Greetings, fellow nerds. Happy to join, don't much approve of death stars and the like. Too high taxation. I'm Sythez, and I'll be joining things around here starting today. Moved into a new place, starting a new year of University in the great city of Edmonton, and decided that, despite not being overly unhappy with the way I look, I am not happy with living a life that I grew up with, on processed crap and poor exercise habits. A bit about myself; 210 pounds, 5'8", turning 20 and 2nd year universityAvid fan of Starwars, LotR, and Jim Butcher's series The Dresden Files (think bad ass modern wisardry in downtown chicago)Practice a chinese martial art I guarantee you've never heard of (Ba Ying Quan, northern family style)LoL silver 5 (currently)Massive sucker for any girl with a great laugh, awesome smile, and/or great gaming skills What I'm hoping to achieve with NerdFitness and the challenges: Target weight between 170-185 of muscled healthy weight, ideally within 6months - 1 yearA committed routine of activity, balancing flexibility, endurance, and strength over at least 4 days a week.Ditching soda, eating amazing tasting food that is not processed to plastic and gives me the nutrients my body needsSpartan like physique and attitude, although I'll settle for just plain damn sexy ​ I know that its pretty much impossible to get that on my own, and am really happy to have found a group of people who are like minded! Thanks in advance for the help I know you'll be, and as for the message in the intro; Han Solo is a bit of a hero for me, in the sense that he honestly is a bad guy who has a heart of gold. He had no qualms about shooting a gangster straight up, yet despite being a jerk, still risks his life to save a princess. In my case, my fat is the bad guy, im shooting it before it shoots me, and the princess... is in the works, I hope... (just need to ask her out for that dinner...) Hoping to join the rangers! Peace out all, thanks for reading, and I look forward to supporting you guys with your goals and being supported by you as well!
