Daily Motivation Bite: Give your scale to your enemy

January 26th, 2012 Posted in Lose Fat, Play More

Hey friend-

Happy Thursday!

As I walk by the front desk of my gym, I can
see the doctor scale over to my right, carefully
placed where all members pass to get to the weight room.

I do measure my scale weight, maybe every 4
weeks. Even once a week is fine but don't let the scale
number  be your choice assessment of training progress.

It can be discouraging.
You don't want to get discouraged do you?
You see, you're scale weight may not change much
and you can actually gain scale weight and still lose inches.
Get your scale and donate to GoodWill, throw it away or give to your enemy.

You want to be able to track ways to see changes
on your body. Use body fat percent vs your lean body mass.

You can look at changes with measurements, clothes fitting or even
just the mirror. You can even measure changes in the weight you lift (strength gains).

Be better,

Adriel
