I just joined JROTC and I’m not sure what goal I should set. It’s Air force jrotc also.
Yes i am a college student and recently i am learning about A+. later will start CCNA.
I’m going to a new gym that just opened up right now and they had a party on tonight and they were offering free body composition analysis (electronic impedance) and I’m trying to set an overall goal for myself so I have something to strive for. I know just do your best but it still would be nice to have a goal.
my current stats are
Weight 285.6 Lean Weight 176lbs
Fat% 38.4 Fat weight 109.6
my goal is to have 12% body fat but it’s the goal of how much muscle I want to put on that’s the question. I don’t want to look like a juice pig….just nice and fit
scenario one
Weight 242 Lean weight 213 fat% 12 Fat weight 39 so I would have to lose 70.6 lbs of fat and gain 37lbs of muscle
scenario two
weight 227 lean weight 200 fat%12 fat weight 27 would have to lose 82.6 lbs fat and gain 24lbs muscle
last one was weight 215 lean weight 190 fat 12% fat weight 25 so would need to lose 84.6 lbs fat and gain 14 lbs muscle
I’m just having a hard time because I can’t visualize the muscle gain so I don’t know if 14/24/37 would be right…….any suggestions would be welcomed
thanks for the responses so far and for the support in the second one. Weight training is important because muscle burns fat more than nothing at all and it is important to also know that your body doesn’t enter into fat burning mode until about after 20 mins of cardio so it is actually best to warm up for 10 mins and then do your weight lifting routine followed by your cardio that way you are already in fat burning mode and your cardio will burn fat the entire time. If you don’t do strength bearing exercises along with cardio you stand a risk of losing muscle mass which is counter intuitive. I’ve read Fat wars by brad king and many other sources so I got a feel for what I need to do, I’m just trying to visualize the result a bit and figure out how much fat I want to lose. I’m 5′8 but my lean mass right now is 176 so obviously I don’t want to go below whatever 176 is plus 12% body fat
ive been doing some online research and its hard to find hard answers. Ive read a lot about saving one hundred thousand dollars before developing a portfolio, is there a reason to this? I set that as my goal and am doing well enough, i just want my money to start sorking for me as soon as possible, thanks for your help. And I hate to say this because yahooanswers and the community is extremely helpful to me, but dont patronize me I am looking for good advice. thank you all again.
I saw one of those drama shows on Spanish speaking tv, like “Lo que callamos las mujeres” about a little girl that went without eating for like a week and was diagnosed anorexic. What I can’t wrap my mind around is how much does someone who suffers from anorexia want to weigh? Do they even have an ideal weight in mind? Do these people not set goals or something?
I am starting a 8 week diet plan to lose 41 pounds before my wedding. What should I set my weekly goal at?
