Only 10 days into Dax Moy's muscle in a month programme and there have already been positive gains in muscle size.
My weight is remaining pretty stable but I have definately dropped body fat. I am expecting my weight to go up from now on, I think I have struggled to take in enough calories for the amount of activity I'm doing.
Dax has recommended bounce protein balls as a snack and mine arrived yesterday, they're really tasty and I know the extra source of calories and good protein is going to help.
I'm also waiting for Organic Warrior Milk which is another source of protein that fits in with the elimination diet and eating clean process, I'm not a fan of supplementing nutrients with shakes etc, many are just a bunch of chemicals and a little protein that your body can't process, but I trust Dax's recommendation. I'll post here more details when it arrives.

Muscle in a Month Challenge

Last week my friend Dax Moy asked a bunch of coaches to try out a programme he’s devised. The programme has been aims to strip body fat and build ‘muscle in a month’. It has come at a really good time; I’m not training for any events at the minute so I agreed to give it 100%.

We’ve all had to sign a confidentiality agreement, so I can’t give any details of the programme itself and we only find out the night before what we will be doing the next day. I will however, post daily updates of measurements and photos.

This programme is going to be intense and use methods that I don’t normally follow, in a strange way I’m really looking forward to it. As a coach it is nice for somebody to tell me how to train for a change.

Here are my starting measurements and pics.

Shoulders (widest part) - 46”
Chest (widest part) - 39”
Arms (biggest part) - Right 13¼” - Left 13”
Waist (navel, not trouser size) - 37½”
Hips (widest part) - 42”
Gluteal Fold - Right 25¼” - Left 25”
Thigh (4” up from patella) - Right 20½” - Left 20”
Calves (biggest part) - Right 16¾” - Left 16”

Weight - 87.2kg
