Introduce yourself

[SFLifter]

Well, I live in San Francisco, 24 years old, 6'3 at about 185 lbs right now. I've been training for almost a year (sadly enough I was at 170 lbs a year ago!) -- I don't know my BF but it's probably around 12-13%. My current goal is put on about 10 more lbs of lean muscle and lose the ol' college beer gut. Love this site... I'll be hanging around a lot in the coming months!

Alright I'll play.

age 27
height 6'2"
weight 290

I have been lifting pretty seriously for about ten years and did some lifting for about four years before that.

My goals:
Be competiteve in powerlifting, Strongman, and the Highland games.

Currently I work as a geologist for a natural gas exploration company. I want to go back to school and eventually teach at the college level. For now I am happy to just be a meathead.

CHeers,

This seems a lot like personal ads to me, but here goes.

Age: 25
Height: 6' 4"
Weight: 240 lbs.

Been lifting for 8 years, playing rugby for 1, snowboarding for 12. My majors were Applied Math and Computer Science and I am working in tech support now. I can verify that Scotsman is a meathead

This seems a lot like personal ads to me, but here goes.

Wait, can I just post a link to my Yahoo Personal? It says alot about me, and what I'm looking for in a woman.

Hello members of the Board.

I've been parousing the boards the last couple days. I posted my idea for a routine and got a great response from big4life, whose advice I will put to good use. I'm glad I found this place, everyone seems cool and willing to help eachother a lot. Very refreshing! And I think it will be an inspiring group to be a part of.
Anyway, I am new to the world of caring about my health and fitness. I'm 28 years old, 6'0", 189 lbs. (down from 198 2 weeks ago), and in overall bad shape. My main hobbies are golf (ex golf professional -not professinal golfer!- and still hanging onto low single digit handicap), reading, writing, poker and video games.
My main goal is very simple: I want to start losing fat and gaining musle, basically "get in shape".
Goal number one in order to attain that: eat right and exercise CONSISTENTLY. Make it a habit.
Getting started and making it a habit is a very tough step for me (I've tried before), and I am hopefull that these boards may help tip the scales in my favor a bit.
I've started by working out with DB's in my home, and taking what I eat seriously. I want to get more serious and structured with the weights and start running. I'm even considering trying to train for a marathon. Though that is getting ahead of myself a bit.
It's been two weeks now and I have at least lost a bit of my gut, and I have confirmed that I do, in fact, have muscles.
A lot of your posts have already helped me out immensely, and I hope I can offer something positive back to the boards in the future.

Cheers.

This is getting really frustrating. I've been a member here for a week now and every day I have been trying to post a new thread, but for some reason it won't work.

How do I contact the admins? And are they responsive?

What happens is I click the submit button and it stalls for a while and then suddenly I get a blank screen. That's it! Then when I go to look for my thread it isn't there. Also (and this is the strangest part) when I try to post the new thread again it tells me I have already posted it within the last five minutes (but it never appears).

This BBS looks like the best fitness BBS on the internet. I really want to participate here, and I believe I have a lot to contribute to the community.

Someone please help.

Thanks,

Emanuel

Great to have you both on the board, SW2green and Emanuel. Welcome!!

Emanuel Ill reinform the administrators that you are still having this problem and see if we can get it fixed so you can post! Others are having this problem too and administration was still working on it last I checked. I had this problem until today, so you might want to try it again today and see if it works.
