Don't worry, you don't get big by accident. It's not like you are going to wake up one morning and be like "OMG, where did this extra 50 lbs. of muscle come from? That wasn't there yesterday!!11"

I only wish it were that easy.

Not everyone on WBB necessarily wants to be big.

It doesn't work like that? What the duece.
 
It has my vote. I've gotten helpful info from reading the weight lifting and fitness threads here. Having its own section, would make my researching much faster. We would probably get a lot of new hits/traffic from it too. :light:
 
This sounds like a really good idea that i'm sure many people will support. the last fitness threads that we've had have been huge with lots of people posting, asking for help and so on and yet despite this, most small threads get lost in the ATOT junk. besides, we need to change the geek stereotype of either very weak guys or guys with too much mass. (i don't mean to descriminate the gals. as IIRC, nissangurl is part of TallBill's contest as well).

Seems to me like all the senior mods, Derek and Red Dawn like the idea. let's make a stickie with a poll and decide from there. i doubt many people will be against the idea.
 
Derek can we take some proactive measures? How about a sticky in OT about this, and since it was promised (although I think everyone will want to keep them) a poll about the garage and LR forums.

Let's get a poll going and then hit a few buttons and add this forum. You're missing out on more traffic everyday. 🙂
 
About to ditch satellite TV in favor of a gym membership. Now would be a perfect time for a health and fitness forum for me. Since this is mainly about me, you know 😀.

Seriously though, could we get a yes, a maybe, anything?

So what's the process involved for adding another subforum? Because this is taking way too long.

All the sub forums were reorganised by Derek after the update. He's now AWOL so I wouldn't expect anything to change soon.
