You should start a journal TA girl.

What gym do you train at in T.A?

[TA-girl]

hi mark65,

i go to zero limits in Te Awamutu, i had a fat test on mon im 39% fat and 86.7 kg so i have alot to lose. Tony my trainer asked me to have a fat test every two weeks to help me say on track. I have been reading your journal, it looks like you have done very well :clap: are you going to do a show.

[marky65]

Thanks, I have come a long way to.

Funnily enough I go there to and Tony is my trainer to. Listen to what he says....it might seem hard but it does work.

I do intend to do a competition in the future though :nod:

[TA-girl]

i have known Tony for a long time now,

i got to know him at Bruces Fitness when he worked there,

he is a very good trainer he keeps up with the lasted training ideas. So What time of the day to you train.

may be one day we will run into each other.

Train Hard eat well and it wont be long before your in a show. :nod:

Hello, good luck with your goals.

I wouldnt worry too much about fat% and all that technical stuff. Get use to the gym and how your workouts feel and how your body responds every couple of days. Feel good about the change your making and always take the positive road when it comes to motivating yourself and GOOD LUCK
