Cameraman Smashes 90-Day Transformation Adding 7 Kilos Of Mass

First, Browney and his team took Lennard’s measurements, including weight and body fat percentage.

Day 1 measurements:

• Weight: 153lb/69.5kg
• Shoulders: 112cm
• Chest: 93cm
• Waist: 80cm
• Thighs: R:54cm L:53cm
• Upper Arm: R:28cm L:28cm
• 11.9% body fat
• 49% muscle mass

Browney also had Lennard complete a series of fitness challenges that he’ll do again at the 30, 60 and 90-day mark. On day one, Lennard was able to complete:

• 5 pull-ups
• 95cm box jump
• 15 push-ups
• 28 seconds to burn 20 calories on the exercise bike (Browney wants to get this down to 20 seconds by day 90)

Browney was hopeful that Lennard was going to smash this challenge and build some serious muscle. But to win the prize, he’d have to reach every goal they set out.

Lennard’s goals:

• Gain 7kg/15lb of muscle
• Double his strength
• Gain confidence

With the measurements taken, goals put in place, and plenty of Myprotein goodies to fuel his journey, Lennard was ready to start.

After setting up a home gym, getting to grips with his workout plan, and eating more than he’s ever eaten, completed his first workout. Everything was looking great until … he realised he actually lost weight on day two. But it was early days and Lennard pushed through, even doing workouts in a tiny hotel room while on holiday in France.

Before he knew it, it was time for the day-30 check in.

Day 30 check-in:

Day 30 brought some reflection for Lennard too, explaining “the comment was a joke obviously but there was some truth in it. When I looked in the mirror, I felt weak.”

Measurements:

• Weight: 163.1lb/74.5kg
• Shoulders: 120cm
• Chest: 98cm
• Waist: 82cm
• Thighs: R:57cm L:56cm
• Upper arm: R:30cm L:30cm

Fitness:

• 8 pull-ups
• 26 push-ups
• 23 seconds to burn 20 calories on the exercise bike

Lennard was feeling confident and motivated after absolutely smashing the first 30 days.

Days 31 to 60 saw an increase in intensity of the workouts, adding in more explosive movements to keep everything challenging. Lennard pushed through it all, and made it to day 60, stronger than ever.

Day 60 check-in

Measurements:

• Shoulders: 121cm
• Chest: 100cm
• Waist: 83cm
• Thighs: R:59cm L:58cm
• Upper arm: R:32cm L:32cm

Fitness:

• Almost 10 pull-ups
• 28 push-ups
• 21 seconds to burn 20 calories on the exercise bike
• 108cm box jump
• Balls test: 31 secs

Until this point it had been smooth sailing for Lennard. But progress was slowing down, and the final 30 days were really tough.

First off, disaster struck … Lennard Myprotein stash ran out. Protein Pancake Mix for his breakfast, Impact Whey for his daily shakes and all his other snacks. Thankfully, Browney restocked them and the panic was over.

But then a series of really, really bad things happened.

On day 65 Lennard injured himself frolicking on the beach. Yep, not even in a workout. He fell awkwardly and ended up hurting his ankle, meaning he had to skip the leg work for a while.

Then, on day 72, Lennard got sick and ended up having to skip a few workouts.

Then (yep, there’s more) Lennard sprained his ankle while warming up for a workout. That’s when the stress and doubt really started to set in.

But this is normal on any fitness journey, and Lennard wasn’t giving with just 10 days to go. He pulled himself back up and went for the final push.

In the final week Browney gave Lennard the news that they were going to change his diet for the lead up to the photoshoot. It was brutal (and in no way recommended). It meant cutting carbs and loading up on water.

So after what was probably the most intense week of the 90 days yet, Lennard was at the finish line. It was time for the 90-day check in.

Day 90 final check-in and photoshoot:

Measurements:

• Weight: 168.7lb/76.5kg
• Shoulders: 123cm
• Chest: 103cm
• Upper arm: R:32cm L:32cm
• Waist: 83cm
• Thighs: R:61cm L:59cm

Fitness:

• 11 pull-ups
• 35 push-ups
• Balls test: 12 seconds
• 18 seconds to burn 20 calories on the exercise bike

Lennard absolutely smashed the challenge, more than doubling his strength, gaining 7kg overall and building his confidence in and out of the gym.

After the photoshoot, it was time to find out what Lennard’s prize was. So Browney checked his analytics and worked out Lennard would get a whopping $10,071. That’s one hell of a bonus. And what does Lennard plan to spend it on? A camera. Obviously.

Take home message

Lennard made a huge transformation in just 90 days. What an impressive achievement. The prize incentive may have helped, but Lennard says the support of the viewers went a long way to pushing him and providing the extra motivation when he was struggling to get over the line.

And of course, we like to think we played our part as well, fuelling Lennard with plenty of shakes and protein pancakes throughout the course of his challenge.
