Male Speaker: How do I measure weight gain performance? Taras Raggio: Managing your weight gain performance can help keep you on track and closer to your goals. For example to say if you want to increase your physical activity such as running, using a pedometer can measure the number of strides you take everyday or if you want to increase your food consumption or your total calorie intake using a nutritional journal to track the foods that you eat and writing them down will also help you measure your goals.
