I used to worry about what the scale said. It used to send me into emotional turmoil or extreme fits of joy. Now I just think, who cares? I have the side and top lines of a six pack with my central muscles coming in. My arms have never looked so sleek.I don't look like I'm trying to turn myself into a professional body builder or anything, but even I'll admit I'm looking awesome.
I went on one of those body scales at my gym last month. It told me that of the 65 ish Kilos in my body 27.8 Kilos of that were muscle (with the normal range being between 21- 26 kilos for my age and height) while only 15 Kilos were fat. It ranked me at 23% body fat and I know I have less than that now.
So todays stand on this scale seems rather silly to me. If you are busting your butt, putting hard earned time into the kitchen, and giving every workout your all and you gain weight... you are gaining muscle.
Muscle weighs more than fat so take that ya stupid bathroom scale. I'm going to come back and hit ya harder next month!
