Hey there. I just opened an account here and have already learned a lot from trolling around the site. I really don't fit the build as most of you guys and girls do. I am kinda lean around 6' and 200lbs. and 41 yo. I run extensively for the most part, i am an avid swimmer, and when i am in the gym i usually do very high reps and lots of cardio. i manage about 1000 crunches/sit-ups a day and around 500 push ups and try to get in at least 5 miles a day. i am currently stationed in afghaistan, so my routine is kinda scattered and ever changing. my frame really doesn't do the whole heavy lifting thing. lots of broken bones and torn stuff throughout the years. it seems like i always have some injury i'm nursing so i stay away from the heavy stuff. but none the less i enjoy reading and hearing what you guys have to say, and am picking up on some good knowledge none the less. I have ran several marathons in the past but its been a while. i am thinking of getting into ultra marathons so if anyone else out there has any info or tips i'd appreciate it. my diet is right on. i eat really healthy, lots of veggies and fruit, and high amounts of protien if anything i am lacking in my fat intake. the only thing is i only sleep around 4 hrs a night or a day i should say we work most nights. so anyway i appreciate all of your input and any advice you can pass along to an old light weight.
