robertt Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Hello from sunny Southern California!My name is Rob and Im 19 years old (turning 20 in a couple weeks)I was a high school wrestler who at the time was in the best shape of my life. When i got out of high school my original intentions were to join the military but life likes to throw curve balls at all of us. The recession hit my family hard so i got a job at a neighbors engineering firm to help support my family. We are in a much better place now, so i feel its time to follow my dreams and enlist (as soon as i can get my weight down). At my best I was 200lbs flat with 15% body fat, now I'm around 245 and probably 25% body fat. After reading everything Nerd Fitness had to offer I took the plunge and bought the rebel fitness guide. My goal is by May i have my weight at the standards set by the military and finally enlist.Sorry for the book but I'm so excited to be taking this step towards my dreams.Thank you everyone and good luck to you all on your journeys!Rob Quote Link to comment
