Platzhalter Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 After answering to two threads, I thought it would be polite to introduce myself before posting more. So, this is Platzhalter... a 23 year old (trans)guy from Germany.As I'm not yet able to get certain treatments, being fit and strong is one part of my journey to being more of a man - it's not about forcing stereotypes on someone else, but it definitely is what I want for me. There's also one part of me that is quite a bit nostalgic and clings to a past. Another reason to get toned again, because that is who I was and actually still want to be, regardless of my sex/gender/whatever.Being able to do more than just 10 lousy crunches, push-ups or pull-ups. Swim 50m in far less than a minute, and swim more than just 400m in twelve - being able to do the latter without any training reminded me of my old potential. Of a time when daily cycling was something normal. There's also something else about that time I really miss - good grades at school. After not being able to graduate this year, it finally occured to me that I have to change my attitude towards studying. Things get more complicated and even smart people can't just be lazy - everyone has to pay attention and needs at least a little discipline. Not to mention that a clear and strong mind is just as important as a clear and strong body. Knowledge is power... so why not go for it?

Tanktimus the Encourager Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 Welcome to the rebellion. Sounds like you have some good goals in mind and some good self awareness, the beginner body weight workout is a good place to start.
