thedoctor Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Greetings, messageboards people. Who I am: 27 year old male, currently living in a tiny river town near Cincinnati. I'm a fan of roleplaying games, card games, sci-fi television, and croquet. I was referred here by a friend who is now away at Basic Training for the US Air National Guard. What I'm working with: I'm 5'7" and 115lbs. If there was ever an Elf in real life, I'm it. I've got decent agility, but basically lack anything resembling strength or endurance. I've got the metabolism of a V12 engine, so gaining weight has been rather difficult. I've put on 10lbs in the past 5 years by eating 4000 calories of convenience food per day. I've come to realize this process might be bad for me in the long run. What I'm working towards: I've been rather interested in the whole freerunning / parkour thing and thought that would be something I'd quite enjoy once I got in better shape. I need to increase my endurance and strength quite a bit, but really don't have a lot of local support for such endeavors. Glad to be here and hopefully I can get something done with my life. -?

Plex Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 Howdy thedoctor, and welcome to the Rebellion! So are some of your goals to gain weight? To maintain? (presumably not to lose...)

thedoctor Posted April 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2011 I'm looking to gain a bit of weight, gain endurance, gain strength, and generally turn myself into a more fit person. Quote Link to comment
Brometheus Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Welcome to the rebellion. Love the name and pic! Anxiously waiting for the new season to start Yeah, convenience food can be bad. Might I suggest GOMAD and perhaps a modified primal diet (lots of sweet potatoes!) instead? Quote Link to comment
Nion Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 If you're a hard gainer, you should talk to Steve Quote Check out my geek girl website www.strangekitty.ca Link to comment
