Maybe it's a bit late in the game to be attempting to build muscle mass, but, damn it, I'm sick of having grover body and avoiding taking my shirt off in the presence of another human being! (Grover body is skinny all over but with massive mid section. NOT attractive!)
A couple years ago I had some digestion issues and went on an insane diet, losing 40 pounds. It didn't solve my problem, and hell, at 140 pounds I was way too skinny, so I began to eat sugar and fun things again. I felt better! My symptoms subsided. Hooray! A year later I had gained nearly 50 pounds and got as fat as I have ever been in my life, approaching 190 pounds.
So, I have begun to train. And basically feel like a piece of damp cardboard set in a snowy driveway which has been warn down repeatedly by the wheels of an SUV. IT HURTS! 
I'm writing this blog to sort of make this more serious. Now I can't wimp out.
Note to bodo and jchot: make sure you get your child, when the time is right, to do some form of solid physical activity because it sucks to have to do this in your late thirties.

Good luck fredo. I recently started an excercise regime too. Every other day i jump around in the basement, watching a DIY video of aerobic instructional screengrabs set to jump-up jungle and bootybass tracks. super sharp shooter!

Sorry I didn't read the rest of the comments but
- Rock climbing worked real well for me. I'm kind of a loner, and rockk climbing is like chess + yoga + wieight lifting. Perfect sport for intellectual gentlemen such as us.
That's just me though - The true point is - find something FUN for U and do that, it'll sustain itself better

I've seen crazier workout threads on other EM/IDM boards actually. Never would've guessed that.

unfortunatly for all of you i was blessed physical perfection. one time i tried to gain weight by going on an all cake diet, it didn't work out for me. really i think the main thing is i ride a bike to work; eleven miles, five days a week. and i would rather eat kale than candy, and i like water more than soft drinks.

i went on an all-cake diet once when the only food i had to eat was a giant pan cake with a printed sugar picture of the laker's threepeat. keaton still likes to quote me saying "all i've been eating is cake. my core body temperature is too high"
