Preferred Name: Tiki
Age: 24
Do you have a favorite sport or exercise? What is it? I'm a martial arts nerd. whee
Do you have a least favorite sport or exercise? I don't like jogging. stare I do it sometimes, but I never feel like I'm improving.
Reason For Joining: I created the guild because I enjoyed the conversations so much in the Fitness Camp '09 forum that I thought it'd be fun to keep the conversations going.
A Little About You:
I wouldn't call myself a health nut, exactly, but I do try to be conscientious about what I eat. My daily exercise patterns are a little unpredictable, too. Sometimes I maintain a routine for several days in a row, only to decide around day 6 that all the body aches are a good reason to sleep in and take it easy.
I love working out to music, and I have a few mixed CDs strictly for that purpose. I keep the selection varied, too, so it goes from stuff off of video game soundtracks to CrazyTown to the Pussycat Dolls. Just to make myself grin, the last track on all these CDs is the "Level Up!" sound effect from Final Fantasy XII. It adds to the feeling of accomplishment when workout time is over.
Otherwise: I'm going into business as a massage practitioner. I love to write and have written a couple complete first drafts of novels, plus several incomplete drafts. I'm in the middle of a couple second drafts as well, and have written some short stories. I'm kind of an anime otaku. I read a lot. Oh, and I love tea. If there is anything in all the world that can grant a sense of peace and calm, it is tea.

The guild is a great idea! Thank you for providing a place for such discussions. Now the waiting game as people will hopefully discover it!
Anyway, to follow Tiki's example...
Age: 18, bordering 19
Name: The 3-6, but it's really just 3-6 (read three six).
Favorite Exercise: Lifting and calisthenics in the legs. Nothing like a good leg burn!
Least Favorite: I suppose long-distance running, even though short-d sprinting, I'm fine with.
Reason for joining: If there are people out there who want help with losing weight, gaining muscle, and getting thin and fit, all while I can help, I'm here to aid them the best I can.
About Me, huh?: I am going to college for the first year this semester and am really looking forward to it! I am going to be a Cardiologist one day, hopefully. (I am torn between that and astrophysics.) And as a cardiologist, I love promoting a healthy heart in everyone. While not a strict dieter, I do love healthy foods and keeping away with the terrible ones. High protein, low fats all the way. More about me in the profile, but it's mostly interests and plugs for my favorite teams.
Go CAVS!

Hi all!
Preferred Name: Silk, or any other abbreviation of my username is fine
Age: I prefer not to share my age online, but I'm probably the oldest here. Sorry if that's a problem.
Do you have a favorite sport or exercise? What is it?: Walking, hiking, swimming, camping, and fishing
Do you have a least favorite sport or exercise?: I'm not into sports in general, but I don't mind sitting through a game, except football or hockey.
Reason For Joining: I'm trying to lead a more active lifestyle, and all the other fitness guilds talk about fatties or being thin. I'm not interested in being skinny, I just want to get down to a healthy weight and stay there.
I also like encouraging others in whatever goal they've set for themself and discussing exercise methods.
A Little About You:
I'm an IT assistant at a private school, I raise chickens as pets and for eggs, and in my free time I go walking and make plush toys.
My favorite colors are purple and silver, and my favorite foods are venison and fried eggplant.
I'm a product of the 80's - oops, does that give away my age? I love 80's music and tv shows, and I'm also a fan of retro videogames, especially NiGHTS into Dreams, for the Sega Saturn.
These days though, I'm addicted to my wii, especially the games that let me use my full body.
I also do some amateur voice acting and singing online.
I think that should do it, otherwise I'll be rambling for a full page XD

Do you have a least favorite sport or exercise? Not really.

A Little About You: I am an ex-English major now working for a bank. I joined Gaia for the writing sections, but lately I've been consumed with the need to get into shape. I've lost 12 lbs since the beginning fo the year, but I have a long way to go.

Preferred Name: Lucie
Age: 17
Do you have a favorite sport or exercise? What is it?: Yeah, a few: Weightlifting (love, love), running (love even though I'm not good at it) and soccer.
Do you have a least favorite sport or exercise?: None
Reason For Joining: I was hoping to find really good advice in here about losing weight and tips on running.
A Little About You: Um... I'm going to a military school in the fall: Norwich University. Gonna hopefully gain my commission into the United States Navy through college, so therein lies my need to get in shape.
I work out as much as I can, but I'm not particularly constant with it. I may do a streak of exercises for a week, then stop for... two and a half. Dx
More to come when/if I remember. =3

Preferred Name: Many people call me Damnzey, Nero, or Sephy.
(The first two are because of past/current usernames.
The other is because my friend and I did a lot of RPing together
and once I RPed Sephiroth and the name just stuck with me.)
My given name is Stefanie,
I don't mind if anyone calls me that or Stef. c: Age: I am eighteen-years-old.
I am five foot five.
I am one-hundred and twenty-two lbs.
My date of birth is cinco de mayo,
in the year of nineteen ninety-two. Do you have a favorite sport or exercise? What is it? I really enjoy jogging and walking.
I am double-jointed in the hips and because of
this I am extremely flexible, so I absolutely love doing yoga!
(and showing off/creeping people out while I do it!)
Do you have a least favorite sport or exercise?My least favorite exercise is the push-up.
However, that's only because I have limited upper-arm strength.
I've recently forced myself to do at least fifty a day.
Maybe once the work pays off I'll loath them a little less. Reason For Joining: I've been on gaia since 2oo5. I used to be rather addicted to it and I would be on it constantly.
Due to the stress of my senior year, I stopped getting on it as much.
Now that it is summer once more I have a lot of free time
and I've found myself surfing the web due to boredom.
I don't have a lot of the same interests online as I did last year,
because during my gaian hiatus my lifestyle changed a lot.
I love fitness and wanted to find a place in which I could express that,
as well as get and give some motivation. c:

Baseball

Hi guys .. I used to train Muay Thai and BJJ but I stopped a while back. I was thinking of getting back into it since I miss all of the physical exercise and the focus involved in training.

Nice to meet everyone. heart
