Results Day: Weeks 25 and 26 – wuzzup?

Nothing!

Just got waylaid on the way to posting last week, so am rolling two into one.

 
I have made myself learn some new tricks and suffice to say this old dog has struggled a little to adapt.

Nice!
Why, say “Nice!”?

Well in the scheme of things I am lucky enough to be comfortable. Wife, Kids, fairly stable job, home, extended family... things are pretty good. So am I being challenged? Not exactly, each one of the above do pose their own problems at certain times but why not take yourself right out of your comfort zone and try something completely different?

I have, I am on the road to becoming a Group Exercise Leader. The exercise of choice is cycling, stationary bikes in a gym using the Les Mills Programme – RPM.

And how marvellous has the journey been? Mind blowing and ace! Yep, I said ACE!

In a week’s time I get to instruct a class all on my own, no training wheels (a la a qualified instructor next to me), totally alone on the stage, me, the mike and the music... taping the video that gets sent away for assessment and certification.

Anyway, enough of my excitement at what lies ahead of me, down to the data, results and review....
Weight: 93.5kg and 92.7kg
Body Fat: 9.1% and 9.4%
Waist: 85-89cm and 85-90cm

OK, so weight has gone up, but can be directly linked to muscle gain and a little fat gain. Not grumbling cos I am still stoked with the idea of being an instructor (though not yet fully qualified), and the fact that my mentors think I am doing well.

Anyway... focus on what is what you want in life and go and get it.

As always,

...Train, enjoy, laugh and then train again...
