"I've realized that a little mindfulness and movement can truly make a difference."

 

Whether you're here for the first time or a regular reader, thank you for joining me!

I'm your companion trainer, Starter Shiori.

Kayo san, a woman in her 30s working in an office, who had been participating in the monitoring program since September, has completed her program! Although she had some prior exercise experience, the sedentary nature of her office job led to concerns about swelling.

After three months of altering her diet and maintaining a workout routine, here are the results for Kayo san:



Waist: 79.6cm → 76.7cm Weight: 58.2kg → 56.4kg Body Fat Percentage: 28.0% → 25.0% Muscle Mass: 39.4kg → 39.8kg Basal Metabolic Rate: 1237kcal → 1237kcal Visceral Fat Level: 4.0 → 3.5

Great job on these positive changes!



It seems that while Kayo san's overall body fat percentage was slightly higher initially, she wasn't considered obese. Although the numeric changes might not be extreme, the personal satisfaction comes from the remarkable transformation in her abdomen, back, and arms. Great job, Kayo san!

Here is Kayo san's feedback:


  1. Why did you decide to start this program?


I was concerned about my body shape, but I wasn't paying attention to my diet and lifestyle, and I didn't know what to do.

2. If you have any thoughts or realizations after undergoing the program, please share them with us.



I realized that even with a little bit of attention and some movement, things can really change.


3. What was your impression of the trainer?



She tailored the program based on my current physical condition and left a very attentive impression.


4. Did you feel and notice any changes in your mindset, body, or other aspects before and after participating in the program?

Yes.


5. Who would you recommend this program to?


Those who don't know where to start but want to do something and make a change.

6. For those who are unsure about joining the program, could you please share a few words of encouragement?

If you can't change on your own or if you feel like you can't do it alone, I think you should give it a try."



Thank you so much for the past three months, Kayo-san! Since your nutrition is already on point, please continue with stretching, running, and self-massage. Keep up the good work!

Ran 100km in 15 hours... result? DNF!

イメージ
Have you heard about the 'Last Man Standing Ultra Marathon?' It might not be the world's most famous race, but it has some dedicated fans, and I became one of them last week. So today, I'll share how crazy this race is, what I learned from it, and maybe make you feel like saying, 'Wanna run!' The Last Man Standing (in Japan, we call it Last 'Samurai' Standing) is, as the name suggests, an endurance race (now you know why I like it). Runners need to cover about 6.7 km in 1 hour and start the next 6.7 km in the following hour. Whether you run fast and rest a few minutes or just make it in time, everyone starts simultaneously for the next hour. The last person standing or running wins. Anyone else, regardless of how long or how much they've run, gets a DNF (Did Not Finish). My result was 15 hours, covering just about 100 km, and, of course, it's a DNF. (It seems like the last samurai ran for 70 hours... 469 km!!) I'm pretty satisfied with my res...

Shocking Truth: Goals Hindering Other Goals

イメージ
Slim Down!   Or/And  Get Beautiful! Even though you've set these goals, if you find it challenging to take action and almost a year has passed, you might be wondering... Well, if that's you, it's possible that a hidden agenda of yours is interfering with your primary goals. What does a hidden agenda mean? If you're curious, keep reading. A hidden agenda refers to things you are aiming for or desiring unconsciously. Without you realizing it, you might be heading toward those goals. For example, you say you want to lose weight, but somewhere deep down, if you're secretly thinking, "I want to indulge in lots of sweets!"—you might end up succumbing to that hidden goal or desire. Gasp! Maybe you've had a hunch somewhere along the way... So, does that mean you can't achieve the goal of "losing weight" in the end? If that thought crossed your mind, worry not. Just becoming aware of this hidden agenda can significantly realign your primary goals....

The Result of Rushing to the Goal

イメージ
  Thank you to both those visiting for the first time and those who are regular readers! I'm Shiori Statter, your running companion trainer guiding you towards your goals. Over the weekend, I went to Hiroshima for three days. My husband was participating in an ultramarathon, running 100km from Kure City in Hiroshima, so I went along to support him and, in the meantime, practice driving. During the solo drive, I realized, "Ah, accidents happen when you rush to the goal. The same applies to dieting," drawing from my own experiences. Today, I'll share that insight with you. I waved goodbye to my husband, who started early in the morning, and began my first solo drive after witnessing a beautiful sunrise. Since my husband had plenty of time for his 100km run, I thought, "Why not go hiking in the mountains?" I found a mountain called Ichimine-yama, which offered a fantastic view. Although the observatory was reachable by car, the road seemed quite narrow on the m...
