And they're off....

So, day one is done and dusted.

I've been psyching myself up  about starting this for a couple of weeks and I'm really pleased to have started it. October the 30th seems like a long way off. The biggest area of concern is the booze...and salt. Two things I definitely over indulge in, but as they say, you've got to be in it to win it. I know the booze is what's holding me back in terms of progress in the gym, so I'm really hoping that PCP is the focus I need to cut back on this most enjoyable vice!

The exercises today were fine, I know Patrick is easing us in to this, they will get a lot tougher. My first 100 skips were a complete shambles, but I seemed to get the hang of them eventually, but I had no idea they could be so tiring. I've got images in my head of skipping like a boxer by October but I think this could be wishful thinking.

Day one vital stats are as follows

• Weight - 81 kgs
• Body Mass Index - 25.0
• Fat mass % - 18.7%
• Waist to hip ratio - 0.92
• VO2 Max - 36
• Resting Heart Rate - 70 bpm

I'm only really interested in points 2 and 3. I'd really like to get my fat % down to below 10%.......we'll see where we are in 3 months time.

Good luck everyone!
