Hello!
Feels wierd introducing myself now, seeing as i feel like i know most of you already from reading so much on the forum but here goes!
Firstly i'm a 26y old male from Stockholm Sweden.
In my younger years I was quite active with different sports, running, basketball etc. (mainly rollerblading/ice skating 3h+/day from around age 10-17).
At 17-18 I started running 4+ times per week for weight loss and just fun (dropped down to 69k and could run 2+ miles almost without breaking a sweat).
18-19 were army years. I had a pretty relaxed position with loads of "dead time" so I got in to body building with the rest of my squad.
I kept up going to the gym for a few months after my service was over (stopped on 97kg with under 10% body fat).
I was still enjoying lifting weights but something happend and I started getting various illnesses (was in bed with a fever or worse 1 week per month on avrage).
Going to the gym just wasn't an option any more since I got a fever the day after every time.
I've since then gone under the knife 3 times for seperate things (throat, wrist, colon).
This kept going untill around 6 months ago when it just.... stopped.
That coupled with a 1 year celebacy vow( 10 months and counting!) left me with a crapload of extra energy.
So here I am, ready, willing and finally able to walk the walk!
After messing around with my old rutine for 2 weeks i got tipped about this site by a bud and after 1h of reading there is no going back. Ever.
Today is the first day of week 6 and, like always with this program, I can't wait to get to the gym!
In other words : THANK YOU MEHDI! This site has been a great inspiration and source of knowlage. After reading the e-book, web site, forum and various other articles I feel my knowlage of the human body is up tenfold (still miles to go before i consider myself competent, but its a very good start).
Special thanks to James and H, it's almost at the point where i scroll down the forum posts to check what you guys said before reading the rest. Keep up the great work!
