Measurements #2

Hello Everyone,

I thought it’s about time I do my second set of measurements. I find that by using this method, measuring with a tape-measure, it is more accurate in identifying my progress than merely being weighed on the scales.

By using this method I have found that one quad muscle seems to be larger than the other. This isn’t noticeable to the eye, but it is extremely important for muscles to be balanced on both sides of the body.

By using corrective weights methods you can rectify any in balances you find during measurement. I hope that next month I can show you some results in regards to balancing my muscles out. I will be using the leg press/squats machine in specific repetitions which I hope will get my quads to an equal level.


Measurements:

Weight 102kgs/ 224lbs
Left side: Right Side
16 1/4" Biceps 16 1/4"
13" Forearms 13"
24.5" Thighs 25"
17.6" Calves 18"
43" Chest
37" Waist

I also want to work on defining my triceps/biceps and strengthen my core. In addition to weights, running and boxing I have decided to try my hand at yoga. The class I went to was heated to 38 Degrees Celsius (Roasting) and lasted for 90 minutes. It was intense. Afterwards I felt very dehydrated so I’m not sure if I will return to that class, but I will definitely look to continue with Yoga somewhere else.

Thanks for your time.

Cheers,
Joe
