Week 6 Measurements

Well its been 6 weeks since I started training for my competition. On Saturday (Jan 7, 2011), we did my measurements to see where I stood.
Here are my results:
weight: 102lbs
Body Fat: 14.42%
Lean Mass: 87.29lbs
Fat Mass: 14.71lbs
Hydration Index: 5.46
Arms: 8 1/2" each
Chest: 28 1/4"
Abs: 25"
Hips: 30"
Thighs: 17" each

We also broke up my training a little bit and I used kettle bells for the first time ever. This was a very challenging experience but I really enjoyed doing something different. It also helped decrease my cardio workout from 60min to 30min on the step mill.

My pics: Not the best but I have to do the before and after to show progress. I am only flexing muscles in the obvious pic and the rest I just look plain tired. My belly looks bloated from all of the water that I have been having to drink (1 gal per day-ugh) and the rest of my body is working on adding muscle tone.





















Today was my cheat day (mentally & physically) for the week. Yaay for pizza & ice cream today!!!! I have been counting down to this day since Thursday. I'm not sure why I struggled mentally so much on Thursday, but everything that I had to eat/drink wasn't appealing at all. I was cranky & irritable which made for a very long day. Once I got to the gym, I was actually relieved to take out my frustration on my workout.
