I feel like a proud father. After 12 weeks, the Results Only crew wrapped up the first ever Catalyst Coaching Transformation and all in the entire group did amazingly well. There were some participants who far exceeded any of their personal or my expectations and there are some clients who know that they could have done better if they had been a little more diligent.
The good news is that everyone lost body fat and achieved strength gains. Along the way, they increased muscle mass and lost over all weight too. Out of the “Test Twelve” participants there was over 125 lbs of body fat lost. Some of the participants knew going in that their personal goals would take longer than 12 weeks to achieve their goal safely, so after a week off they will begin another couple of weeks of focused nutrition, training, and supplementation.
On the strength tests we tested push ups, crunches, and modified pull ups. Almost every person tested doubled their numbers in every category. It was great to see the anxiety in their eyes prior to the test. When I first administered the test I did not tell them there would be a follow up. The result was that each and every person gave it their best shot the first go around. There was no chance to skew the numbers. As we went to do the follow up test many were nervous that they had done too well the first time around so they thought it might be difficult do better this time. To have 90% of the testers double their results was a testament to how hard they worked over the past 12 weeks.
It has been a fun and gratifying experience to watch my clients literally shrink before my eyes. Especially since the majority of them were women, 40+, with children and in need of a goal. I am so proud to have been a part of this experience.
This week is also particularly exciting for me as my golf team heads into the National Finals as a serious contender. These 6 young men have worked hard all year and I believe it is their chance to shine on a national stage. Golf can be so fickle and I believe these players have grown stronger both physically and mentally and I can’t wait to see the results at the end of the week. I will keep you posted.
Finally, the temperatures have begun to hit the 100 degree mark here in Arizona. I know it is warming up around the country as well, so I thought it would be appropriate to write an article on water consumption this week. Most people don’t drink enough on a regular basis. Now that I know you are reading my info regularly, I also know you are working out regularly. You wouldn’t just read my articles without taking my advice would you? Therefore, you will need to make some adjustments to your own personal drinking habits.
Remember Better Bodies = Better Results,
Bobby
