I got introduced to the "universal' gym in 7th grade and I've using weight training ever since. I used my college gym after graduating but after moving out of state it took a few years before I saw my body change and so i got a gym membership in 1986. It wasn't until 2006 that I decided to get hard core, well ... hard core for me. I began stressing my muscles more and then found out about the 5x5. at 50 yrs old a man has to do what he can to counter the effects of aging and muscle mass loss. the better I get, however, the older I get.

stay lean men, cuz i's much harder to reverse years of "settling down". marrying a good cook and having kids can do a lot to ruin a perfect physical specimen ... :-)
