Health and Fitness forum? What do you think? Sporting advice and latest news, health nutrition and diet, that sort of thing.

This isn't a topic that comes up on a regular enough basis to warrant a whole new forum.

While I'd like one, there's no need for another forum to discuss it. But maybe a private one, if there's enough interest.. Umm.. I'd support that idea. A radical sports private forum 8)

We have forums sticking out of our ears as it is. It isn't that popular a topic around here, apart from the occasional brief thread. I say no.

I don't believe there is sufficient traffic to warrent another forum pertaining to Health and Fitness.

While we're at it, let's start a Hamel forum

It'll be about dolphinsechs, Rodney King, and Lyndon Larouche's merry band of ice cream men.

Speaking of, whatever happened to that idea? I remember Alex Moon suggesting it a few months ago and there seemed to be a reasonable amount of interest in having a SDN book club.

I see absolutely no need nor point to it nor is they're enough traffic on the issue to even warrant a private forum. As for a book club, do you really even need a forum for that? One thread in of topic or the Brotherhood of the money ought to do and then if you do find you need a forum later on its much easier to justify it.

I bet half the people on this board couldn't do a single pull-up.

I am quite athletic, but, unless this involves the shooting sports, hunting, and fishing, then no.

I can do thirty five non stop, usually do three series of twenty everyday while on vacations, when I can't go to the gymn. I have no idea if that's good or not, many of my MTB friends can do fifty, a fact which tends to piss me off.

Are you sure we are talking about the same thing here? The numbers you have given are insanely high. I am of course talking about where you hang on to a bar, pull yourself up so that your chin clears it, return to the hanging postion with your arms fully outstretched, and repeat.

Well then, assuming you're near my age (22), 35 at a time is not great, but is probably better than average.
Last time I tried I knocked out over 70 in one stint.

I'm 24, and I hate you :lol:

On the other hand, it's good to have some goals in life..
