Taking Time Off
Today I went back to Competitive Fitness after having not been since Friday - 4 days off doesn’t seem like much. Saturday I didn’t feel well, Sunday was my normal day off, Monday I was at the lake, and yesterday clients and time conspired to keep me at work instead of the gym.
Today kicked my ass.

Finding the Zone
For me, the past two weeks of the Fatt-Off have been a bit challenging, to say the least.
While I had lost 5.2 lbs the first two weeks, I really wanted to see myself go further, push harder and come out stronger the next two. I already eat a fairly healthy selection of food to begin with. I drink only water, tea and coffee out of preference and generally do not indulge in anything fast food ever....

Theoretically we’re all here to lose weight during the Fatoff. Realistically though we’re doing more than just losing
We’re losing weight but we are gaining muscle (hopefully)
We’re losing weight but we are gaining a better understanding of how to eat right
We’re losing some of our free time at the gym but we’re gaining some great friends and motivators
