Smallzfry Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 Hello, rebellion! So I've been a lurker on the NerdFitness forums for a couple years now, and I even had an account at one point. However, while looking through the Terms and Conditions more closely, I found the clause that states that you have to be 18+ to post on the site. At the time I was only 16, so I stopped posting and just read the emails that got sent out. I'm 18 now, almost 19, so I figured I'd start a new account and start fresh. The reason I started a new acccount instead of using the old one is because the old one seemed really misdirected, and I've changed my fitness goals a lot since then. So, a bit more about me. To start, I'm an 18-year-old college guy. I've always been more than a bit scrawny, although the past few years have changed that. For a while I focused more on distance running, but I realized that I want to pack on a bit more weight first. I'm about 5'6" and I only weigh 130 if I've had a good meal. I've started going to my college's rec center with my roommate to do weight training, so I'm on the right track (from what I've read so far), and now it's just a matter of motivation and support. I've seen how welcoming you guys can be, so I'm glad to make it back. It feels good to be part of the rebellion again. 1 Quote Level 1 Elf RangerSTR: 2 | DEX: 2 | CON: 1 | STA: 2 | WIS: 2 | CHA: 1Current quest “But weakness can imitate strength if bound properly, just as cowardice can imitate heroism if given nowhere to flee.†- Dalinar Kholin, The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson "A man's emotions are what define him, and control is the hallmark of true strength.

Smallzfry Posted February 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 Thanks for the welcome! I think I have goals figured out for the 6-week challenge, so at least I'm doing something to figure out long-term goals. They're not very concrete at the moment, but I want to figure out what's realistic and what isn't. Hopefully I'll work those out in time.
