Hi [you] and welcome to ausbb

Hi all,

I'm Chris from Brisbane.

I signed up mainly to gain knowledge from people with far more than me.. Been training for fitness/strength on and off since I was about 16 (27 now) and have recently started training at home in the small set up I've got in my garage.

I've got a gun rack style squat rack with safeties, about 200kg of Olympic plates, mostly rubber, with a cheap Chinese bar, ez curl bar and Olympic dumbbells, a revolution fid bench, force USA preacher bench and a cheap POS lat pull down machine. Would love a power rack and decent lat pull down among other things but roof height in our garage allows neither.. I'm working on the wife for a back garage to set up as a gym but with a 7 day old baby, time and money make that a hard sell!

      It would also be a good idea to say why you joined Ausbb - Australian BodyBuilding - I am looking for a group I can join to do Bar Brother style training, motivation and make some friends.


      Do you have any goals in mind? Are you looking to start training? Are you trying to gain or lose weight? I want to build strength, mainly core.

- Training experience (if you have any that is) - Very Little, About 3 Months
- Any Interests - Playing Guitar, Golf, Camping/4WD, Kayak fishing, Watching any sport on the telly.

Why I joined Ausbb?? After having shoulder and upper back trouble, I was told I had a core weak and needed to strengthen my shoulders.
I took the exercises I was given by my physiotherapist, added a basic dumbbell routine I found online, cleaned up my diet a bit and the weight just fell off. Not that I had lot, mostly beer gut, “Skinny Fat” I think you fit people call it. 12 weeks on I’m pain free, looking and feeling good and thinking I’d like to step it up a little.
Cheers.

G'day everyone I'm Jo but my little niece calls me monter(monster) hence the forum name...lol. I'm 47yrs old 5'7" at 70kg. Started weight lifting on 2011 and now I am hooked. I don't go to gym instead I've set up at home not a fancy one but it does the job......NO one told me this is addictive ;)

Stay safe everyone and happy lifting!!!
 
Hi, I'm Laurence. Former distance runner but now I know better. 6ft4 and 80kg - skinniest guy here? Hopefully not for long :)
 
Yo! Mike here, from Perth.

Stumbled across the Forum researching barbells. I'm a big fan of functional fitness rather than fitness for fitness sake. The majority of my workouts up until this point have been bodyweight based, but now I'm starting to get serious.

I'm also a ginormous Star Wars nerd.
