edited September 2024 in Introduce Yourself
I have been on the site for 10 days or so and I am looking to meet some exercise friends (male of female) in the Austin, Tx area. I am just transitioning from a lumbering sloth, so currently I cant run a marathon, climb a mountain, etc. I would like to start out slowly and work my way back to a more vigorous routine afte dropping 25 lbs or so. I enjoy walking, swimming, bicycling, trips to the gym, etc. I am a 8 to 6 M-F person, so this needs to be in the evenings and weekends. I have a road bike and a mountain bike. Member at 24 hour fitness. I live in RR, but will drive DT if required.

Also looking for motivational friends, so send me a friend request!

    Greetings from a former sloth. Also a member at 24 HR Fitness. I came across a boot camp in the Austin area that I love. They have morning and evening sessions. After going through three personal trainers at Golds Gym and 1 personal trainer at 24 HR Fitness I have finally found something that really works. Working out with others and keeping motivated seems to be the key and does not require taking out a second mortgage...those personal trainers are soooo expensive.

    Check it out.

    Luis Hernandez, the personal trainer at 24HR Fitness at Parmer is awesome!!! Expensive but worth it.

    You should look into the Austin ridge riders as well as biking and other exercise groups at http://www.meetup.com . There are lots of weekly ride calls for both in Austin. They range from beginner to advanced with a very good biking community here in Austin.
