My general idea for this thread is for it to be a place for people (like me) who have some jrock/VK odds & ends that they want to get rid of to pass them along to others who may want them. So everyone that has some old flyers you're never going to hang up, or magazines you really don't need taking up space on your shelf; post away! If there are any 'rules' they are: 1. You can only charge shipping. 2. No posting an offer to buy something after it has been claimed. If someone posts something, they've committed to giving it away. 3. Only claim something if you want it for yourself, don't try to resell something somebody gave you. (I certainly can't police this, but c'mon, don't be a jerk) Everything is spoken for... thanks for the help cleaning everybody.

We all see fashions and styles that we would love to have ourselves, but style can come with considerable work sometimes. The goal of this thread is to promote exercise, getting in shape, constructive feedback, and provided the motivation needed to achieve the healthy look you’ve been wanting. Did I mention you can win free VK stuff? Because you totally can. How it works Make a post with your fitness goal and where you are now. Pictures of what you are shooting for can help others visualize what you want. (Pictures of yourself are completely optional) Post updates! What have you been doing for your workouts? Have you noticed any positive changes since you’ve started? Everyone who posts at least one update each week will get one entry into a drawing at the end of the month. More details on the drawing and prize below. Want a second entry each week into the monthly prize drawing? Those who provide regular constructive feedback for others will receive another entry into the monthly contest. Feedback should be polite, but it should also be critical. Feedback that only consists of “Great job!” doesn’t really contribute much, suggestions for improvement and areas to work on are examples of great feedback. Lastly, we are using a bit of an honor system here. If you didn’t do a workout, don’t post and say that you did. We’re all trying to improve and support each other, let’s keep things positive. Now for the part we’ve been waiting for. The FREE STUFF! A winner will be randomly chosen at the end of each month using a random number generator. Once chosen, I’ll look at the last.fm profile of the winner to determine which prize they get. THIS MONTH’S PRIZE IS A CD DONATED BY RAREZHUT. Seriously check Rarezhut out (www.rarezhut.net) for all the CDs, cassettes, DVDs, and VHS you have a hard time finding elsewhere. They ship internationally, provide sample clips of the stuff they sell on their website, and have a great “fuzzy” search system so you can find what you are looking for. Possibly the best part is that they provide a CD with digital rips (using professional-grade equipment no less) of all VHS and Cassettes that you buy since not everyone has a VCR or cassette deck. Plus it’s run by our very own Biopanda XD --------- I've tried several different workout trackers and logs in the past, but my favorite by far is Fitocracy. It has hundreds of exercises in its database, so adding them is a breeze. The biggest feature (and my favorite) is that is makes working out into a game. You log your workouts, get points, level up, complete quests such as running or biking a certain distance, and it's all free. There's the social aspect too. You can join groups, friend other Fitocrats, and even challenge others to duels. There's an optional paid membership called "Hero mode" and individual coaching, but the free features are still more than amazing https://www.fitocracy.com/ Our very own MH group on Fitocracy https://www.fitocracy.com/group/19063/?about
