How do I help someone that is full of shit? You ask me for my "expertise" or opinion- but you lie about your stats or over estimate what you want to think it is.... That's why I don't spend much time in Q&A. I've been here for 8 years- I've learnt some things. I also learned that garbage in = garbage out for formulas.... so unless someone knows within somewhat accurate #'s where they are... I'm not getting involved.
I think your expectation of information on the internet is a bit high...this will no doubt lead to dissapointment lol. You can only do the best with the info you are given. The reality is that every 35 y.o, 8% 235, 6'2" guy lifting for 15 years could ...in all actuality be 17, 25%, 275, 5'8" and never been to the gym.

It is what it is!
