For a beginner

I have a friend whose only physical excersize is pushing pencils at his desk job and holding his newborn baby. The man literally has no physical excersize whatsoever. He told me he wants to start getting into shape but can't afford a gym membership. I suggested pushups, sit-ups, running, dynamic tension-- The whole nine yards. I watched him struggle to do 20 pushups and then pant and sweat. I'm not sure what to tell him. Even before I started working out as a priority, I've always done manual…See More

AoM site FAQ or customization tips

Anyone out there know of articles on how to use this site most efficiently? I don't see any sort of FAQ or tutorials.As an example, I noticed that there are a few guys on here that are very good at keeping up with many conversations, and I'd love to here your tricks.  It seems to be tricky to keep up on what's read and what's unread, for example.  I didn't see an option to customize the color or weight of visited links, nor does there appear to be an unread 'orb' - anything really.Are you guys…See More
