Ok, I’m in.
Truth told, I have been somewhat apprehensive about this, am not really comfortable posting pics.
But I have come to appreciate and respect this t-nation community a lot - and if so many of you can do this, so can I.
As you can see, I am not exactly slim. I have been overweight for the majority of my life and have the past few year fluctuated between 113-115 kilos.
While I could benefit from loosing some weight, I am actually pretty ok with being on the heavy side - as long as I am also reasonably strong and reasonably fit.
I can certainly live very healthy and be much slimmer (and have done so in periods of my life), but as the years pile on, I have more or less concluded that there is more to life than looking good. And if one can’t enjoy the good stuff in life (craft beer in particular), what is it then all worth.
That said, taking these photos, make it kind of obvious that there are room for some improvement.
Body goals: Change my body composition: loose 5-10 kilos, while continuing to lift and hopefully add a little muscle and some strength.
(I have the weight loss thing down, but have never tried it while simultaneously lifting semi-seriously. Will be interesting for sure.)
