End of week three and hospital news

First things first, My weight has dropped by 4lb and my body fat is at 14.5% but to be honest it's more about how I look and feel than the numbers on the scales, and I reckon I'm starting to look a whole lot better.. I certainly have much more definition in my arms, chest and shoulders which is definitely a good thing. The waist line is starting to shrink too, which is also a good thing.. I'm thinking the mygym, six second abs and sensible diet are a killer combination for attacking the fat.
I had my six weekly hospital appointment the other day and the news was quite promising. Most of the breaks are now starting to heal at an acceptable rate, the only break that's taking too long is a long break running up the length of the bone. Hopefully during this six week period I will be able to go from two crutches to one and eventually no crutches at all using only a plastic aircast boot.

Six Second Abs


Well it's been a busy week this week and I haven't really had the time to post anything, I have however still managed the time to drag out the old MyGym for my workouts, and it still feels great! I've also managed to find my six second abs machine so I'll be dusting that off this week and putting it to good use. Despite a busy schedule a bad diet and a night out on the lash I have remained at the same weight and body fat as the week before, not brilliant but not all doom and gloom.

End of Week Two

OK so that's the end of week 2 and despite the fact I have had 2 curry's and a pizza this week I've managed to drop 2% body fat so now I'm down to 15%. However I have gained 1 1/2 pounds, so by using the mygym and mixing up my training it would appear that I have gained 1 1/2 pounds of lean muscle... Happy days, more importantly I am feeling a lot fitter, healthier and much more motivated, to carry out normal every day tasks as well as the training. I'm also happier with what I'm seeing in the mirror, so not only are the figures on the scales more pleasing so is my appearance... All this with a broken leg!! I think if I'm getting results like this without proper cardio vascular training I will continue to incorporate this system into a more rigorous training routine once I'm back on my feet and fully recovered, it'll definitely be playing a massive part of my rehabilitation.

Start of second week

Thanks to watching what I've been eating and working hard on the exercises, I've managed to get myself to 13 st 11.5 pounds and 17% body fat. I'm pleased with this after only one week considering I'm unable to do any cardio vascular work due to my broken leg. I'm convinced anybody out there can get themselves into shape using inexpensive home gym equipment, whether they are simply out of shape, on the road to recovery from an injury, or just want to maintain or improve thier fitness without the hassles and expense of going to a gym.
