He he AJ, I only do 20 mins at a time! The other 37 mins were on the sm and the ct!

Thanks to my other fav ladies!!! I KNOW I feel better when I am on track.....so I need to figure out why I am sabotaging myself. Gotta go deeper now.

Supposed to do armies today....not gonna happen my back is SO sore from chins, gonna do legs instead. I hate doing legs. I hate em I hate em I hate em I hate em!

Oh, Im getting my Bf tested at the gym fri, 7am and my day off! I know they do the skin folds. Last time I had my bf tested they put this thingie on my wrist or finger (cant remember) asked me a few questions, then the computer printed off my bf. Anyone know which is more accurate?

sounds like they did a electrical impedance BF test. They probably asked you your age, weight, & height. Fat resists electrical current differently than other parts of your body. I think the electrical method is supposed to be more accurate, but it can be thrown off by dehydration pretty easily. Make sure you are drinking your water properly to get a good read. also, do it before you do any work out. If you do it after your work out, you'll get a bad read...

Yep, studies show that calipers are much more accurate than the bioempedence thing a ma jig. The best method of course is underwater weighing...but ya have to have bucks for it and it's usually done only at hospitals and universities!

Just make sure that you get the same person, using the same spots on your body to do it next time and use Friday's measurements as your baseline.

We will se how my bf turns out. Had it last done in april, with the electrical thing, and Im down about 13 pounds since then. So I dont know how it will compare with the skinfold tests on Friday. Anything lower than April will be fine by me.

Thanks peeps!

Jilly bean!!

I have a tendency to eat badly on the weekends too, too many protein bars and skipping meals altogether.

Snow!!!??? OMG it is too early to be thinking about snow

Jillie - you are doing a GREAT job eating clean most of the time, not to mention all the cardio you do and your intense workouts...in the "Big" picture a few cheats here and there aren't going to break you. You are smart enough to recognize your patterns and I have similar ones (not as strict on the weekends, etc) but also note what IS working for you and tweak things so that is works for you. Obviously you must be doing something right if you are 13 lbs down since 6 months ago....that's a major achievement!!!

Enjoying your new workout clothes

Welcome to winter Jill

My daughter got very excited when she woke up and saw the snow. I love Alberta and the 'no fall' season we miss.
