Fat loss vs. LBM loss question
I am trying to crunch some numbers to predict what my BF% will be if I lose a certain amount of weight. My goal is to lose 1.5kg/month (I am losing a little faster now but it's still some holiday weight). How much should I expect it to be fat loss/LBM loss? If I assume 1kg - fat and .5kg LBM, when I get to my goal weight -…

Question
Yesterday I started cycle 3 - increased my weight by 10%. For squats I had to got from 77(did 80 last cycle - I use dumbbells) to 85lbs.

Scoliosis, pain...
I have been doing All Pro's routine for 8 weeks (just 4 weeks with current weights as I had to reset when I bought heavier dumbbells). I have scoliosis and all this time I didn't have any issues lifting until last night, when I got a terrible back pain. Today I went to see my Dr who told me to stop lifting. Then he…

Increasing weight question
I am on week 4 cycle 1. When I started, the heaviest dumbbells I had were 26lbs. So I use them for my SLDL and calf raises (feels very light) and 15lbs dumbbells for Bulgarian split squats. Recently I bought more dumbbells (30, 35, 40, 45 and 50lbs) -Do I just keep using the same weights and cycle 2 go a little more than…

Another Question about All Pro
I am doing week 3 of cycle 1 with dumbbells. My DBs go in 5lbs increments and 10lbs total weight increments. So I use the same weight every day of the week as opposed to 10% less 2nd day and 20% less 3rd day. Is that ok?

Lifting before bedtime
I started last week, so I'm fairly new :) . Is it ok to lift right before bedtime and then to not eat or drink anything except water? I do eat enough during the day and my protein consumption is around 125-130g/day (I'm 5'10", 183lbs and 32-35% bodyfat)

I am running a 10k on Sunday - July 7 - any tips?
I started c25k this February and finished it near the end of March. Since then I have been running 3 times a week - speed intervals on Tuesdays, 5k on Fridays and longer runs on Sundays (went from 6k to 10k from April to now). Last Sunday I ran 10k in 1:04:28. If my training time was that, what would my race time be? would…

Running with mosquitos question
I went for a run last night. Speed intervals. I went later because I don't like to run when it's hot. There where a lot of mosquitos, so I used bug spray. I didn't enjoy my run because of the smell of the bug spray. I am not allergic to it (at least I don't think I am), but sometimes was difficult to breath and I felt a…

Questions
On Monday I did the Iron strength workout, but somehow missed the warmup, so my legs were sore, but not too bad. I ran 5k very slow yesterday because of that and now I can barely move - my legs are very sore. I signed up for my first 5k race on April 27. Will the pain go away until then? Should I run through the pain or…
