Question 1

how do i work out my bmr?

Accepted Answer

Calculate: You can get an estimate by using the following calculation. BMR = (height in centimeters x 6.25) + (weight in kilograms x 9.99) - (age x 4.92) - 161. The result will be in calories. Your true BMR will likely be different as it varies from person to person. The only way to do this that I'm aware of is using some pretty fancy laboratory techniques...

Question 9

is it ok to workout with a cold?

Accepted Answer

Above the neck: As a general rule, if your symptoms are limited to above the neck (runny nose, sore throat), you can continue your regular workout.  If you have problems, you might need to decrease the length or intensity.  If you are having problems with fever, chest pain, shortness of breath, abdominal pain or cramping, or muscle aches then you should limit your exercise until you're feeling better.

Question 10

when should i start to work out?

Accepted Answer

Workouts: 13 is a good time to start working out.  You are still growing so you will get bigger and stronger without doing anything. I would recommend finding a mentor who is an adult and ask to join him or her in their workout. It's always more fun and safer working out with a partner. 3 days a week is plenty. At your age learn the proper lifting technique.  Don't be concerned about the amount of weight.
