Technically, I suppose I started in high school and junior high lifting somewhat while playing football. Set it aside for 25 years and came back to see what I could do. Wondered if I could gain muscle at my age and look good in the bikini bathing suit I had in high school. At about 238 I was thinking I wanted to loose weight also. Now that I am at 193-4, I am trying to rearrange what is coming off into muscle. The weight loss has stopped while other dimensions have grown.

I like changing my shape and my wife likes it also. I have gotten used to the multi-meal concept. My goals change from time to time. Time to slice off a bit more BF now.

I like the progress I am seeing with arms and shoulders. Hard to keep the shoulders out when I work on chest. My problem is comparing myself to others. Have no clue how I compare.
