I guess the first post is always going to be the hardest.
First things first - this is entirely off the cuff, and I really don't know where this is all going to go - I certainly don't plan on any kind of fame.
So before i publish any kind of manifesto, I guess I should just try and outline what it is that I'm trying to achieve with this website.
The Average Man Experiment all started a few years back when I was talking to some friends about small ideas that we didn't know the answer to. We all know that water is good for you, but what would happen if you cut out all drinks (coffee, fizzy, squash) and just had water for a month? Well curiosity took over and I did it - and there was a difference, both visible (my body) and also with how i perceived my temperament to have changed. We also did a short experiment on walking around with some weights attached to our ankles but that only lasted a week - but it was enough to capture our interest. We had NO scientific background, NO formal qualifications in a specific field, just plain old human curiosity.
So the idea to push out the results of my experiments has really spun out from the idea that it would be fun. It should keep me motivated by setting targets and hopefully i'll be able to get some ideas generated for future experiments.
So that is the first post - done - not so hard!
