5 SBD Giveaway To Teach The Importance Of Understanding Body Composition!

in health •  8 years ago 

I weighted 79kg on the left, whoever correctly guesses my weight in the second photo gets 5 SBD, a follow (if I'm not already) and 50% of this posts payout!

I'll make it known when someone gets it right. I am only asking you to guess to the nearest kilogram (sorry Americans)

Later I will do a follow up post explaining the importance of understanding body composition and how the scales aren't the only tool to judge progress

As you can see my posture is much better in the second photo. I feel so much more confident and I hardly recognize the person on the left... Also the morning sun makes my skin look very pale haha

Anyway, good luck!

Yours, with Purpose

Gah! Still no correct guess :( good tries though... it can be so difficult to pick weight from pictures regardless of what's changed haha

I appreciate all of your efforts!

Asking an American "how many grams?"

Thats me when calculating with pounds or measuring kilometers.

What even are yards or blocks, WHO MEASURES IN BLOCKS

Lol!! I'm American and I still have no concept of yards 🙈 and the only time I've heard "blocks" referred to city blocks when someone was walking up a street, but I guess "5 streets up" would work the same.

XD

We have a winner!!!! Well done friend I'll transfer the coinage now :)

Yeah!! thank you so much @harrynewman 😃 you just made my day
The posture is super important, and I can see you've mastered yours with excellence, congrats from Denmark. Followed you and looking much forward to more your posts 🙌

No worries! I appreciate your support and hope I can encourage and empower you towards your best self :)

I'm American so I'm guessing 74kg oh well u got my follow tho.. lol

Noooope not quite

Im guessing around 72kg :) you put on alot of muscle tho! Amazing work

Thank you for your support! But not the right guess sorry :(

I think 80kg muscles are much denser than fat, so even a bit of them gives you extra kgs ;) but you made it tricky with that stomach, so i can be wrong ;)

Mmmm not quite, good guess though :) thanks for the compliment! ;)

My guess would be 78kg. Since you've reduced body fat but gained muscle at the same time.

74.2 kg

Good try but not quite :/

76 :)

I would say 79kg still.
You look more defined on the right, so you probably lost a little body fat, but the muscle gain may have compensated

This is a good guess and would have been a very tricky answer to the question. But not quite. Good try though :)

87kg.

Nice guns by the way.

sadly not quite :/ thank you though!

I was mostly guessing based on what everyone else had already guessed. I have no clue how to judge what anyone weighs. Oh well.

62 kgs.

Way low Sammosk! Good try though no harm in going to the extreme ends of the spectrum :D

85 bruh

Hahaha good try man, in one of my pics that I'll show in the later post has me at 86.

I appreciate your efforts but!

🤓🤓 I believe that you are also 79kg in the second photo.

Look like you just raised your chest so high as a habit from your army cadet days🤓🤓

Hhaha I know I stick my chest out heaps! I have a wide chest like ma dad :)))

Still no correct answer yet.... thanks for giving it a go though!

I'd say 84 KG with the extra muscle

Still no right answer I'm actually amazed! People are getting so close though... glad you are are having fun :)

82 kg.

Haha this is fun 86kg lol.

My guess 83 kg.

No sorry friend. Getting very close!

  1. Glad you are feeling more confident and upright!

Thank you! Everyone focuses on the body fat, but the posture is just as important :)

81

82.54 kg ish.. maybe... I hope.
Looks like you've put on quite a bit of muscle mass!

Thanks for the compliment and support! But still not quite right...

I'm gonna say 79kg because i think this is a trick question, and it looks like your stance is enhancing what you already have. AND you got that natty lighting going on. 😄

That good lighting can make it a challenge hahaha

We have a winner congratulations @slywest! I weighed 77kg on the dot. Thank you for all your upgoats and guesses.

In the post to come on body composition I'll share some photos showing my progress and my clients.

I'm not doing this to show off, but hoping it'll give insights into why using the scales to judge progress can be such a poor choice. Especially when you are making the best type of changes to your body whether you are guy buffing up or a lady slimming down.

I'll also touch on my experiences with body dismorphia... something that affected me personally and can be crippling.

All the best guys!

Well only way I'll be able to guess is if I can pick you up and/or throw you or crash tackle you. And seeing as none of those options are likely to happen, I shall just leave htis hear for mild amusement value XP

HAHahaha @ryivhnn your always making me smile! Comedic value is appreciated :)

I guess I´m too late to participate, but for sure I would have said 77kg :D (not..., because I tend to never win anything :D)

The right picture you were probably 82-85kg and less than 10% body fat... I know for a fact that BMI and Scale is some type of measure doctor use for measuring the mass... but Muscle is denser than Fat... So you might have gain weight but you lowered your body fat %. so you are heavier but you look leaner...
