Geez, I wonder who's going to win this match… I'm guessing the CF'er in blue.
Week two of the Paleo Challenge is coming to a close. How do you feel? Do you notice and positive physical changes? What about your performance, has it improved? Bring your logbooks in for inspection (i.e. another pair of eyes to find room for improvement).
We tend to keep people off the scale unless it's been a few months and curiosity gets the best of us. Why? Well, a couple of reasons stick out. First, we're not in the business of making people into stick figures. We'd like to see you at your best, which in our eyes means lots of lean muscle mass and happy. If we chase numbers, let's chase the one's that are important – our benchmarks for performance.
You see, weight means very little to us. When an athlete comes in and says "I'd like to lose 10 lbs", we generally laugh it off and say something like "no problem". We know that once you start to build some lean body mass, your body fat will get burned up as fuel. However, your body weight might not go down… uh… that's right – it might even go up! But as your lean body mass eats that fat for fuel, eventually you'll see those numbers go down.
For now, ask yourself: do I look better, do I feel better, do I perform better? Eff the scale.
