FML, getting raped by military press. I knew it was a bad idea going squat -> p.clean -> m.press rather than squat -> m.press -> p.clean. Tricepts totally gave out on last rep and I failed



On a more fun note, I found a place right by the gym that sells raw milk O__o

Hi there. I had a pretty intense self realization over the last few weeks, and it's led me to make some pretty significant changes in my life. I'm probably not going to be updating myself in this thread every week, but I do want to put down what I started at.

There is so much information at the front of this thread that I'm going to go back and read it all, but I wanted to get this down first.

Age: 27 || Height: 6'2" || Weight: 315lbs

Starting Date: 03/22/11 || Goal Date: 09/22/11

Weight goals -- I want to be much skinnier in 6 months. I've always been a 'big guy', but I didn't start getting 'fat' until ~5 years ago. I've honestly never attempted to go on a diet before. I've never been to a gym. I simply don't know where to start, so I choose to start with Cardio, and lots of it.

Training goals -- I've started out walking 2 miles a day every day this week. I plan on doing that every day for a month. Then I plan on jogging that 2 miles every day for a month. Adding more distance when I feel comfortable, eventually to at least 3.2 miles. Then I plan to add riding my bike to work every day it's nice enough to do that out (10 mile round trip).

Nutrition goals -- I don't have specific nutrition goals yet... I currently work overnights at a gas station, and before this week I'd drink ~100 oz of soda a night easily. I've more or less quit that cold turkey, replacing it with coffee and water, and getting by fine. I still think I need caffiene somehow, and coffee is the 'most healthy' thing I can get for free. Aside from that, no more fast food, much less snacking, and smaller portions around the board.

Misc goals -- 5k fun run in the middle of September I plan winning. Ok, not winning, but I plan on doing my best in it.

Quit Smoking. I smoked ~3-4 packs a week, but I've been clean for 7 days now, and have very little desire to start again. I don't foresee this to be a problem.
