For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

OK then mate, start off with 3200 calories, 230g protein. Right now with the diet on the opposite page I think you're getting about 200g. Instead of 5 eggs per day, make it 12. Have your 5 at breakfast and then spread the rest over the day. you can cook them or mix raw eggs into your whey shakes, for example. :)

I was under the understanding that those last sets (1-3 reps) were necessary to ensure 100% IIB muscle fiber involvement and ultimate strengh gains.

3-5 reps = strength development

and here's another couple of "cop-out/bullsh!t/useless terms in lifting circles". :D
