/Also found Traineo via Lifehacker

I'm not what I'd consider an unfit person as I cycle and/or run 5 days a week, and hike on the weekend. I do, however, eat really badly hence I'm about 20kg too heavy at the moment. I'm looking to rectify this and have started on a program of basic weights for my shoulders, plus ab exercises and push-ups.... I've also decided to make a full-on effort to try and sort out my eating. Using the motivators within Traineo should help

Hoping to see some results soonish

Good luck all!

Hooray for LH sending more people over here!

Stick with it and make it a lifestyle and youll see results I'm sure of it.

Thanks Rob, Daniel and Chris for the greeting. I find myself pretty much like Daniel. I bike offen (12-18 miles), have not lifted weights in about 1.5 years and also hike around with my dog. My eating has been bad, but I have now cut my portions down which is good, but still eat not-so-healthy foods. Yesterday, after reading "The Best Tech Tools and Fitness Plans to Get in Shape" on LH, I got excited about exercising. I found myself searching for new workout music and last night I took my dog to the park like I usually do, but this time I actually ran around the park for about 20min and then walked for about 15min. I usually just stay in one spot and throw the ball or frisbee and watch my dog run. I had a lot of fun. I should always run with my dog.

Welcome, Newbies!!

Let the hazing begin!

I also found traineo on lifehacker last night. I'm currently in College and am over weight. My goal is 200lbs and I currently weigh 232lbs. I currently go to the rec center 3 times a week and lift weights, ride the bike, and try to run, but still get tired out easily running. I started my work out regimen at the beginning of summer and have already lost 10 lbs.

Congrats on the 10 lbs Evan!
