I used to be young, fit & fast. Now I'm older, fatter & slower. The demands of high pressure career, raising 2 young kids and the siren song of the Taco Bell drive thru have all been excuses for my expanding waistline. I recently realized that my excuses won't help me be active with my kids, let me look good in a tshirt or keep me from an early death.

Now I've given it all up in a quest to be the fit & strong father my kids deserve. I'm focused on eating clean, HIIT & bodyweight exercises. I've been on this path for about a month and it's going great!

I'm 40 and live in the suburbs of Chicago. I've got 40 lbs to lose and lots of muscle to gain. Add me and we can kick our own *kitten* together!

    You sound like me in all the same ways. I'm 35 fatter and slower than I have ever been. The month of July was full of work travel and lots of eating out. The scale was not kind to this guy! Good luck!
