Uneven body fat distribution
How do you deal with uneven body fat distribution? Or what recommendations do you have. Visually Upper half looks mid/low teens, bottom half is almost 25%, upper is bones showing almost unhealthy looking yet lower is still celulite and jiggly. Sorry best way to explain it. Bodpod has me right around 19.5%. Not sure how to…

Bodpod- is it worth it?
I found a local location that does it. Is it worth the money? Did you think so? How did it compare to your body fat estimates from home/tape/caliper methods? I am debating it as I am more scientifically motivated and I know I started well above 30% and am wondering really what I am at now.

What to do when you can't progress on deadlift?
I am sure this might have been asked before. Due to car accidents and back injuries I can not progress past a bar and 90lbs on a deadlift. And by that I mean 1 set of 1 without sore back the same day and next day. Even just using 2 15lb dumbbells I get the same but can do 5 sets of 8 no problem. Stiff leg or standard…

adjustable dumbbells, full body dumbbell workout?
Are they worth the money vs multiple smaller dumbbells? Has anyone used them? I have given up on a traditional gym due to budget and childcare options (6 month old) and work 7am-7pm. The 24 hour centers obviously don't have childcare. I found a functional looking workout: http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/rudy6.htm I used to…

Getting back into running, how long?
Those who have stopped a workout routine before how long did it take you to get back to your old form? I used to lift but I would also go run 5k after my lifts and 10k on weekends or days it was too nice out to be inside the gym. Since I ran outside I missed last winter and then found out I was pregnant and couldn't work…

Knowing portions, Dropping without logging.
I have been active on here since Fall 2012. I started out at around 212lbs. I kept going and got down to 150.2lbs at my lowest in summer 2014. I loved lifting and at the time was benching my weight, squatting 2x my weight, and my leg press was over 3x my weight. :smile: I found out spring 2015 I was pregnant. Wasn't…

BodPod
Is it worth it to pay for this? What weight range would you do it at? With calipers I am estimating around 26.75%, Fit2Fat says 27.75% right now at 174lbs. I am thinking maybe one now, and one around 155-160 (my original goal weight was 160) and then tweak from there? Or is it really not worth the money? I found a gym that…
