SECA Scan 1

I've been debating on blogging about this. Because these can be very personal numbers, and usually I dont care too much but this is a little more deeper into your numbers.

And i've been a bit self conscious about them lately and even though these numbers might seem amazing to some, they were disappointing to me.

I join a team of 4 (we still need 1 more for our 4) for a fitness challenge called Zults War! I am SUPER excited for it! I've met some pretty awesome ladies at the gym and we've been taking some classes together. We all met while taking an ignite class with the awesome coach Michael who asked us if we wanted to join Zults War. We all said YES we are in!

It started yesterday on my 25th birthday! =] The first week we get a Seca Scan because the end results are based on how much percentage of fat you lost not just the weight on the scale. So we are aiming to make fat into muscle. Then based off our results we get a weekly meal plan each week for the next 5-6 weeks. (This part I will struggle with, my picky eater makes things difficult but I know part of my unhealthiness if because I dont eat well) But I'm ready for the change and will take 1 day at a time.

One quote I found that i'm going to be trying to read daily "Dont think about what can happen in a month. Dont think about what can happen in a year. Just focus on the 24 hours in front of you and do what you can to get closer to where you want to be." I sometimes look at the whole thing and get overwhelmed but if I just think about that day, it wont feel so hard.

I am going to post a few snap shots of my results and example what each number represents.


The number on the left ^ is how much fat I have pound wise and what it rounds out to percentage wise. The goal is to make those numbers less. 
I thought this was kind of cool. You want to be in the green range so i'm good there but the higher up I am, the better. So on the left is how much muscle I have in my whole body and the others are what areas have how much muscle. so i'm a little higher on my right sides because i'm right handed. I can see that i'm gaining more muscle. Even though this was my first Seca scan I know my muscle mass is A LOT better then it was 3 plus months ago. Now my torso area is VERY sad...its a work in progress. 


I also liked this, it tells you how much water is in your body. I was 80% which they say 80 or better is where you want to be. Score! I have been doing pretty good on my water the past month or so. 

I know me and the 2 girls I have on our team so far are going to do great at pushing each other but the first week or two might be pretty hard tell I get on a good schedule. I've fallen behind recently and i'm pretty disappointed in myself because I haven't felt fantastic lately. My goal is at the end of May we are going back to visit family and friends and I really want to be the best I've ever felt and looked. Being on vacation for 2 weeks is going to be hard in general to keep with my workouts but I am going to do my best to get out and do things. 

I will probably post weekly or so to keep you updated on my Zults War 6 week journey!

  1. Fitness challenges are so much fun! I'm doing a few on facebook, Fitbit and MyFitnessPal. They really do wonders at helping me stay motivated. I've set a goal of losing several pounds and lowering my body fat percentage by the end of the term. Normally I don't do so well, but this time I'm determined to do better. Good luck with your challenge. You're going to rock it!
