A Clients Fantastic Results!

I thought I would share the results one of my clients as he is having such fantastic results.

Ray is 52 years old, 5'8/176cm. He didn't have any history of exercise or attending the gym. He came to me on advice of his doctor as he was quite depressed and wanted to try exercise to improve his outlook and state of mind.

Here are his measurements-

As you can see when he started he weighed 12 stone/76.2 kilos. I didn't have my calipers at the time but I would have estimated his body fat to have been at least 25%.

In the first month of training his weight dropped from 12 stone/76.2 kilos to 11.13 stone/70.6 kilos. Again I didn't yet have calipers. His weight remained steady from July to August at 11.3 but I was not concerned as he was still visibly loosing body fat and increasing strength on his exercises. The measurements we did in August this time included the use of calipers. His body fat reading was 21.3%.

We measured again this week (October) and his body fat has now measured at 16.9%, but what is more dramatic than just his drop in body fat was his increase in muscle mass in the same period. He has lost 3 kilos in fat mass while gaining 6.2 kilo's in muscle.

I’m quite ashamed I didn't take photos from the start to track his progress as his transformation has been so dramatic. He always mentions that he can no longer fit in any of his clothes and his outlook on life has become a lot more positive and sunnier!

He is the perfect example of what results to expect when you train consistently and get your eating habits in order. Ray has been spot on with the eating plan I created for him from the start bar one KFC and this has contributed a massive part to his success. Well done and thank you Ray!
