The day of defeat and re-motivation!

To Day started off like any other except instead of going to the gym at 6:30 am as has become the norm, I had a to be at the University of Alabama R.E.C. center for a quick dip in the bod-pod. For those of you who don't know what that is, its a small casket like machine that was created by the Devil in the abysis, the darkest place in hell. It measures lean Muscle Mass and body fat, I am a rather large guy, I wasn't hoping for 10%, or even 25%, cause in my mind I knew better. I was kinda familiar with the process, and how the number came to be, I was shooting for 30's cause no longer than I been back dedicated at the gym, I thought thats where I would be. If you ask me I would have said, between 32% to maybe 38%, cause I got some good muscle, my chest and shoulders are huge, my arms and legs are lean, but to my surprise it was in the 40's for a brief few minutes, I couldn't think but what the FUCK, I only eat bad one or two meals a week, I workout in the morning for almost an hour and a half then I come back and do cardio, for 30 minutes in the evening, how is this possible?

It was like getting hit in the face with a board, but then I really start looking at myself in the mirror and I have lost 45 pounds but I still look like a smaller version of myself, the actual compisition of my body probably hasn't change a whole hell of alot. So its back to the drawing board, time to start a fresh new workout, actually write down my calorictic intake and keep up with measurements, the brain work if you will. Evidently eating a ton of protein, drinking lots of water, and working out like an insane person isn't exactly the most proficient way of making it to my goals, so I guess in essence the morning wasn't a total loss, I now know that what I was doing wasn't working. I guess it's better to find out two and half months in as opposed to continuing to do the same things that weren't working.

So I guess all I can really say is, if you think you are in shape, you think you got your diet and workout plan just where you want it, go get in the bod-pod, it was definately an eye opening experience.
