  • Is it normal to increase my bench by 10 lbs week.?

    I have been taking strength training in High school. The first time I took it I was very slow to increase in weight (as a sophomore). Now I am taking it again as a senior. I am increasing a ton, Since school started only working the arms two time a week (main lift bench Mondays, main lift military press Thursdays) I have increased my training max from 105 to 140 lbs since the program started (just after school started some time in September) and recently I have been increasing 5-10 lbs a week and it has yet to get very difficult. In class we determine if you can increase by doing 5 extra reps on the last set of the lift and I am consistently able to do this. (we do what is called power training low reps high weight)

    Is this a normal amount of improvement for a 17 year old in 3 months?

  • Getting in Shape to join the Navy.?

    Okay, I am going to be a senior in HS and I would really like to get into the US Navy and preferably get into ROTC. My problem, I am definitely not in shape enough to join as it is.

    I am 17 Years old, Male 5' 10" and 200Lbs. My Body fat percentage is 25% so by technical terms I am obese. But I seem to have my fat spread over my whole body as I definitely don't look or feel like someone who is obese.

    I found that to be considered "Fit" I need body fat between 14-17% I set my aim at 15% this means I am currently 150lbs Lean body mass with 50lbs of fat. I am aiming for 150Lbs Lean Body Mass and 22Lbs of Body Fat. making my total weight 172 Lbs. loosing 28Lbs and more then 50% of my body fat.

    Is this a good plan to get in shape.

    I am going to be going into marching band and that is rather intensive at time but not bad. I also Will be taking a strength training class in school, I have taken this class once before and I did get stronger during the course, but I intense to let the teacher know of my goals to get me doing the right exercises. I am also in possession of the P90X program and some weights so I will hopefully motivate myself enough to get doing that daily.

    As far as food I have no idea, basically I am planning to just eat much smaller portions, essentially I will try to half my portions from what I usually eat as I can eat quite a bit.

    So if I really stick to this guide, should I be in shape to the point I could be a Naval officer. before the end of the 2012-2013 school year. Any modifications or suggestion on a fitness schedule as far as p90x. And I really would dread having to go on a diet as I do like my food and I am terrible at eating health but any easy minimal change diets you suggest.

  • How Can I make my Hair "Brighter"?

    Alright so first Off I am a guy so you might need to take that into consideration for this question. I have what seems to be dull brown hair.

    I original thought I had just really dark brown but Recently I treated my hair with lemon juice and Sun and I tried honey with RO water and some cinnamon. It definitely lightened my hair as I can see my side burns where the hair is thin I have blond hair there now and Individual hair look to be rather light in color. So basically I have light brown dull hair that is thick so it looks very dark still. I would say it is very very dark brown almost looks black But when I stand it up and look in the light it is dull brown.

    I am wanting to make it a more bright brown color and possibly lighter still. Thing is I am not going to use those boxed hair dyes. I would either need some sort of shampoo that will brighten the hair or a natural type thing similar to the lemon juice or honey stuff. Any Ideas on what would work well. I realize some of these things take time to show any major effect.
