M8:D9 (D626) Teenage mindset

My camera (video and still) is down and at the service center, so no video today.
 

What's on my mind today?

As many of you know, my main workout partner is my 14 year old son, Matty.  He has been doing such a great job with his progress the past year.  He has also joined me on this Combat the Fat mission.

Matty is the typical teenager.  He really enjoys his snack foods.  When I showed him the Combat the Fat program he realized that his snack foods would have to be eliminated.  With just a small amount of grumbling, he set out to accomplish what the program laid out for him.  At this point, he has managed to stick to the program like a champ.  He is eating better than I’ve ever seen him eat.  He is eating at least 5 to 6 times a day.  He has already learned after one week that food makes the difference more so than exercise. 

The workouts have been a challenge for Matty.  He does not have exceptional upper body strength and push ups play a large role in this program.  Matty has not complained.  He gets down to business and completes the workouts.  I have been very proud of his work ethic throughout this entire program thus far.

Matty’s main goal is to lose the belly fat he carries.  He has been measured at 17% body fat and most of that is in his stomach area.  He is working very hard to eliminate that issue.  He looks forward to the day when he can just maintain his body.

Today was a pyramid style workout.  I raised my weights on all exercises and barely managed to complete all the repetitions assigned.
