gregb Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 My name is Greg and I am a new Recruit. Starting tomorrow, I am going to begin getting my back into shape. I used to be in decent to good physical shape throughout college and when I was in the Army. Currently I am defining what my short and long term goals will be throughout my journey. In approximately 6 weeks, I will be running in a 5K with my wife down in Walt Disney World. This run will be far from anything to write home about since I know I will be slow.Right now, I know my first goal to be down 6- 8 lbs by February 1st. This I think will be doable using the Rebel Fitness Guide. I plan on also doing some more research on the Paleo diet. Right now, I do not think it will be feasible for me maybe I may begin some small other adjustments.Thanks for listening.Greg Quote [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]Orc Adventurer STR 2 | DEX 2 | STA 2 | CON 3 | WIS 4 | CHA 2 Challenge Link: http://www.nerdfitness.com/community/showthread.php?13235-gregb-s-first-challenge Time to Rock!

gregb Posted January 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 Thanks. I am reading the Rebel Fitness Guide and the Rebel Diet Guide and learning how to do the exercises properly. It would be useless to progress further injured.

ebm1224 Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 welcome to the community! i would recommend a couple things first off: (1) try tracking what you eat for a couple weeks to seewhere improvements can be made. alot of people like paleo and certainly give it a try if you want but often there are other less severe changes that can be made initially to help out with your goal and (2) personally, having weight loss goals just doesn't work for me. focusing the goals on actions like "i will work out at least 3 times per week" seems to get me more excited and motivated.

gregb Posted January 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 Thanks for the advice. I have gone back to using Weight Watchers to help track my food intake. This worked in the past. Once I ensure I understand the exercises, the spreadsheets that came with the Rebel Fitness guide will be a big help.
