My Body Transformation Log – Day 36
Objective: To Burn Fat Gain Muscle Mass And Transform My Body In 12 Weeks

My Body TransformationToday I decided to listen to my body and just take it easy, so there won’t be any workout detailed below. Instead of the usual, I thought I’d take this opportunity to get caught up and make my body transformation week 5 progress report post.

I opted out of the workout that I had planned and let my body rest. Sometimes backing off a bit and allowing your body to rest and recover is one of the smartest things you can do to continue progressing towards your goals without risking an unnecessary injury – or heading into over-training mode. Tomorrow I plan on being back at the gym, ready to give it my all for a great workout, but today I’m just going to rest.

My Body Transformation Initial Goals

I like to list my initial goals for this 12 week body transformation before I list my current measurements.  It allows anyone who’s new to the blog an opportunity to get some perspective on how much I’ve accomplished over the course of the past 5 weeks.

  • To gain 25lbs of lean body mass
  • To lower my body fat level from 23.2% to 8%
  • To increase the size of my arms by 2 inches
  • To increase the size of my legs by 3 inches
  • To get killer six pack abs
  • To really focus on building up the muscle in my back

And Here Are All of My Current Body Transformation Week 5 Measurements

  • Percent Body Fat – 13.4% (an overall improvement of -9.8%)
  • Current Lean Body Mass – 165.4 lbs (an overall improvement of +14.1 lbs)
  • Current Fat Weight – 25.6 lbs (an overall improvement of -20.1 lbs)

So far, I have to say that I’m really happy with the progress that I’ve made over the course of the past 5 weeks of training and dieting. I think I’m really going to be able to achieve all of my goals by the end of the 12 weeks without having to get too crazy with my diet or workouts – pretty exciting stuff!

Well…that’s all for my body transformation progress report week 5 update.

Your Friend And Trainer,

Nick
