My body transformation so far...

Loooking back at my transformation, I'm surprised I got so far without any slimming program or expensive diet pills within 6 months.

I think its about time I start bulking and gain some muscles. At the same time, i should also shed little bit on flab left around the midsection and bring out the hidden six packs!!! For that I have to bring down my BF% down to 15% or less. Wish me luck.

We'll see new ME in another 6 months time.

Inspiration for body builders out there

The video speaks for itself. How one can achieve his dream body with constant effort and dedication.






To quote from the source
"...It took Aamir 13 months of workout, with a daily regime of about four hours, to achieve the next to impossible look for 'Ghajini'.

Aamir Khan used to get tired exercising and sometimes even used to shriek in pain and cry doing the stomach crunches, but he did not skip a single day. Every week his body used to show results and that kept him going..."

My home gym

Like I wrote in my previous post, my Body solid G1S home gym was delivered on wednesday. With that my home gymnasium collection is almost complete.

Why do I say its almost complete? Actually, the equipments I have is sufficient to train all the major muscle groups for a novice body builder. But, what my father feels that it should have a treadmill to be complete....Hmmm, why would I wanna spoil his wish?

Well, now I'm on a hunt for treadmill. The good news is he'll fund for the treadmill and also some minor renovation of my gymnasium (actually I used up the store room space for my gym =) ).

Enough said. Now, let together admire my home gym collection.

Behold!!! My new Body solid G1S home gym

...And occasionally some outdoor activities =)

Ooops, I almost forgot. Merry christmas and Happy new year to all my friends.

How fit are you?

I have been planning to purchase a gym equipment for a long time. So, as soon as I got my bonus for this year, I paid a visit to Fitness Concept store in IOI mall.

The equipment of my choice was Body solid's G1S dual station gym. It cost me a whopping RM 3,000.00 and I shall write a review about it after its delivered on wednesday.

I also had my fitness level measured today by body composition analyzer. Below is the reproduction of the report i received.

BODY TYPE : STANDARD
GENDER : MALE
AGE : 24
HEIGHT : 170 cm
WEIGHT : 72.1 kg
BMI : 24.9
BMR : 6733 kJ (1609 kcal)
IMPEDANCE : 474 ohm
FAT% : 24.9%
FAT MASS : 18.0 kg
FFM : 54.1 kg
TBW : 39.6 kg

DESIRABLE RANGE
FAT% : 14 - 20%
FAT MASS : 8.8 - 13.5 kg

TARGET BF% is : 20%
PREDICTED WEIGHT : 67.7 kg
PREDICTED FAT MASS : 13.6 kg
FAT TO LOSE : 4.4 kg

So, despite all the workout I've been doing for the past few months I'm still a little overweight it seems. But, I was also informed that once we start building mass (body building) BMI cannot be applied anymore.

I have already made my new year's resolution. How about you? How fit are you?
