Incase anyone is wondering, I got these numbers from I got them from 2 books:Absolution by Shawn Phillips and the Body for Life by Bill Phillips...great books
Final point...no matter how much muscle you have, your not gonna be able to see its best definition as long as theres unwanted fat covering it.

Ok I was in the Army but you know more about fitness then me....
