Vitality @ work.... Free Health check... OK, lets see what they say about me:
Height 160cm WTF?? I used to be 165... I've shrunk - must be the heavy squats!
Weight 69kg
My blood pressure is excellent 110/60
BMI 27 = overweight but not obese (obese being 30 - so I’m not far off…?!)
According to that my bodyfat percentage is 31% !!!!
Resting heart rate 56 – excellent
Blood sugar 4.9 – normal
Cholesterol 4.27 very good should be below 5.4
- HDL 1.45 good
- LDL 2.38 very good
Triclycerides .95 very good 2.0 is the normal level
Lung function 400 – very bad
37 situps in a minute and 47 pushups however I have a cardio age of a 57yo after failing to recover sufficiently after 3 minutes of climbing steps!! Wha??
So in summary: I am short, fat and very unfit - Perfect for a powerlifter :-)
Back to basics in training - trying to correct what may be a technical problem with my bench press. Not keeping tight enough. Light speed bench 5 reps @ 40 kg
Critique welcome....

It would be interesting to get your *actual* bodyfat tested. You are certainly not 31%. BMI numbers don't apply to bodybuilders like yourself. Does your gym have a set of fat calipers?
I laughed at your pushups being higher than your situps - most people would be the other way around.
More aerobic exercise required, methinks. Horseriding? Cycling? You need to get your lungs working...
my 2c. :-)
You do some serious training! I compete in pwerlifting myself here in the U.S.. I just started a blog this weekend!
