Becks' Shape up-lose the blubber-pics page 6

Hiya, definitely right up for this after last years injury spattered nightmare.
 
Am currently just under the heaviest I've ever been and I'm thoroughly unhappy with myself.
 
Height: 5ft 10inch
Weight: 14st 3lb
Unassisted
Cutting
 
Goals are to reduce my waist measurement and overall bodyfat, if I can add a little muscle while doing this that will be brilliant.
 
Measurements and piccies up tomorrow.
 
 
 

Measurements are as follows:-
 
Weight- 14st 3lb
Height-  5ft 10inches
 
Chest-43 inches
Waist-41 inches
Upper Arm-12 3/4 inches
Thigh-22 3/4 inches
Calf-16 3/4 inches
 
Time for the dreaded snaps

 

 

 
Workouts will be 3x weights workouts followed by 20 mins cardio and
                           3x 45 mins s/s cardio per week.
 
 
 

Best of luck with this :-) Out of intrest what is your deit going to be ?

Cheers, basically trying to cut out the crap.
I'm a girl who loves her food.
 
Lots of lean protein with moderate carbs and supplementing with flaxseed oil. I'll try and get some
oily fish in there as well.
 
In theory a max of 2 cheat meals a week but aiming for 1.
 
Aiming for approx 1900 cals a day or is this to high?

Cool Sounds smart. Just keep at it. I allways find doing cardio or double cardio the day after the cheat helps :-)

I honestly couldnt really say, All i can say is go with the planned diet/cal intake and monitor and adjust if your not shifting weight then reduce intake /and/or/ up cardio.

Al lthe best :)

 Thanks for looking in

Best of luck, glad i'm not the only female! 

Yay, first session of cardio for a fair while.  Shattered.
600 calories burned off, many thousands to go.
Good to get started though.

Back on the weights tomorrow.

Good Luck Becks, think about timing of food as well what you eat,  ask in the nutrition forums if you need guidance. 

All the best!!

Good luck Becks, nice to have Females entering, it shows this site isnt just male orientated.
