Aetheriata Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Hello I'm new to the site and also pretty new to working out. Haven't decided on what would be the best class for me yet (though Scout or Ranger seems good... But so does Assassin, so ) So I'm guessing here should be my first stop Still not sure how to navigate the site completely... Quote Link to comment
Noname123 Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Just click around and stick your nose everrrrrywhere! That's what I did anyway and it worked out pretty well What are your goals, what do you want to train yourself to do? That will help you decide on a class! Until then you can start off in the Rebel forums and then switch to the Adventurers if you still can't decide. Even if you don't know where you belong here there's always a place where you'll belong! Welcome, welcome Quote Spaz Ranger BATTLE LOG You can have results or excuses. Not both Link to comment

Welcome, welcome Thank you very much! Goals, right. Uhm, I want to lose about 100 pounds. Well. 80 by now, just about. I want to get fitter. Right now I'm the "do 10000 steps a day, throw in 30 minutes of body weight training a week, go to a fitness-kickboxing class once a week, and maybe use your Skates once a week" type XD also trying to stay at 1.500 calories per day.

Noname123 Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Ok, those are physical/get moving goals and those are GREAT...BUT....what do you want to DO? Scale walls? Do handstands? Pick up ridiculously heavy weights? What is impressive to you. What makes you look at someone and say "WOW, I really wish I could do that!"

I... haven't thought about that, I guess... I'd like to move without getting out of breath, wear pretty clothes, and maybe one day be able to show myself in a bikini without getting "THOSE LOOKS"? 1 Quote Link to comment

Start thinking about EPIC things too. Things you never imagined you'd do but would love to. Start working towards them and you'll get there!

Flagwaver Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Welcome! Though, I would suggest that you not stick your nose everywhere. I mean, we all do workout. In all seriousness, try your hand at a number of things before settling on a class. I started out looking at Warrior, but my mind is changing now that I'm getting back into shape doing primarily calisthenics.

Start working towards them and you'll get there! Hm... Like... Finishing more than two courses in the Tree-climbing park in the next city? Kicking over someone's head in kickboxing class? ... Skydiving? Welcome! Though, I would suggest that you not stick your nose everywhere. I mean, we all do workout. In all seriousness, try your hand at a number of things before settling on a class. I started out looking at Warrior, but my mind is changing now that I'm getting back into shape doing primarily calisthenics. Got it, no sniffing What is calisthenics? I always loved Martial Arts (hence the Kickboxing class. Well. Fitness-kickboxing. Hoping to change it up later.), but I don't think I'm really interested in bulking up. And parkour isn't very popular here, I don't think. Though it would be cool to climb a wall Maybe I should stick to getting back on my Skates for now I always enjoyed watching women with runner's build the most. 1 Quote Link to comment
Aetheriata Posted April 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Okay, apparently I'm an idiot and posted two different introduction posts by mistake This is the actual Introduction Post And this post was supposed to be something along the lines of "whine whine I don't know which class to choose whine whine" Sorry >.< Is there a way to combine posts?

Flagwaver Posted April 13, 2016 Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 Calisthenics are body weight exercises. Push-ups, sit-ups, jumping jacks, dips, those sorts of things. Quote Introduction | Character Sheet | Body Progress | Battle Log | Epic Quest Challenges: I Link to comment

Kicking over someone's head in kickboxing class? ... Skydiving? What about an epic trip to Singapore for a tree climbing adventure? https://forestadventure.com.sg/ See how much you like kickboxing and see if you think it's something you'd like to get certified in....or even compete in. Think big, get excited!!! Quote Spaz Ranger BATTLE LOG You can have results or excuses. Not both Link to comment

Think big, get excited!!! Wow. That one would be one hell of a vacation! *saves it for possible future* Well, first I'd like to get more into Kickboxing itself, but competing... Well, yeah, that could be fun! Thank you! 1 Quote Link to comment
Aetheriata Posted April 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 Still thinking this is not the right place for this as I already have an introduction post. Could this topic be moved? To the weightloss section maybe? Quote Link to comment
