Hi all. I'm a n00b.
Here's my situation (I realize there's a fitness forum, but since I'm completely new to this, I'd rather stick to the place for the newbies ).
New Years rolls around and this is the year I lose the weight.
I have *a lot* of weight to lose. A lot. We're talking "Biggest Loser" a lot.
Anyway, in addition to burning off the fat, I want to raise my general fitness with a focus on training for being dive ready. Obviously, I have to start slow, but as the weight starts to come off and my general fitness increases, I want to transition into a training regimen that is diving related. My goal- and reward to myself- is that by this time next year, I dive.
I realize this is an unusual situation, but has anyone ever been down this road before? Or, can any experienced persons give any suggestions as far as how I might want to proceed here?
Thanks for any help. You'll be seeing me around here quite a bit.
