After a conversation yesterday, I thought I'd give you the "skinny" on using body weight as a measure of progress when trying to lose weight (body fat).
Firstly it's important to know exactly where the weight loss is coming from, if you are training hard, lifting weights regularly then, you may in fact see the scales moving upwards, DON'T PANIC! Increases in weight are common for people that are starting out with weights, but you can still be LOSING FAT.
I am a firm believer in using body composition over body weight as a measure, and am fortunate to own one of the most sophisticated tools to measure my clients progress a Bodymetrix Ultrasound.
I use it with my Personal Training clients and it really helps to show them, in a way that's easy to understand that they are losing Fat and gaining muscle, it uses the same principle as measuring with calipers but without that uncomfortable pinch, also has much more accurate and consistent readings.
As well as bodyfat measurement it has advanced features that produces 2D scans of the muscles so we can actually see the muscle growing too. So take the guesswork out of tracking your hard work, get in touch with me and book yourself a Bodymetrix scan, you'll be amazed, and at only £20 it's serious value for money.
Your appointment will last around 45 mins, you'll walk away knowing exactly how your hard work is going and it can be repeated every 6-8 weeks to keep track of things, doesn't that sound like a better way of tracking your progress than just weighing yourself?
