          Good stuff. Try to work each muscle group twice a week. Train 6 times a week for at least 1 hour. Stay away from machines. Use free weights.

            Perhaps those e-cigarettes can help you with the initial quit?

                I love free weights. I only use machines for a couple of leg sets.

                I'm starting with body weight and cardio to get some fitness and core strength back.

                A little sore this week so kinda used it as a warm up week lol

                  What do you use to measure body fat?

                    There is may ways. Not sure on accuracy. You can find info on the pinch test through google. Where your measure fat at curtain points of the body.
                    Scales only give a very ruff BF%. Picture chart - very inaccurate.

                      The calliper method is very inaccurate at best since it comes down to the user's technique, the site used each time and the time of day that the measurements are taken. All these factors will change the outcome.

                      Scales aren't very accurate either. Scales send an electric current through the feet and measure the resistance from one foot to the other to get a measurement. The problem with this is how electricity works - it will go from point to point. Therefore, it only travels from foot to foot, so, you'll get a reading based on your body fat % and water % from your feet, legs and hips. If you're predisposed to having fat (or having lean) legs, it won't give an accurate reading of your total figures.

                      The picture chart Karl is referring to is, I think, the DEXA scan - the most accurate measurement you can get and is probably the most expensive.

                        You have the pinch test measuring stuff at home Karl?

                        How's everyone 6 packs going? I've been going to the gym somewhat regularly now and it's good to see results!

                            I did the 4 point pinch test today (abs, hip, tricep, thigh). I referred a friend to Anytime and he was offered the first free PT session which I didn't do. So they offered it to me as well.


                            Any guesses?
