While in high school I used to be in Cross Country. Even when it was out of season I'd run around 2 hours a day, willingly, without anyone telling me anything. I'd also work out another half hour before going to bed, doing such things are stretches, sit ups, push ups, just a light work out to get me ready for sleep. However, after finishing high school... -sigh- I don't know what happened. I haven't done anything physical in several months. I'm going to grow fat, and that grosses me out.

Even though I'm literally ALWAYS working out, whether I be at home, work, or the gym..well, there isn't much of a difference between all of those anyway! They're all health related. Though, cross country is INSANITY. You seriously need some good endurance for that.

@flln723: bout time you got up and running, eh?
@GourmetPrince: I've got a checkup on Thursday with a trainer, so I should be able to get the info you need. Sorry about not replying earlier.

I never ran like that again, he did it his entire Cross Country career in highschool.
Btw, you wouldn't happen to live in the Dallas Metroplex would you? I've been needing a trainer for my job, and I don't know when my next real chance will come, so I could always use the time to improve myself.

Awesome, let me know if you need anything.

I climb stuff - like trees and ropes. Does that count?
I'm also an above-average good swimmer. But I only get around to it when it's really hot outside - and preferably at night, I hate sharing the water with other people - so it's basically only a bunch of hours a... year? That probably doesn't count, too.
I always wanted to go to a gym on a regular basis, but - thanks to my spine - I'd probably land in a wheelchair the moment I open the door.
Diet, let's see. I'm pretty much eating whatever I want, it's just that I don't really eat much of it. For example, my meals in the past 48 hours consisted of a greek salad and a chicken soup. I'd say I've got a pretty good control over my appetite, making weight control easy. I'm just not really muscular, which I'd like to change. x[
