I'm actually a continuing education provider for the American Council on Exercise, and certify other trainers around the country, and also train with bells about 3 to 5 30 minute weekly workouts, far from a "gym rat"Yes! Kettlebells! I've got a small but growing collection (2x 15#, 2x 25#, 2x 30#, one 35#, and one 45# ). Nothing like throwing around a giant ball of metal! Should see some of the looks I get in the gym when I'm warming up with a kettlebell

Well THAT explains your avatar...Way early... Being a fireman for 22 years kinda wrecked my sleep cycles.
That's awesome, I'm going to have to PM you later - I love my kettlebells. Since I sit at a desk 45 hours a week, I try to get to the gym 3x a week and do additional exercises at home (with my KB's) and running outside from time to time - dropped 35 pounds in the past 2 months actually (cut beer and soda out of my diet and started drinking WAY more water)I'm actually a continuing education provider for the American Council on Exercise, and certify other trainers around the country, and also train with bells about 3 to 5 30 minute weekly workouts, far from a "gym rat"
...have been balding since I was 18 lol curse you father!
You owe your dad an apology. The male pattern baldness gene comes from your mother. That's why they tell you to look at your mother's brothers to see whether you'll have MPB.
I always buzz my head cuz I hate going to get haircuts
This is when I grew up:
The universal cassette tool!
Max number of joints rolled for one party = 47
Number of roaches swallowed = 13
Max lbs of weed purchased at one time = 11
Number of HS stoner girlfriends = 2
Shoe size = 13
So...
47 - 13 + 11 - 2 + 13 = 56
I am 56 years old
19-25 bracket.
vaping for 5-6 years now..glad i started when i did.
so much simpler than trying to cut a decent longer doo,

If I let my hair down I might trip over it. I have the hairline of a 20 year old. But alas it is turning gray. But seriously I can do a killer "cousin IT"! It is past my waist!I had always heard that too, but my mom's dad had a relatively full head of hair when he passed in his 70's, her side of the family also in general just have more hair.
I definitely fall under this part though:
"This research suggests that heredity of AGA is X-linked; however, research has also shown that a person with a balding father has a significantly greater chance of experiencing hair loss. Men whose fathers had experienced hair loss were 2.5 times more likely to experience hair loss themselves, regardless of the mother's side of the family, which may suggest Y-linked heredity plays a role."
I am my father's son lol, there's a huge resemblance in our facial structure, notably we both have the @DieHard hair:
I just shave it though, I've come to accept it. Actually, it made me a bit more then $100 a few weeks ago as I was called to do extra work as "Aryan Brotherhood" member lmao. They filmed "Southpaw" around me last year and my face was on file; never followed through with it, but they actually hunted me down, for my lack of hair, for some show called Banshee on Cinemax. It was very fun lol, I got to hoot and holler around topless women at a big "Nazi" rally, was able to give the leader a good YEAH BROTHER!! *brohug* after his speech, and got swastikas tattoo'd on my dome. So, there is always an upside to everything in life!
Genetics though, pretty interesting stuff. I have my mom's side of the family's kneecaps lol, ie: not really defined/treetrunkish. Both my dad and my brother have a defined kneecap. My brother has been blessed with a fuller head of hair, but he is like 2/3 tones lighter then me, guess I sapped up the Italian/Mediterranean blood with the baldness I also have my dad's nose ( A "Roman" nose) and my mom/brother share a lot of facial similiarties.
Not trying to derail to much though
It's been said to death a bit, but I also am a fan of the more mature crowd around these parts. Make's for a better discussion IMO, people can have differing opinions maturely, and while we are welcoming to new people, there is a certain expectation for FC that I feel everyone wants to uphold, and we will be sure to let someone know they are not! I like that we are quick to point out when people get out of line or are not living up to that standard.
@Bravesst thank you for your service!! My aunt was actually in one of the smaller towers when the plane's hit, she was there for an interview! Needless to say, craziest interview ever. My uncle was in NYC that day too (wasn't a usual thing), prior to meeting her, small world. Can't imagine what it was like for you; that is something they both shy away from talking about other then walking across the GW bridge because of the chaos.
