me too! my balance isn't always great and my knees suck so i thought it was just that!
And if I move like 1 mm, it’s a completely different stretch on my legs, so I don’t even know if I have the right position.

so true. my biggest worry is usually tied:
a)is my back foot solidly on the step?
b)making sure the front knee doesn't go over my toes
since we are usually doing groups of x exercises (circuits) with no break, i usually feel rushed when i set up too.
 
Imma start on teh CICO plan too, calzones in, calzones out. Damn that just made me hungry... seriously though, I need to ramp my activity up. More walking, bodyweight exercises and some free weights. @Ice_Ice_Brady I watched a youTube vid of a backbacker dude that lost a ton of weight doing a similar calorie deficit thing, pretty interesting, I could never do the counting and stuff.

 
God damnit. It’s 21 Guns day.

That sounds brutal. Hope it’s worth it and building strong tone/muscle. Personally I’m not a fan of weight lifting exercise involving strained positions or ones where you’re unbalanced and uncomfortable. I feel like the focus and strain should be only on the isolated muscle itself.

lol i'm a wimp. i used a 10. what you say makes sense. especially for balance challenged people like me... :D i think she was wanting us to fatigue that leg because we did 2 30 sec segments on 1 side w/no break then the standing leg went up on a step platform (i used medium height, my knees suck) and we did step ups, 2 rounds of 30 sec. no break between any of that.

Found a temporary sweet spot for my 1500 calorie, 150g protein diet plan. Been doing this for about a week and it’s been working great in terms of hunger satiety while hitting the macros.

6 AM - Whey protein shake - 150/30
10 AM - Whey protein shake - 120/24
2 PM - 3 taco bell taco supremes - 590/24
6 PM - Whey protein shake - 120/24
Overnight - Whey protein shake - 220/48

Total: 1200 calories / 150 g protein

Bonus Miscellaneous soup/salad/nibbles fillers (or 4th taco supreme) - 300 calories

May also sub out a shake for some Old Trapper Beef Jerky sticks (140 calories, 22 g protein)
