I think sometimes I'm more excited about weigh-in days for my members than they are, even the ones who know their bodies have changed. This past week two Hulkies finished their month long training and are now getting ready to start the new university school year. They tried to get out of their initial weigh-in on their first day but I convinced them to do it as did I also convince them to come in for their weigh-in upon finishing up their membership. I was super eager as to how they had changed this month and so I had them came in one day extra, just for weigh-in. I had asked them if they felt their body had changed and then asked what they had done differently, beyond training with me at Hulk's. I was specifically interested in their eating.
There was two of them and at the start it was just their body sizes that differed. They were best friends who trained together and then ate together. The biggest difference in their program however was the fact that Girl A (the smaller one) ate much less than Girl B after training -- she didn't eat the amount I had requested her to eat and was a borderline under-eater, if that's even such a word. She was so set in her ways, so convinced she knew what she had to do. The other girl however, Girl B, took my advice, digested it and applied it. She joked to me that I this past month I made her train less than she expected she'd be required to but also eat more than she expected.
Both stepped on the scale this week -- Girl A who's sole focus was training hard and Girl B who really focused on her clean eating -- and the results proved the very point I had told them from the start. You can't out train a bad diet!!! Girl A lost 1kg in body fat but also lost 2kgs of muscle, whereas Girl B lost 8cm off her waist, 5cm off her hips and, though her muscle gain was nothing particularly great, she did however experience an impressive drop of 3kgs in her body fat.
