Quickdraw Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 Hey all. So I posted just a liiittle bit back about two years ago. I was really excited to get involved in this community, and then the IT Overlords on my ship decided I used too much bandwidth and blocked the site. One thing led to another and I never came back, even after I got home from deployment. This was my old self-intro thread, which is kinda funny to reread now. Going paleo on deployment took me from "I can never get below 182!" to 160 (+/-3 lbs) in a matter of 6 weeks. Sticking to paleo has kept me within that range for 2 years now, thanks to the dedicated help of my wife. I'll mostly "yada yada" the time since deployment, but suffice to say I spent way too much time at a desk, and not nearly enough time exercising. My pullups suck now (probably do 9-11 on a good day, which is terrible by Marine standards) and my run time isn't any better than it was when I was 20 lbs heavier (in fact, I'm fairly sure it's worse). Here's the objectives: -Back to 20 pullups-100 crunches in 2:00.-3 mile run under 22:00. That's a solid "first-class" (270 out of 300) and a reasonable goal to achieve by summer. I've got a 3x/week run plan from one of my junior Marines who ran track/cross country, I've got pullup plans I used to use that got me up to 22 back when. I guess I've come back a little late for the current 6-week-challenge, so this is kinda just me settling back into the community a little bit until it's time for the next one.
