DC77 - Sept 2011 - Shape Up

Decided it give this a go to add a bit to my training.
 
Stats
 
Weight - 12st 8ibs
Height - 5ft 6ins
 
Neck - 16ins
Chest - 44ins
Waist - 36ins
R. Arm - 15ins
L. Arm - 15.5ins
R. Leg - 23.25ins
L. Leg - 23.5ins
R. Calf - 15.75ins
L. Calf - 15.75ins
 
Goals - To drop 14ibs and increase strength and fitness, I do some boxing twice a week so performance and aesthics are both priorities. I am hoping for a little muscle memory too (fingers crossed)
 
Supplements - Standard stuff - got a bit of creatine, L-Glutamine, fish oils, protein blend, MRPs ec.
 
Planning on doing this natural but I do have 6 weeks worth of T-Bol which I will be starting once the fat has come off.

Thanks for everyone messages.

I plan on using this journal to measure progress weekly.

I have a journal running which is used to log training.

Weight - 12 st 3ibs (-5ibs)

Waist - 34 inches (-2inches)

Training - only managed 2 workouts this week but plan on getting in Saturday and Sunday. Hectic week at work and at hone so not the best week to start but should be better next week

Diet - calorie wise good but need to increase protein intake.

Alcohol - haven't had a drink since last Sunday which is my biggest Achilles heel, plan on staying dry for 2 week then having a wine on a Saturday only when i have a 2 hr cheat window

Weight loss this week is no doubt water but it's a move in the right direction.

Well done on the weight loss mate.......if your keeping your diet strict then you,ll get the results you want, good stuff!

as hoppy said welldone budy your doing well keep it up and u should come in nicely and look great at the end off the 12 weeks

Thanks guys!


Weight - 12 st 1.5ibs (-1.5ibs)

Waist - 34 inches (same)

Training - training is going really well if not a little eclectic as I have been combining weight, boxing and cardio.

Diet - same as last week calorie wise good but need to increase protein intake. Did asda big shop yesterday so the stocks are there now!

Alcohol - fell of the wagon last night which my first drink since starting the shape up. Had planned on just having one on Saturday but felt like a few glasses of wine, need to just keep an eye on it.

Overall quite happy, the waist didn't go down but legs and arms are starting to show some separation

Early update as I am going to Alton Towers tomorrow

Weight - 12 st 1ibs (-.5)


Waist - 33.5 inches (-.5)

Training - crap have been feeling I'll all week so have only done some weights twice - back to it next week I hope!

Diet - increased protein intake and still lean on the cake so probably an improvement!

Alcohol - no drinking since Saturday till I had a glass of white wine last night as I was feeling I'll and a bit so for myself. Will have a few tonight and tomorrow and see how next week goes!

Not the best of weeks but onwards and upwards next week!

Have things picked up since the last progress update?
 
I've been fighting to stave off the beginnings of a cold that everybody else seems to have , touch wood seems to be working .
 
I would imagine the boxing should help considerably - it makes me tired just watching if I go to pick my son up from training!

Hope your back to 100%, how was Alton Towers?

Yes mate a lot better now, the joys of having kids - germs!

I'm going to load up on the l-glutamine and vitamins - might be worth a punt

The boxing is great basically an hour of hiit, the coach is very good and works us very hard!
