Have a little higher variety of greens leafy vegetables. ie. spinach, green beans etc. Also try Quinoa out, it's jam packed full of calcium, protein and complex carbs.
Giant sets are 10 sets of a certain exercise. Obviously you'll only do that with 1-2 other exercises for a body part as it takes up so much time. YOu can superset your giant sets with some cardio.
Also make sure you are doing HIIT 4 times per week! Since you have knee pain try it on the bike. (discontinue if you feel any pain)
yes, you can try with thera-bands in week 4. They're so great to work with.
Also make sure you keep track of your reps in a journal. You should be increasing your weight 5% a week. You'll notice a huge difference in the amt you can lift after week 5
