    Waist versus Pounds Ratio

    There's a rule of thumb that gives the ratio of pounds reduced to inches reduced off of your waist, but I can't remember or find what it is.

    Does anyone know that?

    That's because it doesn't exist. You may lose 5 lbs of fat, but if it all comes off of your ass then your waist is no smaller. Fat storage is all genetics/gender based.

    No gym for home, work out floor with 30, but is it for 20 like 30 lb when you no lift it to be for men, for 30 lbs instead? or half is 10 for 20 pounds?
