Stats = Good news

Alright, first of all this post is for my records and my own personal motivation, so feel free to stop reading now:)

In order to keep myself motivated in the gym I've been getting my measurements done every three months or so.  I finally got a copy of the results last week so that I can measure myself at home a little more frequently and also just keep a record of my progress.  So, here they are...

September 2, 2011

• Weight: 122.5      (-3 lbs)
• Overall Bodyfat:  22% (-5%) 
• Chest: 32 in.        (-.5)
  
• Waist: 27 in.        (-.75)
  
• Hips: 37.75 in.       (-.75)
  
• Thighs: 21.5 in.   (-1.0)
  
• Arms: 11 in.      (-.5)

So, as of right now I've lost a total of 9 lbs, 5% bodyfat, and 8 inches.  My goal is to get to 18-19% bodyfat.  I do not care about the weight because I am gaining lots of muscle.

As far as cardio goes, I got in a 6 mile run on Saturday in 49 minutes, which is pretty darn good considering I've only been back running for 3 weeks.  I'm switching up my lifting routine a bit and getting sore again, which is always a good thing.  So, here's to losing a little more fat and then maintaining it!
