What do you think about people who "grunt" loudly while working out? Do you do it?
You have to take it on an individual basis: If its an "attention grunt"-go home. If your lifing heavy, more power to ya.

Okay, I know I'm not the only older one out there that "used to be" buffed out and age got the best of me.  Between promoting to a desk job and getting lazy in my old age I went from 205 lbs and 12% bf to a whopping 260 in about 4 years.  It's time to make a come back.  I am...

I stopped by to say way to go and to wish you nothing but success as you continue to work towards your fitness goal. Too many people think it can’t be done and so they don't even try but you have proven & are continuing to prove that with hard work and dedication it can be. I look forward to watching your progress. You are a great inspiration to so many others. Stay strong, focused and determined.

Thanks for the input. Just the other day I had learned something about the body type I have and its an endomorph. It goes to explain that my body has a high insulin output, low thyroid output, and an increased appetite with a low sympathetic nervous system. It explains to cut carbs and bulk more on protein and keep fats up to supplement the loss for carbs. I think its begining to pay off.
