Today's thought
So it’s been 3 months since I recruited @ivargereiko to help me undergo a body transformation. I met Ivar seven months ago at Steemfest 2 where he agreed to guide my body transformation and in February we had our first session.
It’s been 3 months and I’ve been training with Ivar twice, sometimes three times a week. However my sessions with Ivar have been part of the story. I’ve adopted a “no-days-off” mentality when it has come to training. I try to make sure I do something everyday, whether it’s kickboxing with @colossus39 or jogging or going to my local gym to do a workout.
Also a lot of the work for the transformation happens outside of the gym, primarily in the kitchen. Even though I haven’t strictly stuck to Ivar’s eating plan, I’ve been monitoring my calorie intake to ensure that I’m in a deficit.
I’ve lost around 20lb in three months. I’m well on my way to getting shredded however I appreciate the hard work really starts now. Each pound of fat lost will be harder to lose and each ounce of muscle harder to retain… but I’m looking forward to the challenge!
Three months ago…
