tonym427 Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Seeing how we have threads for men and women, I thought I'd start a thread for those of us still in High School or just starting off College.It would be good to see how many of us there are, and we would be able to give each other moral support and be more familiar with each other's situations.Let's start off with giving our age, our current fitness status, and our goals.Age: 18W: 210lbs H: 6'0"Goals: Lose the fat around my sides, be overall healthier and stronger than my classmates:highly_amused:Current workout: Stronglifts 5X5 3X/week with 25 minute HIIT intervals after.

Rush Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 So do you guys live on your own, or what?I do, yeah. It's pretty awesome to be in complete control of the foods in my apartment, and having the ability to go to bed/wake up without distractions from roommates, parents, or siblings.

161803398874989 Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Ah, I still live at home. 30 minutes of travel TOTAL between the front door and the university. I also get to play the piano really loud when no-one's home (freestanding home), have a big backyard where I can workout and when I come home, my meal's already cooked. ^^ There are quite a few downsides, though.

ReveilleWolf Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 I live with a roommate here, usually if she wakes me up it's because she's video gaming late into the night. But it doesn't happen too often. Quote I wanna be the very best.. Link to comment

Fryinbox Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 19 year old male here. Goals are to get prepared for Basic Training for the Army next summer. Long term goals are 64 pushups in 2 minutes, 72 situps in 2 minutes, and run a 13:42 2 mile. I got a year for this happen, and I'm slowly working my way there. I'm trying not to get TOO wrapped up in the appearance aspect of this. I forget who said it, but I remember reading a quote on this site along the lines of "Appearance is a side-effect of fitness," or something like that. I'm just trying to become physically capable of these things, and if that makes me look freakin amazing, then even better! But I will agree, looking at myself in the mirror and seeing my jeans too big and my abs start to appear is a great feeling.Getting my own place in August of this year, and with that comes a free gym membership. That excites me as well. Hope with this group of people here I can get a good network going. I'm anxious to start seeing results, and hearing about you alls successes as well! Quote Current life goals: Eat Paleo | Work Primal | Find a Job | Relax | Get more sleep April 2012 goals: 10 Chin-ups | 45 Push-ups | Cut out sugary snacks "The 'amazing' can only be created by facing fear, risk, and failure during the process." -Joel Brown "A brave man is not a man who is not afraid, but one who's will is stronger than his fear." -Unknown Link to comment
gerbilOFdoom Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 17 year old high school. Currently 120 pounds and trying to just bulk up in general... but I hate cooking SO much. Quote Link to comment
Corbab Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 At least I'm not the youngest one on here...I'm 17, 6'1", 200lb, and currently ditching fat and getting ready for the crew season (which is now only a week away). I live at home, but staying Paleo hasn't been too hard, and my workouts all happen at the gym at school. Being the only one who eats like I do, I've gotten to be a much better cook really quickly. Quote Never think of pain or danger or enemies a moment longer than is necessary to fight them. -Ayn Rand Amongst those less skilled you can see all this energy escaping through contorted faces, gritted teeth and tight shoulders that consume huge amounts of effort but contribute nothing to achieving the task.

BookLoverL Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 I'm 18 and in my last year of school, living with my parents. Then in late September/early October I'm going to go to uni. Quote Lvl 1 Dúnadan Ranger "All that is gold does not glitter." Link to comment
Korosia Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 Hi all I'm 18 and just started my last term of first year at Uni. I've always been the typical underweight-weakling nerd, but I've been working to change that. If my predictions are correct, tommorow I might manage my first set of pistol squats, and my goal is to be able to do a one-handed push up by the beginning of October. For the guys who are living on there own, is anyone else having trouble resisting the chocolate/sugar binge sessions while trying to finish work on time? Quote Link to comment
Guest Tigger Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 For the guys who are living on there own, is anyone else having trouble resisting the chocolate/sugar binge sessions while trying to finish work on time?lol, absolutely! well, I'm failing more than succeeding, but I'm hoping to change that when I move off-campus. It's hard to find a balance between having 'study snacks' in the room and not having a kitchen. I'm moving during the summer to an off-campus apartment, so I'm looking forward to having a kitchen that I can actually use and lots of good, healthy snacks My roommate uses trail mix and raisins, but I'm a picky eater so I'm kinda stuck Quote Link to comment

I'm moving during the summer to an off-campus apartment, so I'm looking forward to having a kitchen that I can actually use and lots of good, healthy snacks Can I please just say that this is the story of my life, only with pretzels, beef jerky, popcorn, and cheez-its instead of chocolate. I've always been a sucker for salty things, especially when I'm tired--which is always now that my sleeping schedule is damaged due to working until 3am twice a week and going out on the weekends.Next year I'll have a bigger fridge and a kitchen (and no basement vending machine) so I'm going to store lots of healthier things there for when I inevitably get the urge to eat, haha.But for the record I'm 20, 5'3" and ~150lbs, lifting 3-4x/week and trying my hardest to eat high-protein and git too stronk/also I meant to quote both quotes but only quoted one #fail sorry lol Quote Link to comment
