November update & schd

2009-11-04T08:47:00.000-08:00

Long time no update...but I was down to 142 lbs on Monday, lost some size, should get my BF% stats done again soon so I know where I'm at.
Sure isn't the exercise that is doing it, maybe just eating less!
*My iBook is in the shop...still!

I have had more than a few cancellations due to cold and flu bugs. I don't want clients or myself getting sick or coming in if there is indication of something coming. I will still have to charge for last minute cancels though, just as I will give you one if I have to leave.
Last week I had 16/36 clients train, ouch!
**Please wash all equipment & grips before and after you use it

Answers to your questions

2009-09-10T16:58:00.000-07:00

- What would the 10 minute app't with Angie be for? Will she be checking our BF%, etc?
Angie will be able to measure, weigh, & do a body fat test in 15 mins or less!

- How long will the app't with you be? Will just measurements be taken?
If you can have an apt with Angie, you will only need to send me or blog-post your results

Last weekend of debauchery!

2009-09-10T13:00:00.000-07:00

Going into the weekend at 147 lbs. My weigh in will be Monday; if you have a session with me, you can weigh in at that time.
Have a great sunny weekend! Don't drink TOO much at BeerFest!

Miss T's 12 Week Fitness Challange! Fat Free Fall

2009-09-02T20:41:00.000-07:00

Lookin' Good, Feelin' Better!
Challenge me! Challenge yourself! Do it in 12 weeks!

I mentioned to a client @ Club Phoenix that I was going to put myself on a meal plan & kick my own ass all over the gym after Labour Day; she wanted to know if I would share my "plan" with her. Of course I will! With all of you!

I moved from Vancouver, back to Victoria Feb 2006, stressed out, hardly working, broke & spending lots of distraction time at the gym...at 127 lbs, 12% body fat! A little too ripped for me (well, for my friends anyway).
I started back at Club Phoenix full time Feb 2007, 140 lbs, 122lbs of lean muscle mass, 18% BF (very reasonable for me).
I broke last weekend after seeing pictures of myself on the beach! I tipped the scales Sunday at 150.5 lbs!!! Argh! I have put the plan into action!
*Wed Sept 2, 148 lbs*
I will have my BF tested with all those who will enter, by the end of next week.
We are going to look at a loss of BF%, not total weight loss.
