Elora Posted January 9, 2017 Report Share Posted January 9, 2017 Hi, Newbie here. My sister suggested NF as a basis for getting back in shape, so I thought I'd try out the forum too. Typical cardio junkie throughout my 20s, though I did some strength training as well back then. Grad school happened + marriage, and I really slacked off. I'm now in my late 30s with no strength to speak of. Weight hovers just around the upper BMI limit for healthy. I'd like to lose fat weight, but equally important to start building muscle now to make my 40s and 50s better in quality of living. My nerd qualifications fall in with my job (molecular biologist) and random sci-fi likes, though I'm rarely a dedicated tv series follower. 1 Quote Link to comment

Hobbitron Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 Hi ! try starting with the nerd fitness body weight workout! You can do it in the comfort of your own home and increase sets/ reps as you go. It's a nice base to increase strength. Quote Link to comment
