现在，不少11个星期到身体里为生活挑战我有认识。

最近汇集链接名单我很快补充说到这个站点做它更多用途对您，亲爱的读者，我体会多少个人声称他们丢失了x油脂磅，并且被获取的x精瘦的肌肉磅集合与如此这般节目。

他们怎么知道？

很好花费了某个时候考虑和产生答复的我，但，在我显露它对您之前我希望做入场。

事后的认识是一件美妙的事。

当我年初发射了这个站点我决定我想采取许多次测量一样可能，象我不知道哪个会显示最巨大的变动。

我也想能“映射”我的进展- (及时和在我的身体)的地方我做了最大(和最小的)获取和为什么。

因为您是无疑义明白我测量我的二头肌，大腿、胸口、胃和腰部和张贴规则相片-，虽然每周更新成为了较少对，有希望地，经常显示更加巨大的变动在他们之间。

我通常也称了自己并且报告关于失去的重量。

我主要地有发现我丢失了重量，并且减少我的腰部和胃的大小，我的胸口、胳膊和腿始终实际上停留了同样-有些阻挠。

哪些意味下个星期，当我完成第12个星期身体为生活时我放弃它，尝试有希望地将帮助我加强一些肌肉的另一个节目丢失重量。

然而，肌肉和油脂称不同的数额，因此我不知道，重量我丢失了，多少油脂我丢失了，并且多少肌肉我获取了。

我根本上有结果-，但不是最准确部分。

如此我买有些轮尺测量% bodyfat，以便在现在和圣诞节之间您能持续观看变革(以很快这里将显露)的新的节目，但是有更加信息关于我达到的结果。

它是我从开始没有做着此这个身体为生活挑战的羞辱或我们会有一些更加有趣的结果。

无论如何…

这怎么我推测如何测量失去的油脂，并且精瘦的肌肉大量获取了…

首先，我们采取我们的重量。 这里假设它的100lb做我们的样品演算容易。 然后我们使用轮尺(最准确的方法)测量我们的百分比体脂肪。 Let’s call it 20% (which is the average for a man).

The next week we do the same calculations. Let’s say I still weigh 100lb, but my % bodyfat is now 18%.

How much fat did I lose, and how much muscle did I gain?

Easy…

The first week I had 20% body fat. 20% of 100lb is 20lb of fat (yuck!!!).

The second week I had 18% body fat. 18% of 100lb is 18lb of fat.

So I lost 2lb of body fat.

Here’s another calculation to further explain what I’ve worked out:

The first week I weight 100lb with 20% body fat again.

The second week I weigh 103lb with 19% body fat.

So… the first week I have 20lb of body fat again.

The second week I have 19% of 103lb = 19.57lb of body fat.

So I lost 0.43lb of body fat.

Assuming everything else is equal - my skeleton weighs the same, I did the measurements on an empty stomach etc. then the rest of the gain will be lean muscle mass.

So I gained 3.43lbs of muscle.

So now you know…
