OK Nat,

I understand and agree with your statements about bodybuilding, but that doesn't seem to apply to Dollygrrl. She has a beginning LBM of 105 lb. and has set a total weight goal of 105 lb. Her calculations were correct for that goal and her LBM loss should be expected. Your suggestion of keeping and even trying to increase her LBM does not computer with her goal.

Most people have a good idea what their ideal weight should be based on past experience before gaining weight. If Dollygrrl want to hold her beginning 105 lb. LBM and drop to 20% fat she would have reset her final goal at 131 lb.

Achieving a bodybuilder's physic takes many hours a day in the gym and a top priority of life. Even then, many people simply don't have the type of body to achieve big growth and others are just naturally very muscular.

I would like to see your results, but your stats do not have the weight shown that is necessary to do so. Have you been able to hold or gain LBM since your starting LC?
