I thought I would chart the progress of this fitness curve with observational science and here I am at 16 days since starting this thing with a dash up the Wrekin I thought I would blog my progress.
First off, everything is getting firmer. There isn’t any visible increase in muscle mass yet but I can tell that something is happening. I also feel fantastic, It seems that it is true exercise brings about a general feeling of wellbeing, it is difficult to explain but I just feel pretty good.
The exercises are becoming easier too. After about ten days I was no longer daunted by 15 minutes on the rowing machine. And half an hour doesn’t seem such a faraway target any more.
I weighed in on Sunday, after the gym but before I had eaten anything. I also had quite a lot of hair shaved off (in an attempt to become more hydrodynamic, and lighter). I was as light as I could be, and I weighed in at 68.8kgs and a BMI of 22.5. That is an increase of 3 grams. Now, I think it is too early to tell if that is 3 grams of new muscle or if I just needed a 3 gram wee. Only time will tell.
