Currently Adam and I are entering week 7 so I thought I’d catch up and put our results from Phase 1 (the first 4 weeks). These results are based on following the nutrition guide (with a few cheat meals – Adam’s birthday etc.), running a couple times a week (Kelly), and doing a minimum of 6 workouts per week (sometimes 7).
Tape Measure Results:
(Kelly in blue, Adam in green, in inches)Waist: -1.5 (-1.75)
Chest: -1 (+1)
Hips: -.5 (-1)
Calf: 0 (0)
Bicep: +.5 (0)
Other Results:
Body Fat %: Unfortunately we didn’t get our fat caliper in time to have a before and after – but we should have some movement on it for the end of phase 2. I can confidently say our percentages are down even without the exact measurement.
Weight: We weighed ourselves back in October for our first round, but didn’t weigh ourselves again at the beginning of this round (dang!). I don’t own a scale and don’t have one conveniently available. Additionally I really didn’t want to get caught up on numbers so didn’t harass any neighbors to locate a scale. That being said I would estimate I have lost between 4-6 lbs. of fat since October. Maybe around 2 lbs. for phase 1? So it’s definitely working! I will likely try harder to find a scale at the end of this round to have a complete start and end number at very least.
Overall Fitness: Wow am I stronger! I can run faster and longer and I truly think a huge portion of this is P90X. I feel healthier and happier. So on top of the actual results, there have been many ‘side-effect’ results. Adam made the comment, “You seem like you!” I take this to mean that I’m happier and less tired :) Always a good thing!
So far so good – looking forward to our next check-in soon!
