My client was reluctant to get her body fat measurements done yesterday, after about 6-7 weeks of training with me. The scales haven't shown much difference since starting - in her own words she's been off track with eating (parties, guests, late nights...).
But the visual change in her body composition is apparent due to her tremendous effort in our training sessions - much more muscle definition, incredible strength gains and a nicely toned body.
It's very important to track progress continuously and so we proceeded with the caliper (skin fold) test.
A's results (2nd Nov/19th Dec):
- body fat %: 31.8/28.5
- fat weight (kg): 22.4/20.1
- lean weight (kg): 48.0/50.3
---> Over 10% loss in overall body fat amount
---> Body fat -2.3kg
--->Lean muscle +2.3kg
SERIOUSLY CHICK!!! Grab a kg of pure fat and you'll start to appreciate just how much you've achieved in such little time.
AND 2.3 kg of extra muscle is AMAZing - and has significantly increased the amount of calories your body burns in a day (BMR) - exactly what we want.
Add that clean eating in to your habits and you'll be lean as f*** in no time!
IMPRESSIVE RESULTS - well done A!! Let's get you the dream body back :-)
