Gym go’ers should not obsess with the weight scale or how much bodyfat % you have…

I haven’t posted a fitness topic in a while, so I thought I would come up with something. People who go to the gym on a weekly basis shouldn’t obsess with the weight scale or how much bodyfat % you have. To me, I don’t care about either of these things. I don’t have a goal that I want to get lower bodyfat. I’m fine just the way I am. I don’t want to get lower than 10%, because honestly, I think people who  go lower than 10% or 8%, is just disgusting looking anyway. Having bodyfat that low, makes you look like a starving person. You don’t really need to be that lean. When you want to be in a fitness competition, it’s understandable to be that low, but when you’re living in the real world, you don’t need to.

I used to obsess with the weight scale and the bodyfat %, but I don’t care anymore. I already have a good enough visible six pack. You’ve seen the photos yourself. So, I’m proud of the way I look. I don’t need to go any lower or lose anymore weight.

This is why I have cheat meal weekends as a way to help keep it the way it is. If you want a six pack to prepare for the summer, wasting time dong ab crunches is not going pull it. Good eating most of the week and plenty of cardio is key to getting that sexy washboard everyone wants. If I can do it, anybody can.

Yes, I’m still doing the fitness/bodybuilding thing. Keep it going all year long, all year round, although I did have one week off of it this Winter which was last week. Now I’m back into my routine. I’ve been experimenting with the light lifting/more reps thing and that’s awesome too.

Back to the weight scale and bodyfat %, it’s not really all that important to know in life. I haven’t really checked my bodyfat % in a long while, and don’t think I’m going to. You don’t need to know that you’re losing weight by stepping on the scale everyday. You’ll know it when your pants start to fall down, or when your abs start actually showing.
