I'm Corey, and I'm from Massachusetts.

A 2 months ago, I had a little bit of extra fat laying around in the lower stomach area. I was 5'11 (maybe 6 feet) and 165 lbs. When I started to work out again, I dropped to 160, and now I'm up to 168...So it seems I have lost 5 lbs of fat, and gained around 8 lbs of muscle.

Currently:
Corey
5'11/6'0
168

My main goal: To get cut for beach season this year. In the past, I was more concerned with hanging out with friends and playing basketball. Now, my goal is to be in the best possible shape my body allows.

To future posters: Welcome!

[Rylinkus]

Height: ~6'0"
Weight: ~195
Goals: Just get in overall better shape. Less fat, more muscle. I've really let myself go having a few injuries that sidelined me (Torn Rotator cuff and torn hamstring) Just trying to rehab and get back to where I was more comfortable with my condition
Fave Exercise: Not sure if it is the most popular choice, but absolutely anything biking related.

Height: ~6'3"
Weight: 210

I started to work out heavily about 4 years ago, and I've been going anywhere from 6 days a week if I'm lucky to 3 or 4 if I have a busy week since then. I've been real busy recently and haven't had time to go a lot and I've admittedly not eaten the healthiest so I've added a little bit of weight.

So my goal as of now is to shed that excess body fat, which is mostly around my midsection and get somewhere under 200. Once I get that I want to refocus on lifting and really work hard to define my chest and shoulders more. A 6 pack wouldn't hurt either. After that, just go as far as my genetics can possibly take me.

Favorite exercise: Hammer curls. Don't ask me why, I just love doing them.

And congrats to the die hards of the Fitness Thread, now we have our own forum! And welcome to all the new posters!
