Woke today and was head to toe inflamed. Eyes looked like pee holes in the snow. Arthritis and red skin were outta control. No shingles. Took my Prednisone, Tylenol 650, and all of my suppliments with 2 cups coffee and a protein bar. After a looooong hot shower feel 99%. Alas. We do live better with chemicles. Just finished a turkey/avacado sand on oatmeal bread....mmmmmm.

Tomorrow I give blood which will cool off my RRBCs and lower my red itchy skin causing histamines. I will feel GREAT I know it. Gym will now not resume until Monday. That's 2 weeks. Good grief.

Timidly did a complete circuit training today. Mainly 2 sets ea body part on the Hammer equipment. Felt GREAT to be back in 'church' after some 2 weeks itching scratching and flu like.

Will do a circuit for about six days, rest one then do a few weeks of push/pull. Next year will start over with one body part per day...God willing.

Thanx friends. And Peter you ARE the man for the next Over 70 Pro Card. I am officially RETIRED from competition. I will be at best happily a gentleman Bodybuilder.

I have been posting in the Central section and John Hansen repeated 20 years later his Natural Mr. Universe win. Amazing feat. In the thread he showed the Ironman Mag results from 20 years ago. And there I was 2nd in the Over 50 Natural Universe. I forgot. I had taken no AAS for about 3 years and continued to age 55 when I crashed and diagnosed with Andropause resulting in HRT which I continue to this day.

So lets add ANOTHER freakin 2nd place to my competition history.

2nd place Mr. L.A. Masters, Mr. So Cal Masters, Mr. Cal Masters, Mr. America Over 40, Mr. Natural Universe Over 50, Mr. Muscle Beach Open, and NPC Masters National Over 70.

ENOUGH.

No offense, but that's a pretty darn good record IMHO.

[Baldiewonkanobi]

Thanks. My firsts are few and far between. Mr. San Francisco Over 50, Mr. Muscle Beach Masters, Mr. Muscle Beach Over 50.

I rest my case.

Sir, that is a record that anyone would be proud of. The only time I have won a first place there were just two of us competiting. It was in in powerlifting, the other was a 5th place and there were 5 of us competiting. I don't really like winning that way but when they hand you the trophy, what do ya do?
Just reading some of the things you have been able to do and people you have gotten to meet, is incredible. Your a very fortunate man.
