Hello everyone! Alright, so my story is on my profile page so I won't clutter this thread with the whole thing, but to make it short; I was obese, got in-shape, got sick and back to obese again, and am now trying to get back into shape while juggling being a husband, father, student, and working. I took the beginners routine and modified it a bit, then put some interval training as well as some exercise classes and a bit of weightlifting. I'm also going to do some portion controlling of my food, limiting calorie intake and how much is allowed on my plate (cutting down meats, raising up veggies, etc.). Current Stats: Height: 6'0" Weight: 295 Currently able to complete: 10 Full Push-Ups 40 Crunches 0 Pull-Ups 20 Seconds of Planks Yep, I'm not in the very good condition (especially compared to when I was in-shape). I've taken a picture of myself now and will take one at the end and hopefully there will be some sort of difference, lol. Six Week Challenge: Diet Goals: (+1 to CHA, +3 to CON) Eat a max of 2000 calories a day. Eat at least one side of fruits/vegetables a day. 1 "rest day" a week where I can hit 3500 calories. Level Up My Life Goal: (+ 3 to STA) Spend more time outside of the house (parks, walking around the mall, etc.). At least 1 hour every other day (excluding Sundays). Fitness Goals: (+2 to STR, DEX, STA, CHA) Complete the following exercise routines: Mon/Wed/Fri: 1 Set: Jumping Jacks: 30 Squats: 30 Push-Ups: 10 Crunches: 20 Reverse Crunches: 20 Plank: 20-Seconds Tue/Thu/Sat: Interval Training: 5 Minutes of light walking. 5 Sets of: 30 seconds of increased pace. 2 minutes of decreased pace. 5 minutes of light jogging and stretching. I'm sure this could be better, and advice is welcome. I've put a lot of research into this but I also know there's always those with more info/experience than me. - Armored Gallant
