Well, another workout, another post.
I told you before that I would give you my starting numbers once I brought them in. I brought them in. So here they are. They don't paint a pretty picture.
Height: 71"
Weight: 243 lbs
Weight of Lean Body Mass: 179.70 lbs
Percentage of Lean Body Mass: 74%
Lean Body Mass to Fat Ratio: 2.8:1
Total Body Water 46.8 litres
Weight of Body Fat: 63.30 lbs
Percentage of Body Fat: 26%
Healthy Range of Body Fat (for me): 8 - 17 lbs
Healthy Weight Range: 194 - 217 lbs
Pretty ugly isn't it. But there is already hope. If I use the BMI (Body Mass Index) my healthy weight would be in the range of 133 - 178 lbs. The max under the BMI is 16 lbs under the lowest healthy weight for my body type. Never follow the BMI! Ever!
Anyway, there are 2 more numbers that I need to give you.
Good Body Fat: 17%
Excess Body Fat: 9%
Yes, 9% of my current weight is excess body fat. That is what I am trying to lose...well that and put on some more lean muscle mass.
Back to today's workout.
My amazing trainer Karissa had her first power workout with the extremely huge trainer at World. I don't know his name, I only know that he is a power lifter and is gigantic. He kicked her ass so I was expecting her to take it out on me. She did.
We started with the stair climber, then onto squats and butterflys. We then moved to single-leg leg press and single-arm lat pulldowns. Then it was onto a superset, for me, of stability ball roll-ins, alternate leg-arm supermans, bicycle crunches and side planks (each side). I am not sure that I am going to be able to breathe tomorrow. But I feel better. So, it must be working.
I will not be giving a numbers update until the end to see if I achieve my goal of losing the excess body fat, getting to 204 lbs, and increasing my lean muscle mass. My cardio is already getting better.
Anyway, next workout update will come next Tuesday. See you then.
