so i have been sitting on this account forever. it seems like i was getting periodic emails from realjock but never really reading any.

i am tired of putting off getting back into shape, so once i opened one of those many realjock emails, i found there is a ton of great information in here :)

i am going to start the 12 week Strong and Lean program soon. i am going to be joining the Y in the next few weeks, but might get started earlier using what little free weights i have here at home.

i did the body for life for about a year, about 4 years ago. it was awesome, i lost about 25 pounds and my over all body shape was much improved (nothing close to the 'before and afters' in the book though). if i had kept it up, i can only imagine where i would be right now. but, same old story, work got busier, school got harder (drive-through's s got easier!). but no more excuses, i am heading back in the right direction.

check this out:

i am interested in hearing from guys that have made big changes in their lives with help from realjock, or elsewhere.

i'd really like to hear from people in my physical situation (overweight) or people who used to be and how they got out of it.

i am also very interested in swimming. i might even pick up a new suit and start doing some laps one of these days. any one out there have experience with swimming as part of an exercise plan?
