What's up gentlemen/ladies/whatever you feel like. Stopping by to make my FNG debut. Hope everyone is having a great 2017. Excited to be getting back into the fitness aspect of life. As for me....

BF%: Not sure, gonna measure that this week with my DR., but I do know that it's too high for my liking, after 2 3/4 yrs of inactivity
Labs:
Have had high BP (180/118) in the past. Probably due to prescription Adderall (30mg daily). Currently taking Propanalol and Hydrochorathiazide to regulate BP, and is working. Posted attachments to tests results for x2 Comprehensive metabolic panels, x2 Adult male testosterone lvls, lipid panel, and Hemo/A1C. I take my physical and mental health seriously, so I have my doc run tests about every 6 months.
Goals:
1. To learn. Just like technology, sports advancements, military training; I am sure the supplements, tactics, methods, approaches, and gear have all changed a bit since I was really active in fitness. I'm here to re-learn from anyone willing to share knowlage, experiences, and advice.
2. Re-shape. Not just my physique, but my approach to life. After getting hurt and retiring from the military, I found that I missed a certain aspect of that lifestyle. The Drive. The drive, and purposeful mindset of those around me. The drive to push themselves, and others, to be better. I know the fitness community has that, so I joined up here.
3. Become an athlete again. After the injury, I lost A TON of speed and quickness. (Even at 34 y/o, and after 10 trips overseas, I was still running a 4.70 40yd) I was in competitive softball prior to the military, and want to get back SOME of my ability.
Basically, I just want to go out and compete in whatever I do. Whether it's in the gym, on the mountains hunting Elk or bear, fishing for an entire day in a bass tournament (which I love doing), or going out and dominating an old guy softball league. I still strive to be better. Sorry for the long post. Just threw it out there so people know where I'm coming from, and that I'm not some complete phony who has no background knowledge whatsoever. (Have done many successful cycles in the past, including PCT.)
Anyway.... Much repsect. Have a great day and I look forward to learning from, and chatting with, you all.
