Hi everyone, I forgot about posting my blog and workout yesterday…too busy reading all of yours
I had a very productive day…got a lot of progress made on my BIG PROJECT and need to make the same amount of headway today! I was in such a groove that I moved my workout from 2 to 4 yesterday and it worked out good, but then I had to fight traffic in the gym and on the way home. That’s why I LOVE going to the gym at either around 10 am or 2 pm…no one is there and the traffic is light
OH I also wanted to post my measurements from MONDAY…the start of my buffing: Today’s Date:_____4-23-07____
height:____5-6.5_________ weight:____128_______ age:____31___
Please list the following measurements:
Bust (around the biggest part, women only):37
Chest (just under armpits with arms down at your sides):37 flexed/posed;34relaxed
Waist (the smallest part):26.5
Hips (the largest part of your butt):35
Shoulders (around the outside of your shoulders with your arms at sides):42
Biceps (relaxed at midpoint of upper arm):9.75relaxed;11flexed
Thigh (8” above Knee cap):19.5
Thigh (12” above Knee cap):20.5
Calf (7” below knee joint): 13
Caliper measurements
*Tricep:6
*Thigh:8
*Iliac:6
Abdomen (I do this one for kicks, since I am an apple):8
All my measurements are fine and similar to what they’ve been in the past EXCEPT for my caliper ones…they are HIGHER than they’ve been in ages. I attribute this to my training for my race and my diet. During my recent training…I cut down on lifting from 5-6 days a week to around 3. And my diet went from about 30% carbs to 50%. For the past 3 weeks I have been getting back on track with lifting and eating to get BUFF. I can tell I’ve made progress already and hope to kick it into HIGH gear these 2 weeks of buffing!!!
If you’d like this document to track your measurements on you can get it here
Also my most recent pictures were taken about 5 weeks ago and are HERE
