I just tried this machine, it detects your body fat percentage. It says I have 4.4% body fat. I wonder is it ok? I am 5'10, 125 lbs, I don't look so sickly thin... Any opinion? I am attending gym three times per week, and try my best to eat mostly protein food.

Well, it may not be totally accurate, those machines don't always get it right. But taking into account you are underweight and if you are building muscle, I guess it's not that unlikely that your body fat percentage would be pretty low.
If it does turn out to be correct, then you may need to put on some weight, as you should not drop below 6% for long periods of time. HTH : )

in case you opt to reduce weight, you have to be very consistent. as well to sit down down united statesand crunches, concentration your interest on cardio routines (ex. operating, swimming, cycling, and so on) operating is your best guess. you do not want to pass to a health middle to run. fairly, I hate operating on a treadmill. it really is so boring and your innovations actually makes a speciality of ending (which makes the exercising consultation look longer.) oftentimes, once you run outdoors, you're continuously shifting and also you've such an excellent type of wonderful issues to ascertain and revel in. Plus, the sparkling air feels wonderful. do not start up understanding by using operating like, ten miles an afternoon. start up by using operating perchance 0.5 of one mile or a mile. steadily advance the area. at present I run 3 miles on a daily basis. Consistency is correct. also, nutrition. Watch what you devour. it truly is not any longer to assert STARVE your self (do not do this, this is going to really screw up your metabolism and make issues more desirable complicated) you already know, healthful issues can style fairly reliable. Take culmination, for example. And the reason why we motel to eating chips and fatty ingredients is because we are too lazy to search for some thing else! take the time to devour fit and exercising on a daily basis. maximum persons search for an "a lot less stressful" route. there is none. Taking pills, getting surgical procedure, and so on all have conceivable undesirable aspect consequences. i understand this is probable no longer what you opt to take heed to (I propose who ENJOYS exercising consultation and giving up hamburgers?) although this is going to assure weightloss. Now, thats no longer to assert this is going to ensue in the present day. although, this is going to ensue. reliable success!!! =]
