically nuts, nut butters, dread fruit, granola, avocados, liquid milk, protein shakes, and fruit juice. Those things are healthy for athletes who…

I guess muscle is heavier per cubic inch but that is misleading since each pound of muscle gives a person the appearance of being much heavier than one pound of fat does. That's why shredded people are usually very much lighter than they look. I'm at a fairly muscular 9.5% body fat and most people guess my weight as 160…

One hour is a standard amount of time for a lifting session.

You may want to check out the leangains cheatsheet at nerd fitness rebellion. For cutting body fat, it suggests eating AT mantinance on lifting days and 20% below mantinance on non-lifting days.

The information you want is on the internet. It's just scattered in different places on the leangains site and in posts by some of Martin's clients. The leangains faq is one good place. If it were me, I would never eat below mantinance on a lifting day even when trying to lose overall weight. Instead, I would decrease the…

Sorry for the delayed reply. In terms of the specific calories you eat on lift vs non-lift days when cutting is your main goal, the numbers you mentioned seem reasonable if you are able to hit those numbers somewhat comfortably (Personally I get so hungry on lift days that I'd have a harder time going below +20% than i…

To my understanding, the most common practice on leangains is to eat 20% above maintinance cals on lifting days and 20% below on non-lifting days. This averages out to a slight deficit per week unless you lift 4 days a week (lg calls for btwn 2 & 4 lift days per week). You can change these caloric ratios based on your…
