I stumbled upon this site looking for a way to improve my pull ups. I've been working out for a little over a year. Started at 280lbs, now down to 220.

What do the abbreviations mean? STR: 6 | DEX: 1 | CON: 1 | STA: 2 | WIS: 3 | CHA: 2. How do you get these numbers.

Also how do I know which category to join? Warrior, ranger, scout and so on.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Essentially, the stats you detail are a new addition to our 6-weekly challenges that we have set ourselves, and as we complete goals we set for ourselves within the 6 week period (next one starts 18 Jun) we attribute more points. Just a nerdy way of leveling up.

As for which category to join, the Guilds are broken down into what kind of exercise type you prefer.

Warriors are all about lifting heavy

Rangers are about lifting + high intensity workouts such as Crossfit

Scouts are all about running, biking swimming,

Monks, train in martial arts

Druids, do yoga

Adventurers, do a bit of everything.

Mind you you aren't stuck into one type of exercise, for example you'll find scouts that lift heavy weights, but just prefer running.

Great work on your life gain, dropping 60lbs is awesome. As for chin ups, have a read of Tom Kenobis next Six Week challenge outline http://www.nerdfitness.com/community/entry.php?8952-6-Week-Challenge-Outline-06-18-2012-06-30-12 He's following a 20 chinup program that you might be interested in.

Right on. I get it now.

I will have to look through the "classes" and figure out where to put myself.

Hopefully I will be able to find something to fits.

Might have to wait to start a challenge. My workout buddys and I are in the middle of trying a lean out phase. Doing high reps lower weight.

Two days a week we do:

30 inverted pullups

30 box jumps

30 push ups

30 kettlebell swing and jerks per side

30 Russian twists

30 curl to Arnold press.

30 hanging leg raises

Sprint for 1 min as fast as possible.

Trying to do this multiple times
