Apoc220 Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Hey all,Just wanted to do the customary introduction and say hi to everyone. I'm 25 years old and looking to get back into the shape that I've only achieved when in the military. Not a complete newbie to working out as my stint in the military and a season of high school wrestling gave me some good fundamentals. I've been dabbling with this for a bit but am looking to get serious in the new year. Going to rely primarily on body weight exercises (calesthenics and homemade suspension trainer) to start out. Moving forward I'm going to reward myself once I lose a good 20-30 pounds with a chin up bar. Right now I don't trust myself on the ones that will work on my door. Anyway, I'm looking forward to sharing this experience with you guys. Love the concept of us "nerds" getting together to level up in life. Not that much of a gamer myself. I have a ps3 and play games from time to time on it. Right now I'm in the process of playing Assassins Creed: Brotherhood. I love that game! haha... anyway, see you guys around!

Shmikey Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Hey Apoc, welcome aboard! Love the idea of rewarding yourself with something positive like a pull-up bar.

Apoc220 Posted January 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Hi Sco,I still haven't sat down and figured out my "level 50". However, a loose goal of mine would be to fit into some clothes that I have stored from a while back. Very possible but just a matter of making some smaller goals, or levels, to get me there. Thanks to everyone for your welcome. Quote "The Word Belongs to Those that Hustle!" - From The Art of Manliness Fitocracy Profile Link to comment
