Gains
Weight:
Mostly gained at my waist.
Lifestyle
(prior to program):
Couch Potato.
Background:
Have started and stopped BFL quite a few times... this last time I got derailed by some major financial and personal issues and ended up gaining back all the weight I've lost doing body for life. UGH. Sometimes these serious setbacks are what we need to take a giant leap forward... so I am back on track.
Goals:
Finish the 12 weeks
Keep going after the 12 weeks
Current Challenge: Lose a minimum of 25 lbs and up to 50lbs of fat while gaining muscle, get down into the 250-260s (or near at a minimum).
Starting BP averaging 145/100. Goal of consistent readings of 120-130/80-89 by end of this challenge. I am already getting these sporadically! Long term goal is 170/115 or less, but I will settle for 120/80 for now.
Resting pulse at or below 60. It started at 70-75. Already in the low-mid 60s most readings.
Most important goal is to adopt a new way of eating and pattern of exercise as a habit to continue it after any challenges are done.
Be at or near normal body weight by the time I return to the USA - hopefully around 8-10 months from now. I think I can do it in 3 challenges or at least get close.
Be in shape to add/replace some of the workouts with MMA/BJJ training by the end of this challenge.
