    so i have been meaning to set this log up fpr a few weeks but always get distracted reading other peoples:D

    i stopped the gym last summer ( i moved) but 7 weeks ago i joined again.

    at the moment i am in the middle of a 12 week programme where at the beginning all my stats were taken (see below) and in 4 weeks they will be taken again so see how much i have improved:eek:

    so 7 weeks ago............

    Female aged 24
    Height 168 cm
    Weight 70 kg (ideal 60kg-65kg)
    Waist 92 cm
    BMI 24.8
    Waist/Height ratio 0.55
    Bodyfat% 31 (target 20%-26%)
    Bloodpressure 125/62
    Heart rate 72
    Flexibility 6cm
    Dress size 14

    so most of those measurements are horrible but i am determined to change them.

    for my workout, i have split it into 5 days

    3 days weights

    Lat pull down 2 sets*20reps
    Shoulder press 2 sets*20reps
    Stab ball chest press 2 sets*20reps
    Seated row 2 sets*20 reps
    Leg extension 2 sets*20reps
    Leg press 2 sets*20 reps
    Standing tricep extension 2 sets*20reps
    Biceps pummelling 2 sets*20 reps


    2 days cardio (any 2 of the following)

    Xtrainer 25 minutes (level 10)
    Treadmill 25 minutes (2 mins at 6k, 1.5mins at 9k)
    Rower 25 minutes (5000m)

    Diet

    My trainer has given me some tips and I picked up some really good meal/snack tips reading here too:D

    I am trying for....
    breakfast (7am) porridge or poached egg and wholemeal toast

    mid-morning banana/apple

    lunch (1pm) baked potato with beans or chicken salad(no bread) and some seeds/nuts

    mid-afternoon nuts/seeds

    dinner (7pm) fish/chicken, baby potatoes, vegetables or something similiar (though i am trying to stay away from pasta)

    my workout time will vary depending on college and work but i will either try but morning 8am ish and 5pm ish

    i am also going to try some classes at the gym to vary my workout

    think thats it.....:)
