I GIVE UP !! No, not on training, are you nuts?! But I do give up on an actual weight-based goal. Seriously, if I stick to that "133.4 lbs" idea, I’ll get so frustrated and discouraged that I probably will quit training, which is purely idiotic! Why I’m saying that? Because this whole week my weight has progressively crept upwards. No TOM, no wrong foods or too little/much foods, no less cardio or weight training; everything is working perfectly, like a well-oiled machine. My bodyfat is just as steadily on a downward crawl as the scales are crawling upwards, so that’s not the issue either. Guess what: 7MM works!! Yup, I’m adding lean mass "like crazy" which is making the overall weight go up although the bodyfat % and my size are both going down. And I’m not one of those male testo-bombs either, just a "little old lady" nearing 50. Did I hear someone saying "I’m too old to change my body"? My answer is simple "Get outta here!" lol. Not literally! Stay, please. Stay in the gym, stay with EODD and 7MM, because I’m living proof this works like nuts! I was toying with the idea yesterday, of lowering the weights on the exercises, to stop stimulating those muscles to grow more, thereby getting the scales to show lower numbers again. Know what? I’d get bored! And frankly, I couldn’t do it Arms today, as a result of not backing down, was And I know I can get more reps in before I change the weight, curls will be a "problem" as I’ll have to jump straight to 25# (or try cable curls which I’ve never liked), the pressdown is fine as I can add 2.5# easily all the way. But more reps first, even if I have to cut the rest periods to 5 seconds (and write the total in bulk once I take 10 second breaks, because I can’t write fast)enough to do it in 5 seconds)! With all this going on in my head, how do I set a goal when I don’t want to think about total weight anymore? BFP. BodyFatPercentage. I remember reading someone I know saying he’d never known a woman who couldn’t get to 14% Goal = 14% BF by mid-December. So there ~*~ OK, how many of you are scratching your heads wondering what in tarnation I’m talking about? 7MM, EODD, what?? Let me explain: Ads By CbproAds EODD first, Every Other Day Diet. The easiest nutrition plan ever devised, and I’m not kidding! I’ve read a few diet books and "diet" books, and this one takes the gold medal for simplicity and results all rolled up in the simplest-to-use plan I’ve ever seen. Heck, you even get graphics of your hands to litteraly see … ok, I’m not giving it away, but frankly, it’s the best I’ve seen. 7MM now, 7 Minute Muscle. You go to the gym, set up your station, train your weights for 7 minutes, jump on a cardio machine for 9 minutes just to burn off the released fat that’s circulating in your body after the weight training, and you’re out of there. Total time, with the set-up, max 20 minutes. Now, tell me frankly that you cannot find 20 minutes a day, 5 days a week to train! It’s even faster than a sit-com without the commercial breaks! And as you’ve just seen at the beginning of the post: this combination works "du tonnerre" as the French would say, although what thunder has to do with anything … Fat goes away, muscle comes on, inches melt off, muscle definition is evident, clothes fall off, if I have to buy any smaller sizes now I’ll either have to go to the kids department, or to some of the stores where I know their clothes are sized small – the ones I coould only go window-shopping at before. Go get your copies, right now! Read EODD, print the weekly meal plan for the program you choose (there are three) and stick it on your fridge with a magnet or four. Read 7MM and print the workout sheets (you’ll really need those), stick them in a binder, and head for the gym. Just imagine the looks on the faces of the trainers and other members as you whip in and out in under 20 minutes every day! They’ll snicker, shake their heads, call you an idiot andd ignorant fool. In a month they’ll still be shaking their heads, but I guarantee no one is snickering or calling you a fool! They’ll want to know what you’re doing, because the difference is already very visible! Lewis and I are both using Jon Benson’s 7MM in combination with Every Other Day Diet and we are both seeing great results both on the fat loss front and the muscle building one. Yes, we are waging war on two fronts simultaneously, and it is working. I’m following the Extreme Plan for EODD, but I started with the Lifestyle Plan first. For someone who’s just starting on a new fitness lifestyle, I suggest the Primer Plan, just to get used to better nutritional habits. For 7MM, it’s just grasping the entire concept, knowing you have to concentrate for 7 minutes and not talk to anyone, let anyone distract you, just totally go for it; and dive in. You have to be willing to go for progression with every single workout, to feel the good pain of sore muscles and their protest as you ask them for more the following week. If you think you can just get by with a light weight and glance around at the other gym members … don’t even buy this. It’s short, but intense; and it really, really does work! ~*~ Have a great weekend! |
I enjoy beating my total reps and weight loads too much to start walking backwards.
