Popsugar Fitness Then And Now Body Composition Transformations These Women Changed Their Body Composition and Look Leaner, but Actually Gained Weight! January 25, 2019 by Jenny Sugar View On One Page Photo 6 of 15 ADVERTISEMENT () Start Slideshow View this post on Instagram THE SCALE - great for measuring weight gain or loss. However, it is not the end all be all. The number on the scale does not account for fat loss/muscle gain like progress 📸 do. Here are a few of my physique pics/scale weight from the beginning to now! - - 1️⃣ LEFT PIC (1/7/2017) This pic was taken towards the beginning of my lifting journey. I wasn’t sure what to do in the gym & found myself slightly intimidated by machines/weights. At this point, I was doing what I felt comfortable with. I was also unsure about what & how much I should be eating. - 2️⃣ MIDDLE PIC (9/16/2017) : At this point in my lifting journey I was incorporating compound lifts & feeling much more comfortable at the gym. Lifting weights became my “thing”. I was doing cardio for about 2 hours every week & was tracking my macros (1,600 cals. - maintenance was the goal) - 3️⃣ RIGHT PIC (5/19/2018) : Now I’m lifting heavier than ever & really starting to understand how I need to train my body for my goals after completing a bulk. I’m now doing HIIT cardio for 20-30 minutes a week & tracking my macros (2,000 cals. - Deficit to lose extra body fat) - - Trust the process & NEVER give up! - - - - - - - #physiquetransformations #transformationtuesday #physique #physiqueupdate #gains #screwthescale #mytransformation #transformationpic #selfie #myjourney #weightliftinggirl #weightlifting #musclewomen #musclesaresexy #fitchicklife #healthylifestyle #progress #nevergiveup #cantstopwontstop #mevsme #musclegain #fatloss #selflove #bodylove #bodybuilding A post shared by Thalia Kolster (@thalia_kolster) on May 22, 2018 at 9:51am PDT Share This Link Copy ← Use Arrow Keys → 6 "The number on the scale does not account for fat loss/muscle gain like progress 📸 do."
