Week 28
Another week of plugging along. My weight stayed at 174 for a few days for the first time ever, which was encouraging. I got looking through the pix that I took last weekend and this evening I put up a couple of progress shots comparing when I started in October to last weekend. The front double bi and relaxed back shots were impressive, IMHO, the back especially. Nothing like some visual encouragement! I really need it about now since I seem to have plateaued a bit and it seems like I am not making any progress.
BF% measurement tonight was down two more mm in the total. According to the chart I am now at 12.6% BF. Great, if it is really true. It seems like I still have too much flab jiggling around on my pecs and abs to be halfway between 10% and 15%, but that’s what the chart says. I got it from http://www.betterbodz.com/library/bodyfat.html and is what I have been using all along. I found another site with a bunch of online calculators that you punch in your pinches and age, but it was telling me a few weeks ago that I was at 9.8% or something ridiculous like that. Whatever, the pinch totals are coming down. When I did my first BF% pinches back in October, my abdominal pinch alone was 31 mm, tonight it was 12 mm… that’s quite a change for the better, since my pinch total is now only 37 mm.
It’s progress so I keep liftin’.
