I haven't got the interest or attention span to "work out", but I love being active in outdoor sports. Kayaking, climbing, mountain biking. But for me it's about being social too. I used to have a 20min bike ride home that I hated. But I could go urban riding for a couple of hours with a friend.

In any case, hopefully you can find an activity that you enjoy and can do easily enough.

happened in 6th grade for me

here is my plan for the first month or so:
1 hr/day 5days/week bicycle (way to work)
3/week lifting weights + 30 min cardio
cut down on drinking coke (just on weekends)
drink ~3l water a day
I want to start jogging in a month or so when the weather gets a bit warmer.

weight lifting goal for this year:
bench press 225 8 times
i am going to add goals for other major lifts when i have them figured out

Yesterday I pulled a two miler and did a little arm work with the dumbells. Gotta get my homework completed today. Hope to get in some more exercise this evening.

Today I ate a fajita taco salad and a ton of chips and salsa. I guess I'm skipping dinner as a result of this big meal. Weigh in is tomorrow.
