Goals for 2025

Now that I've been training consistently for about six months and have a baseline of health/fitness, I'm ready to set some goals for the next year.

Approximately one year from now, here are the composition and biomarker targets I'd like to achieve:

• Get total cholesterol under 145 mg/dL
• Get LDL cholesterol under 75 mg/dL
• Get HDL cholesterol over 40 mg/dL
• Achieve between 14%-16% body fat
• Weigh between 164-168 lbs

For reference, here are my most recent metrics:

• Total cholesterol: 151 mg/dL
• LDL cholesterol: 96 mg/dL
• HDL cholesterol: 36 mg/dL
• Body fat: 18%-20%
• Weight: 170-172 lbs

To achieve this, I need to:

• Be consistent with a diet that is 70%-80% plant-based
• Minimize cheat meals
• Continue to focus on good sleep
• Continue to focus on stress management
• Stay consistent with my exercise routine, but introduce new stimulus
• Increase volume and intensity of my training gradually
• Continue to focus on recovery
