First post here, as the title says.

37 yr old from Ohio, the cess pool of America. Used to lift fairly regularly but the last 12 years have been non-active, with only coaching my kid's sports as an activity. Therefore I've gone a bit down hill.

Currently 6'2" and 250lbs. I look exactly like some out of shape ex-football player, to paint a picture. I probably should be 225lbs, for a start.

About 6 weeks ago I started to ease back into the gym and re-introduce my body to exercising. Since then my weight has stayed right at 250lbs but I have dropped some fat and added some lean mass. In time I know my gains will taper off and my weight will drop.

My goals are more weight loss oriented, but I do it with higher tempo workouts, supersets, etc. to keep my heart rate going. I'll do some cardio but it pains me in a boring sort of way. As the weather gets a bit nicer I can get on my bike and ride for some cardio.

Anyway, glad to find this place. I'll cruise through the other forums to see whats what.
