The avatar pic is showing some fine definition--good progress from your 2007 shots

I haven't counted calories for months, but I'm going to have to. I just got told by a doctor to not put stress on my fractured wrist for a month--no bench presses, pushups, etc. It's going to totally goof up my metabolism. Good luck with finding that "balance."

I'm impressed with your balanced outlook on life, particularly the "Be the best person I can be" motto. I'd think you'd be quite a religious fellow too. God will be with you in your life to guide and direct you through prayer. He's surely been there for me.

Good luck with your contest. Self-discipline will always get you to your goals. Thanks for noticing an old fellow like me.

Ben, thanks for noticing an old guy like me. Keep me informed as to your progress.

Your May pics are really impressive. I'm sure that the April 2010 comp will find you holding a trophy. Keep up the good work. You're staying natural, aren't you?

You are one big fellow! Picture that body at 10% in a few months. You can do it. Get that motivation. Level up, though.

Let me know how I can support you in your goals. Even though the MuscleTech contest is not going to happen, you can still set your own timeline. That's what I last fall--the goal was to be in show condition for my 62nd birthday. You can do it too.

Thanks for noticing an old guy like me. Good luck with your continued fitness goals.

I've been supping with BCAAs for a couple of years. The new iSatori Amino supp sounds right up my line.

Welcome to the GF group. Sorry I didn't notice your joining sooner. Jump right in with some ideas. We have a forum on our body-group page, so start a new thread telling us about how you have succeeded in your bodybuilding as a Celiac.

Thanks for posting some of the results of your trip to Calf. The results are great. So do they act as your agent, or do you have to do your own job hunt?

Dec 3, 2009 10:15pm

Nor do you look like a Masters class. Congrats on your great 2009 competition stats.

What would take a young buck like you to an old man's profile? Thanks for the kind words. Good luck with your goals.

I'm sorry to hear of your loss. Be confident in a life after death, and in God's eternal plan for each of us. What we think is best, is not always that way. (Isaiah 55:8-9) Nice pic of you and the baby. I bet you're a good father.

That avatar shows some pretty defined muscles--back especially, and those hams!

Dec 1, 2009 11:54pm

Just noticed your job doing Silver Sneakers. Be nice to us old guys :)

That was kind of you to check up on me. I'm pluggin' away. Sprained my wrist last week rollerskating with the grandkids, so that's been a temporary glitch--just cardio and legs for a week. But other than that I'm on target for a return to my beach body by January--3 weeks in Brazil! Best to you too.

Welcome to the GF group. Let me know of any specific recipes you might like. I've been eating GF for 3 years and I've learned a lot.
