Fat Loss can’t happen fast enough!
Glad to say I hit my goal last week of dropping 1/8-1/4" off my waist - went from 33-3/4" to 33-9/16", a drop of 3/16" or just over 1/8". Wish it could go faster, but if I keep it up a little at a time, I should hit my waist goal of 32" by the end of the year.
Added more veggies to the meals, drank about a gallon of water a day, tried a few new P90X workouts, and did 4 days of cardio.
Hurt my right elbow area on chest day - might’ve been using too much weight on the twisted dumbbell flyes and it feels like an aching tendon when I move it a certain way. Gonna try to ease up on that arm this week and use lighter weights. This is Week 12 of my "Intro Phase" of getting back into training, so I’ve got a full week off of workouts coming up Aug 31st, which’ll hopefully help the arm recover more quickly.
I’ve scheduled a bodyfat test with a trainer next weekend, so I’ll post those results when they’re ready. My guess is I’ll come in at around 20-21% bodyfat - the trainer uses a 7-point measurement calculation that I think is way more accurate than my little plastic Accumeasures! I’m also gonna pick his brain on modifying my nutrition plan for optimal fat loss.
The pic below is from 8/19/2009 - I’m seeing a little more muscle, but DAMN that belly fat is taking forever to disappear!
Have a great week everybody!
