Neil, when you workout sometimes your body holds on to water so if you just use the scale to gauge your progress it can be deceiving. Also, when you work out you build muscle whilst you lose fat so the scale might stay the same but your body composition has change, that is you replace fat with muscle. That's why it's a good idea to take measurements every four weeks and compare them with previous measurements.

Hope that helped.
