I just wanted to say hi. I am brand new to this forum. I don't know why I never signed up here before, I know how many great people are here and how great Jesse was in so many ways. I am not new to training, but obviously still learning everyday. I'm 6'7" about 290 right now. I am a former basketball, volleyball, football player. Got into basketball refereeing but have had a foot injury for god knows why, no one is being aggressive enough to fix. I'm 27 years old and trying to find my way here. I really just fallen in love with the strongman culture to be honest. I am nowhere ready to ever compete or anything, guys like poundstone, ortmeyer, nee, give me a break they'd press me for reps. I respect though and love to train like one. Great feeling front squatting and then ending the gym session with farmer walks out in the street while every person in our neighborhood scratches their head and say why in the world would anyone want to do that, haha. I am willing to learn from you guys and spend sometime here reading. I wish everyone well. God bless the "Sequim Crew" and Jesse of course.
