DAY 80 OF 365: THE WEIGH IN AND MARK TEST

So today JC had me do a mark test to see how I have progressed the last 3 months since I started this challenge. He had me do a series of exercises and marked down the results while timing me. But first I had the weigh in. Now when I began this challenge I weighed approximately 180lbs. This morning, I weighed 161lbs. That’s right; I lost 19lbs. That’s not accounting for all the muscle that I have built. The mark test included doing as many crunches as I could in 2 minutes, doing chin ups with no weight assistance. I did two! Now for me two chin ups with no weight assistance is a huge accomplishment. Remember, I had no upper body strength when we started. I also had to run a mile and a half and had to bench press 90lbs. I also had to double hop in a certain distance with only 5 hops. Well, JC was very impressed and by the end of the hour I was ready to pass out on the floor. It was the best feeling to know that I have lost 19lbs in three months. JC was also impressed and says that now we need to start toning the body up. Well the rest of the day was spent at work casting extras for Law and Order: Special Victims Unit, The Big C and The CBS pilot that I am working on called The Rememberer. Before I knew it, it was 10:30pm and time to head home. So here I am typing away and preparing to go to bed. Tomorrow I have a morning production meeting and another busy day. Thank god the weekend is almost here. Till tomorrow.
