Brief summary-At 14 years old I weighed 178 lbs at 5'4,all fat.Through weight training and diet I transformed myself to a fit muscular 135 lbs at 16 years old.I continued that lifestyle till I was 21 years old and my passion for music and playing the drums was too strong and I became a active drummer playing 4 to 5 night a week while holding down a day job as an electrician.A musician's lifestyle is not condusive to a healthy lifestyle,and fitness wise,I went down the drain.At 35 years old,I knew that if I continued this lifestyle I would not live to see my 40th birthday.I went back to weigh training and healty habits and regained my former physical condition till I was 58 years old.At that point I began to have health issues that prevented me from continuing my training.Withouth going into all the details,it was my thyroid,and it messed me up untill 2 years ago when it was removed.I have weighed 175 lbs since then,and it's not pretty.Ab
out 2 weeks ago,I became fed up with my situation and decided that I was going to get back into training and get back into shape or die trying.Much to my amasement,I responded to the exercise like I did before my health problems and now I back in the grove.I will be 70 years old in july.and my goal is to see just how far an old guy can go. I know that this information is more than most everyone cares to know,but if it can motivate just 1 person then it will be worth it.Thank you for your indulgence.
