When I Started:
Jan, 2006
How I Started:
Always slender, I started gaining weight in my early 40's. Sporadically trained for several years. After minor surgery this summer and limited activity, a picture of me on the beach made me take note of my physical condition. Started regular exercise and diet changes and am beginning to see some results.
Why I Love It:
Energy levels are up, clothes fit better, and a general sense of well-being. I have to be honest and say the "pump" is addictive.
How I Stay Motivated:
Positive comments from wife and what I see in the mirror!
BB Accomplishments:
Just getting started in earnest!

At some point this past fall, I injured my left elbow resulting in tendonitis.  After numerous attempts to address it myself and the pain not diminishing, I consulted a physician specializing in sports medicine.  The initial treatment was an elbow brace in concert with some...

Workout Program:
Hiring a reputable trainer was one of the best things I have done. He has provided clarity and focus and helped me set reasonable goals. I am currently on a Volume and Density program that is comprised of two routines of three exercises each. For each exercise I do ten sets of 8-10 reps...

Thanks for your rating and comment on one of my pic's. And you are correct with one of your comments being that the "pump" is addictive.

As someone who has a six pack at sixty and maintained that I have found that what you have to do is keep the metabolism going by eating small meals and using a fat burner from time to time. I think the new product Betastax by Bio-Quest is the best. russyoung/oldsage

Re: comment on my equipment. It was my wifes idea that I buy most of the stuff. I was in terrible physical shape 2 years ago and she was worried I would "expire" early like my dad did. So, we would go to sport stores and she would actually say, "could you use this or that". And she has started using it too. Said she didn't want me looking sexy and then running off with a young "hottie". Yeah, only in my dreams...lol
