Default Is it possible......

That after just one week of resistance work I'd notice a change? Its just a small one, but I swear I have my old calves back The ones I earned cycling for 5 years..... I did lose 1/2 " there as of Friday last week (not measuring again until NEXT friday) and about 5lbs (lol, that would be 5lbs all over) ... If so, I gotta get home and work my abs!!

thx.
Nat

I wish that would work on abs! I have not been doing the ab work I need to be doing....... I think if you are very in tune with the way your body looks than maybe you can see a subtle change happen in a week. Realistically, I think it takes a bit longer but if you think you see a difference than I say, congrats, keep it up, etc!!!


Glad you're taking your measurements.... I think that helps me more than anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm pretty sure most of the muscle definition was already there.. the fat just left I've lost about an inch in two weeks on each calf. Some of the muscle is new... heck, I'm just pleased.

thx for the reply
Nat
