My name is Jim Jones and I have been selected to help moderate the Health and Fitness forum. I couldn't be more excited!
To tell a little about myself; I am 28 years old, work as a software engineer and am currently engaged. I'm a voracious learner, consuming myself with whatever grabs my interest at the time. I’m probably a bit ADD and a bit autistic (self-diagnosed). For those who are fans of the Myers Briggs test, I am an INTJ.
So what qualifies me for moderating the Health and Fitness forum? I almost feel awkward admitting this but to be truthful, I am still on the path to becoming physically fit. I don’t have ripped abs or bulging biceps. I was physically active all through my youth but after college, I let myself go and before I knew it, I developed health problems due to my weight (extremely high blood pressure). I was actually hospitalized due to my high blood pressure which gave me the red alert to start exercising!
I am one of those individuals that must immerse themselves into whatever endeavor they choose, so along with my own personal program for getting into shape I developed a website that helps others develop their own workout plan.
So here I am, striving to get healthier and through these forums and my website, hopefully helping others to do the same.
I've enjoyed Steve's articles since the days of Dexterity.com and am extremely excited to be associated with such a passionate group of readers. I can't wait to meet everyone!
