I'm 51 yrs old been training about 30 years. Never been on stage or really had a desire to. the pic on the left was my senior year in high school, 1982, I probably weighed 150 soaking wet. When I started training I weight about 175-180 in 1985. I guess you could say I was your typical hard gainer. Currently I weigh about 170. I don;t get on the scale much I go more by the mirror and how I feel. I feel I look my best at 150-55 but I like to eat to much. lol I train 4-5 days a week depending on my knees. I have arthritis in my hands and in my left knee that gives me fits from time to time. Ortho tells me I'm to young for a knee replacement and my knee joints have good spacing and tightness it's just the ostocytes from the arthritis so he gives me steroid shots as I need them and I get Synvisc (silicon lubricant) every 6 months. Other the arthritis I am in great health and I just keeping trying to defy age.
