The transformation has begun! For those of you who haven’t been following the past week, let me catch you all up. My previous job stressed me so much that I couldn’t sleep and I hated working out. Preparing for my wedding left me little time. My honeymoon and lack of willpower left me an out of shape mess.

Excuses. We all have them and they all stink. I quickly realized this and decided to get my life back together a few weeks ago. However, instead of hiding it like I had in the past, I wanted to do something different this time and document my changes for everyone to see. My hope is that you realize that everyone has problems that cause them to get out of shape…even fitness trainers.

During the next few weeks, I will divulge everything to you…including my starting stats, some workouts, what I eat, my struggles, and tips to overcome those nasty SOB’s in the back of your head telling you to eat another Oreo Cakester. You see, I want to live in the majority of people’s shoes and feel the pain, but show you all how to overcome it.

So, here we go…I am throwing it all out there and showing it all. Here are my starting stats to let you keep track of my progress. I suggest you do the same to keep on top of where you are currently and how far you are from your goals.

Current Weight: 224
Waist: 38.5″
Hips: 45.25″ I think they call this a ghetto booty!
Abs: 39.75″
Thigh: 25.5″
B.F.: 19.5% As bad as this embarrasses me, it’s a must that I show you all so you understand how little it means right now and how important it will mean in a few weeks time when lower.

Stay tuned for a new post tomorrow!Greg Carbone, CSCS, CPT, YFS
