9% Bodyfat! What an amazing surprise!
So, as you may know I have been cutting like crazy. I have been doing cardio like a cracked out bunny for months, weight training, and doing plyometrics. For the last month I have been living on, meats, vegetables, sugar free jello, diet soda, and whey protein with weekly carb ups. I was tracking, even though I knew better, my body fat with an Omron fat-loss monitor. The thing never read me below 17%, even though I was doing everything right and looking amazing. I had been stalling, on getting a hydrostatic weighing, through Mobile Body Fat Test, becuase, it was accurate, and I was afraid it would show me just how fat I really am. Boy was I wrong!!!!!
It read me at 117lbs and 9.1% bodyfat. I am still in shock and extreamly happy that all my work paid off. Even better, is the comfort of knowing that I do know what I am doing, in this fitness thing, and I should keep on trucking to my first comp in ‘09.
I get to stop cardio(hurray!!!) and just do weights 6 days/week and plyo 2 days/week.
Updated Goals:
- Generally Build-up while maintaining 14-16% body fat
- To continuing building a nice v-taper.
- Build rounder, mature shoulders
- To be 120-125 at 6-8% by comp time.
Wish me luck!
