I thought I would post an update on my progress; but instead I decided to post my entire progress history since I started doing Beachbody workouts. Once again, I think this is a testament to the combination of their great workouts, diet plans, and support system. If it weren’t for the support system I probably would have never made it here. The two plots you see in this post are my body weight history (left panel) and my body fat % (right panel). As you can see in my first 60 days I completed Insanity and had a drastic drop in both my weight and my body fat. Over the next 90 days, I did a hybrid program with P90X and Insanity and during this time I started using Shakeology. Through this time, I only lost a few pounds in weight; but my body fat continued to decrease. The same thing happened in the next 30 day series where I completed Asylum, didn’t lose much weight; but my body fat kept decreasing. Following this, I have been mixing P90X, Insanity, Asylum and running (training for half marathons). It is interesting because I started gaining a bit of weight; but my body fat continued to decrease. Which is good because this means that all the weight I gained was muscle mass and not fat.
How are you measuring % body fat?
I use calipers to measure body fat
