Crankin - just curious how tall you are?

I am just trying to decide what a real target weight for me should be. I've recently changed clubs and had a bod-pod (free) eval last week and found out that 33% of my weight is fat That isn't considered obese, but it isn't ideal. I know my diet is pretty good, I mean, I reversed diabetes 2 with diet and exercise. I also get a lot of exercise.

So, on March 16 I am getting a full 1-hour long resting metabolism test, and will then take all of that information to the sports dietitian at my club for a talk. Thankfully the new club is part of a large university fitness research facility so I am pretty confident that these people are qualified. With my age and lack of thyroid or a reproductive system it seems good to talk with someone qualified about my diet. Perhaps I am not getting enough calories...with a target of 1300 I doubt that I am getting too many.

While it is true that I exercise a great deal, and have worked with a trainer for the past 2.5 years, my workouts haven't changed all that much over the last two years - outside of weight and intensity. My exercises have all come from the same "menu" of choices, and I suspect my body is just plain used to it.

The group training at my club that is part of the body-fat loss challenge is already mixing things up. They focus on high intensity exercises that utilize as many large muscle groups at the same time with the goal of boosting our metabolism. Since we started last week I've lost 1 pound...hmmmm

Perhaps my body just got bored? No matter, riding season is just around the corner
