Hey Everyone

Brenn · 05-01-2008, 11:32 AM

Hey All,
I was doing some research online and came across this site. I read a bunch of posts and was impressed by the knowledge, friendliness and empathy of you all.

In my experience, the best people I've met have been athletes and soldiers, so can't say I'm surprised.

I hope I can add to the vibe here, with more of the same.

I'm from California originally, but moved to Central Europe for a life change/fun, 4 years ago, and I love it.

I've been an athlete all my life, most seriously for 12 years as a shotputter and hammerthrower, so lots of olympic style lifting, at a weight of about 265. Now just 215 (cutting now for summer!), I've been fighting (amateur) and straight bodybuilding for about 6 years, love that too!

My goals are, of course: to get stronger, harder, better symmetry, more wind, and to be basically life-proof!

Thanks for havin' me!
Brenn

Welcome! What an interesting array of interests- I always think it's fun here that people have different athletic histories and goals. It sounds like you'll fit right in.
