Sifu Randy Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 Hi!I'm the new guy. I was born in Vienna, Austria 26 years ago and still live there. When i was a kid, i never was really athletic. Sport wasn't a mayor interest of me. My parents sent me to learn Jiu Jitsu (the japanese martial art, not the brazilian). I did that once a week till i was 14. At that time i started losing interest and developed some bad habits (smoking and drinking). Till i was 18 i didn't really do any sport (expect the mandatory school sport).It all changed, when i was drafted in the military (mandatory in Austria). I realised how weak i was, physically and mentally. So i decided that something had to change. After i was free again, i started running. Looking back i have to say, that getting outside 3 times a week was a real struggle. It wasn't really my sport. Nevertheless i lost about 12 kg in a year (going from 94 kgs to 82).My life changed when i found the strong lifts website. That was my type of training! I started weight lifting (first with the strong lifts programm, then starting strength). I worked hard and went back to my orginal weight of 94 kgs (but this time the gains were mostly muscle). The mental part of the sport helped me a lot and i try to apply this to my daily life (trying to do things i'm scared of).I started training martial arts (braz. jiu jitsu and boxing) again and i will stick with it for a long time. At the moment i'm also doing a body weight routine (from the book you are your own gym) for a change.All right i think that's enough for the start. I'm proud to join the rebellion and i think we will all be here for an exciting ride.
