Day 60 - Booooooooom

Congratulations to those who have just finished, a good effort all round, but now get those final posts up as it's good to see how far you've come.

I got home last night feeling depressed and completely knackered. I lay on my sofa, questioning my pitiful PCP existence and contemplating not doing my routine. My finger hovered over the pizza delivery speed dial button and a bottle of red was seductively calling my name like a mythological Greek Siren luring me towards the rocks of PCP damnation.  But a swift self delivered pep talk about the importance of staying true to the cause and unflinchingly focused did the trick and I eventually managed to drag my sorry ass off to the gym.

I got there and realised that it was time for my day 60 stat check-up. I didn't have time to do the full suite but I did have time for the most important of all - body fat %

Day 1286090 Change + / -

Body Mass Index2523.822.9  -2.10  
Fat Mass %18.7%16.8%12.5%  -6.2% 


Having arrived feeling less then enthusiastic, I can't tell you how pleased I was with the fat mass result. I felt as if I was a phoenix rising from the ashes, it really has given me a well needed boost and I managed to tear through the routine on the back of it.

I am though a little perplexed as to how I can still be carrying around such a generous and ample gut, but we've still got another 30 days to go so plenty of time to achieve my goals and hopefully see some positive results.

I'm off to Portugal tomorrow for a few days R&R (bands and rope packed of course). So when I return next week I'll be fully rested and even more motivated for that final push to the finish line. I'm feeling really positive again after a little dip and can't wait to take on all that Pat-Diddy can throw at us.

Good luck to everyone and I hope you all stay strong and have a great final 30 days

  1. mate, phenomenal stats! well done buddy, im shedding a tear right bout now. down to 12.5% with 30 days to go? man, kill it for the next 30. Looking forward to seeing you at Christmas so we can go out for a nice chai non-fat latte and then head out shopping for skinny jeans. Maybe jump some rope, depends if we have time!

  2. great entry that made for some inspired reading! what a way to limp thru the valley, only to recover and revive, when you realize you're down to 12.5% body fat and there's still (only?) 1/3 left!

    enjoy Portugal dude, and thanks for the words of motivation!
