So the results are in from my first week of Metabolic Surge and they are astounding to me. I will contrast the results this week to both my goals and my previous numbers from last week:
| Item | Measurement |
| Current Weight (lbs) | 227 |
| Previous Weight (lbs) | 232 |
| Goal Weight (lbs) | 231 |
| Variance to previous (lbs) | -5 |
| Variance to goal (lbs) | -4 |
| Current Body Fat % | 16.0% |
| Previous Body Fat % | 17.0% |
| Goal Body Fat % | 17.0% |
| Variance to previous | -1.0% |
| Variance to goal | -1.0% |
| Current LBM (lbs) | 190.68 |
| Previous LBM (lbs) | 192.56 |
| Goal LBM (lbs) | 191.73 |
| Variance to previous (lbs) | -1.88 |
| Variance to goal (lbs) | -1.05 |
I did lose some lean body mass, but I'm not extremely concerned. This first week of Metabolic Surge was all about burning fat and that clearly worked. I dropped 5 pounds overall and 1% body fat. This week begins more of the muscle building phase and I am sure I am going to pack on some muscle the next few weeks. Today begins the protein, glutamine and creatine loading phase of the Metabolic Surge program and it talks specifically about packing on muscle. I am well on my way to all my goals except lean body mass and I knew that would be a stretch while shredding fat.
Stay tuned for next week's measurements.
I am off to lift!
Until later…
