In a 21 day body transformation challenge there are the three key things you need to do when you are taking part!

In the challenge I am doing now there is a first prize of R25 000 (U$1400) and that drew my attention.

Story of the R50 note … this follows in the video below.

All of us will be able to use some extra cash for some or other reason.

Body transformation – first thought – I could not even come into consideration. Thought 2 – maybe I could give it a try – but how? Let me gain weight and muscle.

How do I do that?

I want to share three key things with you briefly in the video attached:

1. Focus and gather friends to support

2. All is not ruined if you cheat

3. Have a plan and stick to the plan. Adjust where required ….

My idea – lose weight like crazy for ten days – build muscle like crazy for ten days!

Check in again to see what happened …. I will keep you updated ….

Update: 4 August 2020 – day 1 completed – small weight loss

I had a normal day of meal replacement shakes and then a full plate of normal healthy food. I ran a 4km hilly run with friends in roughly 30 minutes. 

I started with a fast last night at 9pm (should have been 8pm, but I had a late coffee). The first portion of the fast is dry which means no liquids (apart from brushing my teeth and my shower this morning). This will last for 18 hours. Then it is on to different liquids and electrolytes today. I expect to lose at least 1,5kg today. Exercise for the day will be 88 kettle bell swings and 50 pushups and no running today. See you at the next update!

Interesting few days, it has been! I managed to drop the weight only to pick it up over the weekend with a long run and some relaxed eating. So from Sunday night 9pm it is another fast for two or three days to see what happens. Could I now drop 4 kg in three days? We will see – I wanted to be about 5kg down from my starting weight last Monday – this seems to be a very difficult step now! Let’s go and see what is possible (10 August 2020 – 9:20 pm)
