Done working out...

Done with last month's challenge

Well not really DONE forever ya know. Hopefully now I do it forever. Sadly it means I have to learn more about working out later on... there's so many complicated things as you get better. What endless nonsense... Can't anything in life be even remotely simple? Jeez. Oh well at least I did alright this month. Ate my proteins, walked around a little... biked... tried running and destroyed my legs... Had to drive 4000km with my dad. Yeah that never helps doing cardio.

Lookit what I got this month:

So now it means I can calculate my body fat % using this handy calculator! Then add it back to ye olde graph:

It does have the downside that it's not very accurate for each measurment and goes into increments of 1%, which turns out is a lot. But over time you should be able to see trends. Yep. I also got myself a digital bathroom scale since my old scale was one of those shitty-ass mechanical ones with a wheel that you have to adjust yourself every day. It gives crappy measurements that vary by 2-3 pounds sometimes. Awful. The digital one gives you accurate measures up to one decimal place! Woohoo.

And now, pics:

Keep in mind that the first one was taken in the bathroom and the second one, in my bedroom. I decided to move there so I could take more consistant images by marking my floor and camera placement with tape and using a wonderful tool known as a SHELF to put my camera on. Holding a camera by hand is retarded.

Unfortunately it means you can't really fairly see the difference between the two. Yeah it does look like I am thinner / stronger in the more recent picture but it may just be a trick of the light, even though my graph basically says I gained 0.8 pounds of muscle but remained about the body fat. That seems unrealistic and could you really be able to tell from that little gain?

This was always meant to be a long-term deal as I keep taking a picture each day and keep working out from month to month and year to year. Now I'm taking a little break until I get started on May's Challenge. My feet are all fucked up from walking around in fancy shoes for Pico Day 2011. See you in a week...
