Wedding in 6 weeks

I am getting married in 6 weeks and hope to lose 10 ish pounds before the wedding. What is the best way to prep to lose weight in that short amount of time while making sure I still look vibrant on the big day. I am a former athlete who can usually eat upwards of 3,000 calories and maintain/ lose weight. However I just got cleared from a knee injury so I haven’t been active much and I struggle to fight food cravings through out the day.

Clinically effective dose website?

I know Tony has mentioned it a few times but i can’t remember the name of the website that lists the clinically effective dose for everything. Could you guys link it?

not just lifting to lose fat?

I thought just lifting weight was enough to lose fat and maybe hit 10k steps/day. Doesn't seem to be working even with the calorie counting. Do I need to throw in a couple of high intensity cardio (boxing or sprinting) each week?

Should you do 10-20 sets per week for smaller muscle groups too?

I know for hypertrophy you should do 10-20 sets per muscle group per week but I see in your workout programs, some muscle groups have less than ten sets each week. For example the high frequency full body program has only 7 sets of biceps and triceps each week. Is that intentional? Should we add more to get that 10 set minimum per week? I feel that this would be a good question to answer for anyone else who may be wondering the same as well. Huge fan of your podcast. Thanks!!

The Proof - Simon Hill

Have you heard of "The Proof" with Simon Hill and his 12 week Living Proof Challenge? If so, what are your thoughts? Would you modify the list to be more realistic? Lastly, would the blood test through Marek Health cover the required readings for this challenge?
