Weigh in

Just done my weighin fotmr the week and my weight is up a little bit to 103.10kgs which is not too bad as I have not trained very much at all this week due to aching legs and bad weather.

Even though my weight has not gone down I know that I have lost body fat this week as I can tie my shoe laces without crushing my diaphragm and not being able to breath. Also my Bmx trousers that were a struggle to close last weekend were loose yesterday which is another good sign.

I have also noticed that my stomach has started to flatten out which is a great sign.

Went to the track this morning to test out the dialled StayStrong and it was good except the bars and stem are too low for me. As the forks were cut down there is no option of raising the stem any higher so I will have to use the cliq forks when they come so that I can raise the stem up so that I don't feel like I am riding downhill all of the time. I have decided that I will get the URP 20mm hub that I bought last week built up on an alian nation rim so that it is strong but half the price of a box rim. As I do not want to spent much more money at the moment.

The session wasn't a total waist as my son decided he wanted to jump the small tabletop on the last straight which he managed to do after 5 tries which was impressive. He is now buzzing and wants to ride more to jump more which is cool.

I noticed that his gearing seemed a little low so I am going to mess around a bit with it a bit to see if he can get a little faster to help him improve more.
