Cardio and Yoga fanatic!

Why hello, I didn't see you sitting there.

I'm new to NF but I've been working out near-daily for just under a year. I really kicked it into high gear recently because I have been doing a challenge at my gym.

I love the elliptical, jogging (trying to get better at that), biking, and I love love yoga. I bike year round, even though I live in Minnesota.

I'm a vegan (mostly, I have some slips) for health reasons (my health, not yours... if you eat meat or dairy, good for you!).

Anyways, I'd like some friends. I'm excited about NF because the posts I've read so far, everyone seems to be very positive and helpful. Feel free to add me if you're a kind person looking for a kind friend.

ETA: Battle plans: eat clean, because it's tasty and allows me to eat A LOT. Work out at the gym daily because it's really fun and makes me feel awesome. Do a crap-ton of yoga because that makes me feel awesome, too.

What I bring to the table: Maybe some of my tenacity will rub off? I. Do. Not. Quit. And resting is not quitting, FYI/

So...are you a unicorn that's an assassin? Or an assassin that specializes in taking down unicorns?

Welcome to the Rebellion! Your post is reminding me I need to do more yoga and stretch...I did it for a week straight and felt amazing but still haven't gotten it stuck as a habit yet.

Glad to have you,

-Steve

I'll go with I'm unicorn that is an assassin... who sometimes assassinates other unicorns... ha.

Yeah, I can't believe how good yoga feels. I like feeling so much more connected to my body.

Welcome! I really like the way you explained your veganism - "for my health, not yours". Simple and avoids conflict!

I was surprised by how much I enjoyed yoga when I tried it as well. Always leaves me feeling great after some serious workouts throughout the week.

Hi! (I just joined as well, but you probably knew that since you read my intro...)

Nice seeing more Minnesotans. I'm in Mankato, myself. I'm glad you feel welcomed here - I like the fact that NF manages to include everyone (paleo types, vegans, Crossfitters, yoga enthusiasts, etc...) and doesn't cater completely to any specific group. The fact that everybody manages to get along is even better. Oh, and consider yourself friended.
