Haha, I'm 11th on the leaderboard.

of page 1183!~!!!

That is one reason I started an ACF group. At least then there is a little more personal camaraderie and a smaller leader board instead of being in eleventy-billionth place. Would work if we had enough of the fitness minded, or at least those that want to try, join up. I don't mind being blown away by those that try harder or are gym-rats. At least it gives me somewhere to post what I do so it is obvious to me when I am slacking and I can't make excuses.

I have no idea how many aceffers are in to fitness. My guess is 5 tops, counting us. Hopefully several more people join.

Doesn't really have to be ACFers as much as just board/internet people that want to try to get fit. A support group of sorts which is what fitocracy is supposed to be for anyway.

I just called it ACF. I guess I should make it public. I made it private and invited the people I threw invites at just to see how it worked.

EDIT: It is public now you should be able to search and join it.

I was using Fitocracy but then I got a hip injury which stopped me from running for now. So I'm using stair machines, row machines, lifting, etc., and it can be a hassle recording all that. Writing down miles was easier.

I'm in. Will start messing with it tomorrow.

Anyone else click the routine tab and find it blank?

Damn that arrow to the, uh, hip.

I can see how it would be annoying. I am working on some kettlebell routines plus bag work and the like (jump rope, speed bag, heavy bag) and it seems like it would be a lot to enter. It looks like you can make routines then it is pretty much one click to record the routine as a workout. At least I hope it is that easy otherwise, yeah, pain in the ass.

It looks like you build that yourself. You know make your standard routines like 15 min jump rope, 5 min speed back, 50 min heavy bag, etc then save it so you can just one click when you work out. That is my assumption anyway since I just signed up this weekend and haven't really used it yet.
