I'm a 33 year old total failure at life. One of the only things I have going for me is that I am very big and strong being 6'1 290lbs at 30% bodyfat. Despite my bodyfat I have very good stamina; I have been training MMA, tennis and weightlifting for most of my life. I also have some experience with cutting and sawing down wood as I go on dozens of camping trips a year.

I was thinking if I quit drinking and lost some weight I could maybe take a go at this sport and finally turn my life around. Is this possible or does the correct technique really take a lifetime to learn like most sports?

I don't think you'll make enough money to live off timbersports.

Try it out. Find some shit on YouTube. It should definitely be possible to learn the technique, it's not like these people were chopping wood and using chainsaws since 5. Issue would be that unless you have tons of wood lying around the training is going to be awkward, you also need some armor for your feet and shins.

go to basque country and live cheap and do timbersports and stonelifting, sounds like a good life

It would be better if you became a forester and paticipated in timber sports at the same time. You would promote your brand and find clients there.

Reduce that to 15% bodyfat and do what this guy said >>224300 but the real $$$ will be from your shirtless instagram account where you plant trees and chop wood and shit

Not even joking, this is how you make money in current year

be sure to ,also ,try the Scythe Fair championship!!
