Fitness Evaluation

On Friday Brian administered a fitness evaluation for me. The
results for eye-opening to say the least. The test was complete with an
assessment of cardiovascular fitness based on a bike VO2 max test. Several other test - push-ups, curl-ups(a variation on the sit-up), grip strength and back flexibility rounded out the test to measure all areas of fitness. I performed poorly in every category. Without going into details my overall fitness was rated a 34 on a 1 to 100 scale.

I weighed in at 229 and 29.8% bodyfat. Ok, I knew how much I weighed but when it came to bodyfat percentage, the truth hurt. Wow, I am fat. Oh well, the test didn’t make my fat, overeating made me fat. All the test did was quantify it for me. Now I know exactly where I am at and hopefully I will see dramatic improvements over the next 12 weeks.

After much internal debate I decided to post my before pictures, I have 12 weeks to get into shape so that I can post after pictures that I am proud of.
