President's Fitness Test

6 Weeks ago I took a 6 week challenge at TruFitness in Roseville. The challenge was to do at least 30 classes in 6 weeks. I finished 90!!!!! I am proud of my hard work and commitment to change. The gym let us do a InBody fat/water/lean body mass test before and after. Bummer that the test was a little uncalibrated today at the end of week 6, but hopefully they will have it fixed by next Saturday so I can see my lean body mass gains!

I did take the President's Fitness Challenge before and after and here are the changes :)

Before:

1.5 mile run  ~ 11 min 12 sec

Half Sit-Ups  ~ 68 (In one min)

Push Ups  ~ 32 (As many as you can w/o stopping on your knees)

Sit and Reach   ~  22 inches

After:

1.5 mile run ~ 10 min 14 sec

Half Sit-Ups ~ 84 (In one min)

Push Ups ~ 50 (As many as you can w/o stopping on your knees)

Sit and Reach ~ 22 inches

I feel good about my improvements. My sit and reach didn't change much but its hard to stretch first thing in the morning without a warm up :)

I do also wish the standard for women wasn't knee push-ups. I would have liked to see my change in full ones. Still a change though so I am still happy :)

I plan to do another 6 week challenge after this little weekend getaway to Vegas with the girls to round out a good 12 weeks!!!

I hope to lean out a little by adding more lean body mass and maybe becoming more flexible with more yoga in my life. I always hate doing yoga but I love how I feel after. So worth it :)
