SSS Final Entry Instructions and FORM

Week #10 MINI CHALLENGE (week of April 4th)- take measurements, stats, pictures, share your finishing thoughts, comment about your hormones and pick some of your favorite journal/blog posts you or others made during the 10 weeks, ENTRY DUE APRIL 13th

The goal is to see how you’ve changed physically and mentally :) …I think it’d be cool for you to find your week #1 entry and compare it to how you are feeling now Wink Here’s  the week #1 post that shows you how to take pics and stats: http://buffmother.com/?p=6557

Let’s break these 5 KEY points down a bit-
#1-Take measurements, stats
~ very important to use the same tape measure each time. I have a tape measure that’s sole purpose is for measuring bodies
~have the same person measure each time- I measure myself each time
~Be sure to note what cycle day you measure and what time of day also–it really makes a difference!
~Taking measurements is a great way to see if you are losing fat and gaining muscle- often times the scale will not reflect any change, but measurements show change
~Bodyfat measurements are optional, but if you do be sure to get the caliper mm readings along with the %. So that `when you compare you can see changes in the mm’s. Percentage reading are calculated using equations…these vary a ton! Personally I don’t ever figure my %, I just go my my caliper mm readings to see if I am losing or gaining bodyfat. BF should also be done by the same person/same method/same circumstances each time in order to have an accurate comparison.

~ Here are the Measurements and STATS I personally take:

Today’s Date:_________ height:_____________ weight:___________ age:_______
