Precision Nutrition Test Run & Success

These results not typical! Not for me, anyway- this is so cool!

Well, while I waited to receive my Precision Nutrition Package, I eagerly gleaned what I could from the website and forums and tried to approximate the system as best I could. I only had to do that for 2 days and my Binder and Cookbook arrived. I was so excited…I had already gotten set up on the results tracker, done all my body fat pinches and girth measurements and logged them- I was ready to go.

I’ve already talked about this part, so I won’t repeat myself about actually reading the books and getting started properly.

The system calls for re-evaluation every two weeks. This evaluation could be as rudimentary as asking yourself if you are getting the results you had hoped for. If the answer is yes, carry on. If no, change something- but just one thing, so you can control your experiment.

2 weeks  was up on Saturday. I was so excited to remeasure because I had actually seen and felt a difference since I had started. The results are amazing- in 14 days I lost 3.4 lbs of fat and gained 1.4 lbs of muscle.

I have never been able to separate those two changes- I have always either lost or gained both at the same time- more muscle+more fat or less muscle+less fat. Just the fact that I had broken the link between them was more than I had expected, but I gained muscle at a very good rate and lost fat at an excellent rate. I love it when a plan comes together.

Some of you may have noticed that my food log has been idle. This is because Precisoin Nutrition does not require calorie counting. Ha! That is so great. I may start counting again to see if I can optimize the results further, but as long as I know that I can just follow the plan and get really good results, I’m going to have a hard time convincing myself to spend the extra time to log everything.

All in all, a very good 14 days. Hopefully it will continue like this until i’m lean and 215lbs. It’ll be a while, but I won’t have to explain how “i’m bulking” all the time to everyone who sees me without a shirt. It is summertime, after all.
