Beerzerker Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Hey, all, Beerzerker here, Just signed up for Nerd Fitness Academy last week. My wife's been a member for a while, and I thought I should join in the fun. I'm in decent shape, but want to improve. Currently, I mountain bike with my son during the summer and snowboard in the winter with my son and my daughter(she skis). We live in western Wisconsin, where we've been having a lot of rain recently. Looking forward to getting to know some of you and letting my geek loose a bit. One of my hobbies is making beer at home, and I love the the process as well as the end result. My goal is to get under 20 % body fat. I'm currently at 22 %. I posted my before pictures and stats over here on Facebook: I'm 39 (that number changes in August). See you in the adventure! Quote Level 6 - Ranger Technomage- Battle Log "Easy things are seldom worth doing." - Quote from Firestar, one of my favorite books. Fitness goal: Lower weight from 243 lbs to below 230, or lower body fat from 22% to below 20%. Why fitness matters(my big why): I want to be strong & fit so when I want to try or do any activity, I know my body will be able to do it. Or, stated another way: My level of fitness is directly proportional to the level of awesomeness I can achieve. https://www.facebook.com/intensityforlife/ http://www.intensityforlife.com Link to comment
Happytin Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Hi there, Welcome to the rebellion. I got involved because my wife joined too, it's definitely catching! I'm excited to see how your posture changes as you progress. Do you work at a computer all day? Those are some beautiful rounded shoulders 1 Quote Who am I? | My Quests | Goodreads Link to comment
Beerzerker Posted June 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Indeed I do. Some days way more than I should. Posture is definitely one thing I need to work on. Thanks for saying hi.

Bookish Badger Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Beer is one of my favorite nerdoms! In my case, drinking rather than brewing. (Pity about the carb content...*sigh*) Welcome! Have you thought about any guilds or challenges you want to join? Quote "'It's time for a few small repairs,' she said." - Shawn Colvin Link to comment

Have you thought about any guilds or challenges you want to join? I'm leaning toward joining the rangers. I've been doing crossfit-like workouts for a while. Haven't investigate the challenges too closely yet. I agree about the carbs.
