After all the hard work .............. I'm normal

In the beginning, which seems like an age ago now, my personal trainer hooked me up to some electrical device that takes a myriad of readings by sending electical pulses around your body. After my initial test, the machine prompty blew up, or simply gave up through exhaustion. But tonight I was informed that the old Bodystat 1500 has risen from the ashes after more than a year's recovery time.

Drum roll, please, for the results:

OLD ME: Fat % = 46.5% (or 10 stones). Target = 13 - 19%.
NEW ME: Fat % = 16.2% (or 2 stones, 2 pounds).

OLD ME: Water % = 33.3%. Target = 60%.
NEW ME:
Water % = 58.8%.

OLD ME: Lean muscle % = 53.5%. Target = 85%.
NEW ME:
Lean muscle % = 83.8%.

OLD ME: BMI = 40.5. Target = 22.
NEW ME: BMI = 25.0.

OLD ME: Weight = 21 stones 7 pounds (301 pounds / 137 kg).

Current weight is 13 stones 2 pounds (184 pounds / 83.5 kg). This in itself is quite an achievement considering the abuses that took place over New Year.

Overall target = Ironman France this Summer.

Yeah well, if you'd been fit all your life you'd be old and knackered like me.

Your body's like a newborn baby's - hardly used, barely run in, fresh out of the crate.

I have finally been freed from the fatty Matrix.
