00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,580
Welcome to Nacho Fitness Coach.

2
00:00:02,580 --> 00:00:03,960
I'm Sarah, the expert.

3
00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:05,520
And I'm Kaylee, the beginner.

4
00:00:05,520 --> 00:00:10,040
Join us as we discuss fitness culture from our two very different perspectives.

5
00:00:10,040 --> 00:00:16,920
So grab yourself a protein shake or a glass of wine and let's get started.

6
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:19,720
So Kaylee, I think it's time.

7
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:21,800
Oh, wait.

8
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:26,000
I think it's time that we do your body composition.

9
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:27,800
Oh, we've talked about it.

10
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:29,160
Yeah, we've got it up.

11
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:30,640
Yeah, I think I brought my calipers.

12
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:31,640
Oh, OK.

13
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,560
Just going to grab that fat and just OK.

14
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:35,280
Let's measure it.

15
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:36,600
Let's just a little pinchy pinch.

16
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:37,040
All right.

17
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:38,960
And see where it's at.

18
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,400
We'll plug it into my little equation calculator thing, my little app.

19
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:45,520
I'm curious to see because I've been measuring it on my watch every Wednesday

20
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:48,600
morning, same time, same day of the week, every week.

21
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:49,400
But I don't.

22
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,240
Wait, your watch measures your body.

23
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:52,720
Come talk about this.

24
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,280
Well, I mean, we've talked about like the stress, the heart rate stuff.

25
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:56,400
Have we talked about that?

26
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:57,640
I think it was season one.

27
00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:59,360
I don't remember anything from season one.

28
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,280
I haven't slept in like 10 years.

29
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,880
So I have to like put my thought.

30
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:12,600
There's like these two little knobs or whatever buttons on each side of my watch

31
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:13,880
around one side of my watch.

32
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,280
OK, I have to put these two fingers on no other part.

33
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:18,640
There's little nubbies there.

34
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:22,160
Yeah, no other parts of my body can be touching like my like my armpits.

35
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:23,520
Well, you get your fingernails on.

36
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:25,040
So how's this going to work?

37
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:26,040
The fingernails don't matter.

38
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:26,800
It's the skin.

39
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:27,440
Oh, the skin.

40
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:29,920
OK, so you can't be like your hand can't touch.

41
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:32,040
Oh, gosh, you got to be like standing up.

42
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,760
OK, and then I don't honestly I don't super look at the numbers.

43
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:41,080
So you don't super look at what numbers the whatever measure, whatever measure.

44
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:44,920
Let me let me measure that before because earlier when we talked about,

45
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:48,240
you know, maybe this coming up in us doing this episode,

46
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,920
you referred to it as measuring your BMI.

47
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:52,240
Yeah, I don't know what that means.

48
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,040
And it sounded good.

49
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,400
And I was like, no, that's not.

50
00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,240
What we're going to do.

51
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:01,440
It's like, wait, what?

52
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:06,520
Which is a common I mean, if you don't body mass index, right?

53
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:12,040
Body mass index is different than measuring your body fat percentage.

54
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:16,240
OK, so this measured my well doesn't measure my weight, but I put my weight in.

55
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,640
OK, so Wednesday mornings, I weigh myself first.

56
00:02:18,640 --> 00:02:19,960
Wait, just Wednesday morning.

57
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,680
I do, because I feel like it's like the middle of the week.

58
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:24,280
I know. But you measured it.

59
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,640
You you were a daily scale wearer.

60
00:02:26,640 --> 00:02:28,480
I was you were.

61
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:32,840
And so this is past tense, like you've moved away from measuring yourself on a scale.

62
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:33,920
I don't know. I'm OK.

63
00:02:33,920 --> 00:02:35,720
Wednesday morning, I have an alarm set.

64
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:40,080
I'm really proud of my 32 because I wake up at 530 and you got to take the picture.

65
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:41,760
So then you got to take the picture.

66
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,680
And then five to my phone tells me because I'm generally like still in the bathroom.

67
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:47,320
Right. You know, yeah.

68
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:48,200
That's the best time to do it.

69
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,240
It's first thing in the morning when you wake up after you pee.

70
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:51,920
Take off my jam jams.

71
00:02:51,920 --> 00:02:55,880
OK. And you know, any any ponytail holders, earrings,

72
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,040
anything that could add any, you know, add a single ounce.

73
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:04,720
Just make sure your birthday suit take off nail polish, the whole thing.

74
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:09,000
The fake nails got to go pop them off once a week.

75
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:10,880
It's fine. So I put my weight in.

76
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:14,640
And so this measures skeletal muscle, which I do not know what that means.

77
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,680
OK. Fat mass.

78
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:18,440
OK. Body fat.

79
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:22,240
OK. Is that and that's yeah, that's body fat percentage.

80
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,840
So then it calculates out a percentage for you. Yes.

81
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,560
I thought it did more than that. But yeah, a lot.

82
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:33,000
OK, so I think I think we need I think we need to do this properly.

83
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,760
Well, I think well, and there's different ways that you can go about measuring

84
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:37,760
your body fat percentage.

85
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:41,360
And some of them are highly more accurate than others and blah, blah, blah.

86
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:46,280
But in my opinion, what's most important is you pick one thing that's a baseline

87
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,520
and then you are you track to that baseline.

88
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:54,200
Like it's not going to do you any good if you are measuring it on your app.

89
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,320
But then you get your body fat calipers tested.

90
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,160
But then you go to a store and they've got one of those electro,

91
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,760
you know, scales or whatever that they will measure through that.

92
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:06,520
And then, you know, you've got Bob pod testing and you can do so.

93
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:07,560
That'd be interesting.

94
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,640
It is really interesting because you could see, you know, there's some variability

95
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:11,600
in it, right.

96
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:16,000
But the most important part is just pick one that's easily accessible to you

97
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,840
that you can do then consistently for your benchmark.

98
00:04:18,840 --> 00:04:22,640
If this is something that you kind of want to track and watch and we can talk

99
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:26,520
about why I like doing it because what I have access to is my watch.

100
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:30,040
I don't there's no part of me that thinks like this is a super accurate,

101
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:34,480
but it is something that I have access to and I have the control over like doing it

102
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:39,240
the same time every week, the same controlled environment where it's not.

103
00:04:39,280 --> 00:04:40,960
Yes, which is really nearly all over the place.

104
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:42,720
Important part. So all right.

105
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,560
So here's what we're going to do then.

106
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,200
Hold on. Wait, oh, wait.

107
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,840
I want to tell you that in August of twenty twenty two. OK.

108
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:51,240
I did. I measured it.

109
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,840
I wasn't measuring it regularly then, but I must have.

110
00:04:53,840 --> 00:05:01,240
Oh, OK. Thirty eight point five percent is what it measured your body, body fat.

111
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,520
And now what's it.

112
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,040
So when was the last time then you measured it?

113
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:06,920
Was it just this last Wednesday? OK.

114
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,040
So which was what today's Sunday?

115
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,120
Is it? Yeah.

116
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:13,120
I don't know. Sure.

117
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,760
Thirty point nine. OK.

118
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:17,560
Down from thirty eight.

119
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,640
I would have to guess the calipers are going to be less than that.

120
00:05:21,280 --> 00:05:23,040
You don't know the ranges, though, do you?

121
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:24,560
What do you mean? Have you ever seen?

122
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,560
So there's a scale of body fat percentage ranges

123
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:32,600
that kind of basically put you in different categories.

124
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:37,800
And a lot of those that are tied to what your physique would look like

125
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,880
at that body percentage, you know, so you have like a healthy range,

126
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:45,720
for example, and then maybe online you've seen some of the like memes

127
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,360
floating around social media were like, this is what you would look like

128
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:49,920
if you're under 10 percent body fat.

129
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,400
Like, and usually it's like an ab shot. Yeah.

130
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:56,760
You know, it's like here's your your eight to 10 percent body fat range.

131
00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:01,000
Here's your 10 to 15 or here's about 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45 percent.

132
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:05,360
And you'll see, you know, torso's care, you know, pictures lined up

133
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,120
that will say, have you seen any one of those?

134
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:09,800
No, we're going to find one.

135
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:13,440
OK, because it's it's a lot of times people correlate

136
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,040
the body fat percentage to what you're out.

137
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,080
What you look would look like. Right. On the outside. Right.

138
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:23,080
But we're going to talk about the importance, too, of just understanding

139
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,760
what your body fat percentage is, what it really means,

140
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,680
how it's different than just knowing your scale weight. Right.

141
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:29,800
I think first things first.

142
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,360
Now you've got your one that you've consistently done.

143
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,840
You've got some history, but I brought my caliper.

144
00:06:34,840 --> 00:06:37,360
So I think what we're going to do is we're going to take a little break.

145
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,960
OK, let the listeners enjoy some elevator music.

146
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,760
OK, shoot some behind the scenes video of us actually measuring

147
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,400
your body fat percentage.

148
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,560
I'm game. And then we'll plug it in and we'll see how it's different

149
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,600
and we'll talk about it. OK, is that good?

150
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,400
OK, we'll be back.

151
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:57,960
So, Kaylee, we're back. All right.

152
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,640
I pinched at you a little bit. Done without all that.

153
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,200
Wasn't painful. No, just the closeness.

154
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,520
Well, yeah, I mean, I'm up in your business.

155
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:06,880
We've never been that close.

156
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,280
I don't think I've ever touched you before.

157
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:13,600
Like not even like a handshake or not.

158
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,040
I don't think so. That was it. So weird.

159
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,080
Not that you say it that way.

160
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,920
It's a very intimate experience.

161
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:28,080
You know, it was something that the gym that I was at,

162
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:29,440
it was common practice.

163
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:33,760
Yeah, how they baseline everything is so from my standpoint,

164
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,200
I got comfortable with it really quick because that was

165
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:39,480
it's data. It's not a negative or whatever.

166
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,240
It's just it is what it is.

167
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,560
It's data that you can start tracking. Right.

168
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,440
So it's like, I mean, I was not afraid to grab.

169
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:49,800
I'm not afraid to grab people, which is funny because I don't really like people

170
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:51,920
or to touch people. Either one.

171
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,000
You know, so it's like, OK, I don't.

172
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,760
Anyways, it is what it's like for like a, you know, like people who work

173
00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:00,280
in the medical field. It's a it's it's different when it's your job.

174
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:02,760
Yeah, it's not a person necessarily.

175
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,000
It's a task. Yeah. Yeah.

176
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,000
So there you go. Like just completing the task. Check the box.

177
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:10,240
I need the information for me right now, please.

178
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:11,560
So here we're just going to just do it.

179
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,840
So so we did a foresight body

180
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,440
caliper skin fold measurement.

181
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,280
OK. And we did your tricep.

182
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,560
We did your I can never say this right.

183
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,760
And somebody's going to just super really act.

184
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:28,720
I think it's right. It sounds good to me.

185
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:30,640
Like right above your hip bone.

186
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,800
Then your abdominal, which I do right next to like your belly button.

187
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,120
And then halfway up your thigh.

188
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,520
So and I did all the left side.

189
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,040
And so what we're going to do now is I've got a calculator pulled up.

190
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:45,320
We're going to go through and plug them all in and we're going to see where you're at.

191
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,640
So your age is 36.

192
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:49,920
What happened? Stop it.

193
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,280
37. OK.

194
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:58,080
And your most recent weight was 139, 139, even no point six.

195
00:08:58,120 --> 00:08:59,680
I don't know if you wanted to get specific.

196
00:08:59,680 --> 00:09:00,760
I do want to be specific.

197
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,240
OK, so then I feel like there used to be.

198
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:04,880
Where am I missing the height?

199
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:06,760
I guess I don't have to do that in here.

200
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:08,360
Weight, age.

201
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:10,200
Well, how tall are you again, by the way?

202
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:11,480
Five, seven, five, seven. OK.

203
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,720
I'm five, nine ish five, ten.

204
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:15,040
I feel like I'm shrinking.

205
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,360
I'm not like I'm like five, seven on a good day.

206
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:18,440
I've measured at five, six.

207
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:23,040
I also feel like in high school for basketball rosters or sports rosters.

208
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,360
You put your shoes on, you stand on your toes.

209
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:26,720
And I was like five, 11.

210
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:28,760
We do shrink as we age.

211
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,320
I know, but I don't think that much.

212
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:32,400
Do you?

213
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:34,360
Well, maybe I guess I did used to be OK.

214
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:35,640
So anyways, we did.

215
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:37,960
So this is the fat caliper test.

216
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:42,080
I'm using the Jackson Pollock for caliper method,

217
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,880
which is the formula based on the equation.

218
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,800
Who? Jackson Pollock?

219
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,040
Yeah, I don't know.

220
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,600
Did he cross over and do body fat percentages?

221
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,480
Hold on. So that's what we're using.

222
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,040
That's an American painter.

223
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,640
What? Well, it's the Jackson slash Pollock.

224
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:04,440
It's not just those two people that came up with this formula.

225
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,680
So, oh, yeah, there's a famous painter named Jackson Pollock.

226
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:14,840
OK, so the website I've always used is linear dash software dot com.

227
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:19,400
OK. And so not underscore that like dash linear

228
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,840
dash software dot com.

229
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,960
You pull it up and then there's a bunch of different ones in here.

230
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,600
So for your your measurements,

231
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:31,200
we've got your abdominal measurement was at 22 millimeters.

232
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:35,880
Your thighs were 33 on your left thigh.

233
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,640
They don't call them thunder thighs for nothing.

234
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:46,160
Tricep was 17 millimeters and your ciprileac was 12.

235
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:49,920
OK, so that was so we had that little fun little pincher guy

236
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,360
and you pulled your skin out with your fat.

237
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,520
So trying to muscle.

238
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,760
So like, you know, that's what you can pull on.

239
00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,720
I mean, because you can see, like if you just grab your leg right now,

240
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,680
I mean, you can kind of grab at your skin and your fat, right?

241
00:11:03,680 --> 00:11:06,640
Feel it pull away from your muscle.

242
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,040
And so that's what you're trying to grab at.

243
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:13,240
And depending on your skin tightness, I mean, sometimes it's hard

244
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,480
to get for people if they got really tight skin and then it just kind of depends.

245
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,920
But that's the goal is if you grab it like halfway up your leg

246
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:23,000
and you can kind of grab and pinch that skin in your fat.

247
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,120
Yeah, we're measuring that. So. OK.

248
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:29,040
And like you were helping me do my tricep because it's hard for me to see.

249
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,880
And I could feel the times where you're grabbing my muscle

250
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,720
versus if you grab the back of your arm, you can feel yourself kind of pinch away.

251
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:38,440
And you're like, oh, now I just pop past my muscle.

252
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,960
And then you can feel like that little extra, right, extra spot there.

253
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:43,640
So, OK, so now we're going to calculate.

254
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:44,840
And there's this little button here.

255
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:48,560
And so this is coming up and it's telling us what your body fact percentage is.

256
00:11:48,560 --> 00:11:50,200
So this is your body composition.

257
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:51,960
What was it again that you said you're?

258
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:56,280
Watch told you reading your fingers, right?

259
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:57,720
Just get back into it.

260
00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:01,360
I some sort of electromagnetic signal that was going through

261
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,120
and looping through your body somehow.

262
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,840
Are you asking for my body fat? Yeah.

263
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,280
What did it say? That's what it gave you. Right.

264
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,200
And that app was your body fat percentage.

265
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,760
It's a 30 body fat percentage.

266
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:14,560
Oh, shoot. Hold on.

267
00:12:14,560 --> 00:12:17,400
I got to find my average is 30.6.

268
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,360
OK, according to all the measurements that I've taken. OK.

269
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,440
So what did I say about that?

270
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:23,640
I was like, I don't think that's right.

271
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:27,720
Yeah, it seems that seems high to me just by looking at you,

272
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,000
knowing your stature and all fun things. OK.

273
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:36,760
So what this calculates your body fat percentage out to be is 24.39 percent.

274
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:38,880
Oh, so there you go.

275
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:44,240
Now, what it also does then too, is it breaks out of your scale weight,

276
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,560
what it estimates your lean body weight to be,

277
00:12:47,560 --> 00:12:55,000
which your lean body weight would consist then of muscles, bones, organs, skin, that stuff.

278
00:12:55,000 --> 00:13:00,920
Your lean body weight is 105.55. OK.

279
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:07,640
Your pounds of body fat are 34.05. OK.

280
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:11,240
So the reason why that's always really important

281
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:15,080
and part of kind of consults with clients that I discuss is

282
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,440
once you can separate out those numbers,

283
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:21,680
you can see that there's power behind understanding them

284
00:13:21,680 --> 00:13:24,600
because scale weight doesn't give you the whole picture. Right.

285
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,960
Scale weight could be water. It's fluctuate. It varies.

286
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,680
With scale weight, all it is is how much gravity is pushing you down

287
00:13:31,680 --> 00:13:33,640
on this stupid little plate that's on the floor.

288
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,080
It really does nothing more than that.

289
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:39,920
Yeah. Understanding what these numbers mean, it gives you two things.

290
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:47,520
One, it tells you how much fat pounds really are probably going to be realistic for you to lose.

291
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:53,200
Yeah. I would say, and I think at one point I did look up on average, especially females,

292
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:57,600
we like to hold a little bit more fat. Men tend to get a little bit leaner

293
00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:00,320
because we have to stay healthy with our hormones. Yeah.

294
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:07,840
And at one point, I feel like we needed to have at least like 20 pounds of body fat or something,

295
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:12,400
on average, depending on your height or whatever, because you just, you need to have some.

296
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:20,160
So you're like, okay, well, I've got 34.5, oh, 0.5. So basically 34 pounds.

297
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:24,000
So if you would come to me and say, Sarah, I still want to lose 20 pounds.

298
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,200
I'd be like, that's not even probably going to be healthy at that point

299
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:31,040
because it's putting your body fat number way too low.

300
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:34,240
So it helps set realistic goals to understand them.

301
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:40,000
The other thing with like the lean body weight is because your muscles are included in that number,

302
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:47,360
it's not the whole number, but included, you can trend over time how much muscle you're actually

303
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:50,560
gaining as a byproduct of strength training. Okay.

304
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:54,880
What you're doing and your bones will get more dense. So that number, so you, what you want to do

305
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,680
is you want to see that lean body weight number increase. Yeah.

306
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:02,160
Well, you're seeing that body fat number probably decrease a little bit,

307
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,880
probably decrease a little bit. And then that's going to change them.

308
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:10,240
What your overall body composition is. So what it does then is it gives, there's a chart.

309
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:15,280
Men and women are different, but there's classification. So there's five categories.

310
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:21,680
You have an essential fat category, athletes, fitness, acceptable range.

311
00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:26,240
And then there's an obesity, like obese range. I'm in the athlete range, right?

312
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,600
You're in the fitness range. Okay.

313
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:35,520
That's not right. I mean, you're, yeah, you just dipped in past the acceptable range.

314
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:46,160
Okay. So essential fat is 10 to 12% in females. Men is two to 4%. So you can see how much leaner

315
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:50,080
that they can get and still be healthy and not have to worry about those adverse effects,

316
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:56,320
especially with, with like hormone balances. Your athletes are typically between 14 and 20%

317
00:15:56,320 --> 00:16:05,600
body fat for women. Your fitness category is 21 to 40. I'm sorry, 21 to 41. No, that's not right.

318
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:15,440
That's a big range. 21 to 24%. So that's a kind of shorter category. And then acceptable is 25%

319
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:27,120
to 31%. Okay. And obese in women is 32% plus body fat percentage. So that's, that's where you're at.

320
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:33,520
There's your numbers. So you just fit you're in the fitness category. Yay. You're like,

321
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:39,200
I'm like, I busted down. And that's a good category to be in. Yeah. That's a healthy,

322
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:44,640
I ain't mad at it. Yeah, no, absolutely not. So that's always something to understand. I'm gonna,

323
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:49,520
I'm gonna have to go find one of those pictures. I probably actually have one stored on my phone

324
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:55,120
that where it will show like physique pictures as it relates to what the actual body fat percentage

325
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:59,920
is. So like you put in your numbers and it'll show you. So this is just like a, a picture

326
00:16:59,920 --> 00:17:06,080
compilation. Somebody put together where it's like, okay, if you are at 10% body fat, this is

327
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:13,440
probably what you know, okay, your torso would look like, you know, and then if you have 15% body

328
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:17,440
fat, you're here. If you're 20 and sometimes that's a good visual guide to be like, okay,

329
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:21,760
what are my realistic goals? Yeah. If you want to go for a shredded six pack and you're gunning

330
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:28,400
more towards that 10% range, well, what you have to do to get there is a lot more extreme and

331
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:33,120
dramatic than it is to just bust into one of those other ones. And so you just have to make

332
00:17:33,120 --> 00:17:38,880
that decision then lifestyle. Well, it's going to make sense. Okay. So any questions about your

333
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:44,480
results? No, you're happy with that. I'm happy with that. Yeah. That's a good spot to be in. I mean,

334
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:52,480
okay. So now should we do mine? Yeah. Cause I, we took mine too. Um, so we'll plug in my numbers. So

335
00:17:52,480 --> 00:18:08,400
I 42 weight was 164.4. I'm five nine ish nine, nine 10. My abdominal pinch was 17. My thigh pinch

336
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:19,600
was 18. My tricep pinch was 15. And my superlac was 18. No, hold on. Oh, seven. Sorry. That was my hip.

337
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:27,760
Okay. My support lac was seven. I get them right. Belly was 17. I was 18 tricep 15. And then the

338
00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:35,600
superlac was seven. And so I went back and I have a history of what my pinches were and my body fat

339
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:42,560
percentage all the way back to May, 2015. Dang. So because back then you've had a whole array of

340
00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:49,920
array of like situation life situations. Yeah. Since then you've done fitness competitions, you've been pregnant,

341
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:58,000
you've been postpartum. I think I probably have like emails to my coach. Yeah. Go before then. I

342
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:08,960
mean, I think I did my first competition in 2010. Oh, be fine. Right. 11, 2011 or 12, 2000, somewhere

343
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:13,040
in there. But you're not even physically the same person you were because all of your cells have been generated.

344
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:19,440
We've talked about this, but I'm still going to fit back into my jeans. So I would probably be able to go back

345
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:24,160
through emails and find measurements from before then, but this is when I first started putting my

346
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:32,240
data into this same app. So May, 2015 was nine months postpartum. Your first. Baby number one. Yeah.

347
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:41,280
When I stepped on stage for the last time, my body fat percentage was 9.47%. Wow. Which is crazy. I've not

348
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:48,240
been that lean since. Yeah. That was pretty lean. And then I bumped back up because honestly, there's a

349
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:54,480
reason why that category is called essential fat. Yeah. 10 to 12% for women. And I was under that.

350
00:19:55,280 --> 00:20:00,080
You don't typically see people get under that and stay, especially if they're interested in

351
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:05,600
reproduction and having, because it just, it messaged with your hormones for sure. Your body's like,

352
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:10,800
I'm not helping. So you took that into consideration. So I totally did. So your second. Absolutely. So,

353
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:16,240
and, and I also didn't stay there for very long because I didn't want it to have negative impacts.

354
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:21,120
It was like, it was, you had a goal. Yeah. And I, I didn't like go crazy right afterwards, but I mean,

355
00:20:21,120 --> 00:20:25,040
I slowly let myself kind of like creep up a little bit because I knew we wanted to have more kids.

356
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:31,760
And so then when I found out I was pregnant with baby number two, my body fat percentage was 14.35%.

357
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:39,280
Okay. So it jumped up a little bit, but still in that like athletes range. And then I did a photo

358
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:47,840
shoot after I had had him, it was about 11.76. So it dipped back down again. And then if you talk

359
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:52,960
about what would I be like right after pregnancy? Yeah. So how much does that vary? And there's not,

360
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:57,360
there's no doing this during pregnancy, right? Like this is not really, is it mostly because your

361
00:20:57,360 --> 00:21:05,600
scale weight gets really thrown off with your water weight. The weight of I held, I held a ton of water.

362
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:11,280
And I do actually, I have a friend that has like an in touch or in body, in body system that when I

363
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:18,080
was pregnant, just to see yeah, of water, it was, it was a lot. So it does, that scale weight does

364
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,120
throw you off when you're pregnant. I mean, you could do pinches, but they're still not going to

365
00:21:21,120 --> 00:21:25,920
be super accurate. You're kind of comparing apples and oranges. So when I was two months,

366
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:34,240
then postpartum with number three, my body fat percentage was 26.68% body fat. So you can kind

367
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,840
of see how it like jumped up then a little bit and then kind of hovered in the middle of that

368
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:44,720
fitness range postpartum, eight weeks postpartum, your body's getting, you know, back to your regular

369
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:48,480
blood mass. You've probably pushed a lot of water out, you know, kind of starting to come back.

370
00:21:48,480 --> 00:22:00,000
And so then six months after that, I was down to 15.88%, which would make sense because that was

371
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:07,520
about 1% fat, like 1% loss a month over those next six months. So, you know, there are people

372
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:14,000
that have different, what they consider as progress. Precision nutrition, which is where I get a lot of

373
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:17,680
my nutrition information from, where my certifications are from, they are, they are

374
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:26,160
where my certifications are from. They believe that 1% fat loss a month is stellar. Slow, over time,

375
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:30,560
going to be consistent. If you're somebody that's say, interested in stepping on stage or doing

376
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:35,840
comp ramp or something that's a little bit more of a fast over a short period of time, you know,

377
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:42,080
you can get up to 1% fat loss a week. You're making some sacrifices. You know, you're not

378
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:49,120
living, you're not living, no, it's pretty intense. So, all right, so that's where we were at with my

379
00:22:49,120 --> 00:22:53,280
history. So I am going to calculate out what it says right now. So right now, then it says based

380
00:22:53,280 --> 00:23:05,280
on where I'm at today, that my body fat percentage is 18.17. So I've got 29.86 pounds of body fat.

381
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:15,280
My lean body weight is 134.54. So I'm falling kind of in that athletes range. Yeah, attracts. I know

382
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:23,600
that I am happiest with how I look in the mirror. And I like being able to wear shorts in the summer.

383
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:27,920
Like that for me is the biggest indicator. Yeah. If I can feel comfortable in wearing like jean

384
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:34,080
shorts in the summer, I know that my body fat number, I like it to be right around that 20.

385
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:40,480
So not the percentage, but just straight up how many pounds of body fat am I carrying? Right.

386
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:46,960
Which scale weight that will put me closer to like 150s. Yeah, which probably put me closer to,

387
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:53,600
you know, probably 12 or 13%. Yeah. Percent body fat. I'd be as my happy place. Okay. I'll get

388
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:59,760
there. I have no doubt. Slowly. That was the one thing I promised myself after this last one. I was

389
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:05,120
like, I'm going to take my time getting there. I don't have to do this again. And I don't want it

390
00:24:05,120 --> 00:24:12,080
to be quick that it all comes back afterwards. So it's been low and it's been slow. Yeah. Low

391
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:17,760
losses, slow. And I'm happy with that. So awesome. There we go. All right. Now we talked about body

392
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:22,960
composition. Yeah. I wish I would have, I wish I would have hated it. I wish I would have had these

393
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:30,320
numbers last summer just to see, cause last summer was like my tip of tipping point where I was like,

394
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:36,240
all right, time to buy the fat jeans, time to buy the fat tank top mom swimsuit, you know,

395
00:24:37,360 --> 00:24:43,120
cause I did not feel comfortable last year at all. Yep. Yeah. So there's a whole, whole new situation.

396
00:24:43,120 --> 00:24:47,120
And now like I'm, you know, I look at the mirror now and I'm like, okay, dang girl. I'm making it.

397
00:24:47,120 --> 00:24:53,200
All right. Yeah. Let's bust out that swimsuit. You know, but that is, I mean, it was actually

398
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:57,200
kind of interesting just going back through my history of like, yeah, what are, what was,

399
00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:01,440
what was I doing that month and year? And it was like, okay, that was when that one was,

400
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:05,200
and that's when I had them. And so that history is actually kind of nice. It's something that most

401
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:08,960
people don't want to do. You don't want to say, I never thought about doing it. I mean, I guess I

402
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:13,360
always knew it was a thing, but I never like sitting here now, I wish I had those numbers,

403
00:25:13,360 --> 00:25:19,200
just, you know, from you, it's a way to see progress. Sometimes you're your own worst enemy

404
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:24,400
in the mirror. You're always, you're an always nitpick that one specific area. Like for me,

405
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:29,200
it holds around my belly until I just have to get super dialed in with my nutrition, almost to the

406
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:33,680
point where I'm like miserable, really. And then I'm like, well, is that worth it to lose that extra

407
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,960
little like bit? Right. It's hovering around there. I'm like, depends on what your goals are. It

408
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:40,240
depends on what your goals are. Maybe someday I'll be like, yes, let's just bust through it. But

409
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:45,040
then sometimes like, I don't know, maybe it's okay now. I don't really know. We'll see. But it,

410
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:49,280
it's helpful to have it. The other thing that is really super helpful that usually people try to

411
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:54,640
shy away from our progress pictures, because when you start thinking that things haven't changed,

412
00:25:55,200 --> 00:26:00,000
you can take another one and you're like, oh wait, actually. And I haven't taken like formal,

413
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:04,560
you know, in front of the mirror progress pictures, but I had sent you pictures from

414
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:10,800
just like two years ago, one year ago, you know, similar poses or situations or whatever,

415
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:16,720
where it's like, oh wow, there's a difference. Yeah. Big difference. So, you know, that would be,

416
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:22,080
that would be something that I would definitely encourage people to do is just collect the data.

417
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:27,200
You don't have to show anyone. You don't have to tell anyone. You don't have to do anything with it.

418
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:32,640
You know, like I would love to have more and I will, I think I will keep, yeah, you know,

419
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:36,320
measuring this. You can do circumference measurements too. Sometimes that's a helpful

420
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:41,680
one. See, that's another thing I've never done. Waist. Yep. You know, never done that. Chest,

421
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:47,760
waist, hips, you know, you can watch then that's how much space you're taking up on the outside.

422
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:52,240
I just always go by the chin. Oh, well, yeah. I'm like, I'm like, well, I'm like three chins down

423
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:56,320
from last year. But you realize all you have to do is like tip your chin up and push your,

424
00:26:56,320 --> 00:27:03,520
well, I get a whole chin situation. That's honestly, that was when like, when I really

425
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:10,400
started seeing it in my face, I was like, oh no, no, it does. I can deal, I can deal with the belly

426
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:15,520
and the, you know, the thighs and stuff. Once I'm like looking in where I can't like hide it

427
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:22,400
and you can see the face, neck up, you know, it's like, oh gosh. Okay. It's time. It's for me. And I,

428
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:28,320
you know, right. I know not everybody feels that way, whatever, but everybody has their own,

429
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:34,480
you know, limits of what they can stand. You do you, whatever makes you happy. That was mine.

430
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:41,920
That was, it was a phase. It's getting the jowls. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I get it. I get it. So,

431
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:47,680
all right. That is the low down scoop on body fat percentage. That was fun. Body composition. That

432
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:51,440
was a little, you know, kind of a fun episode. Let's never touch that much again. I don't want

433
00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:55,360
to touch you again. Nope. I mean, unless you want me to do your, I'll pinch you at you with my

434
00:27:55,360 --> 00:27:59,440
calipers again. Yeah, we'll probably do it. And then we'll, we'll do an update when we do that.

435
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:06,240
So that's it. That's all we got for, for today. Okay. Until next time. Bye. Thanks for listening.
