Ive been bodyfat testing monthly this year ...
Positives:
I know exact how how much lean mass I've gained and bodyfat I've lost.
Negatives: Same as above due to if progressive made is less than what is perceived it should be ...
Past month my protein intake increased by 20% (tracked daily by MyFitnessPal) steps averaged slightly over 10k step ... 24 - 1 hour 15 minute workouts ... with increased workout intensity tracked in my daily log ... with rest intervals increased to 3 minutes per set ...
Results yielded = shit ... lost 2 pounds of bodyfat from 203 to 201 ... lean mass virually unchanged ... bodyfat still over 20% ... reduced from 21.5% to 20.6% ...
I'll be honest ... I'm very disappointed ... and I ve been at this a workout thing for over 10 years so I know better ... but fuck seriously it should have been in the teens for bf% FFS ...
I'm still a big believer in tracking everything ... this post is about managing expectations and admitting I failed to manage mine properly over this month ...
I'll be getting back on the saddle tomorrow making a few adjustments and increading my efforts ...
How do you track your progress ... ?
