Starting my own IsaBody Transformation

6 weeks ago I signed up to start my transformation with the IsaBody Challenge (again). I have had a great start, but this time I’ve a step further and a few days ago Xscan Body Scan done to see where I was at, but also to compare to when I finish in 10 weeks.

Thanks to Tony from xcellpt.com.au for his great special price on the scan.

There is a heap of information on there, and the full sheet of explanations to go with it, but the important parts are:

I’m a little over weight @87.8kg, “ideal” is 79.5kg for my height. No surprise there.

That 87.8kg is made up of 68.8kg of Lean Body Mass and 19kg of Total Body Fat (should be 11.9-15.9)

My Percentage Body Fat is 21.6 (down from 24.5 on a cheaper set of scales during week 1) 10-20% is considered healthy.

This is where my big goal lies. Scales don’t tell the whole story. As I put on muscle, my weight will go up, but as I lose fat, my weight will go down, which is why I’m concentrating on Percentage Body Fat. My goal for this challenge is 15% with BHAG (Big Hairy Audacious Goal) of <10%

Another interesting stat is Visceral Fat Level (Fat around my organs) which is at level 11 with 1-9 considered healthy. Visceral Fat Area is 106cm², and should be 50-100cm².

My Age Match to body puts me at 43, which is my age, so it’s go to know my body is acting it’s age. 🙂

The scan was a wonderful learning experience, I can’t wait to post my final transformation results.
