    You know, when I was 21, I thought 50 was a "grandfatherly" age and the beginning of the "senior" years. All the sports stars then (and now) were washed up by 35, maybe 40, if they were exceptional. When I retired from BBing at 32, I thought I'd never be able to do better, or even equal what I had accomplished to that point.

    When I turned 40, my mind and energy were both still existing in my early thirties, and I found that curious. My mom turned 60 when I was 44 and I asked her how it felt. She said, "Like a 30 year old trapped in a 60 year old body".

    At 47, when I decided to make a comeback in bbing, My best hope was to acquire the condition I ended with at 32. I had that mindset up to my first show at 50, in 2007. I competed against one gentleman from Oklahoma, who was 2 years older than me. And was big, hard, ripped to shreds....better than I had been in my 20's and early 30's. It opened my eyes. I had limited myself with a prejudice towards "old" age. The day after that show, I decided that I would no longer think like a 50-something. I would think like a bodybuilder, period!

    Yes, it takes a little longer to recover. There are nagging old injuries to work around. But I've busted my ass every day in the gym like I could stand on an Olympia stage. And it has taken me past what I accomplished by 32, and I'm still growing. The knowledge we have about diet, AAS, and training has leveled the playing field. I take full advantage of that.

    So 52 is just a number. I'm the biggest, strongest man in the gym and get due respect for it. I have young guys constantly approaching me, asking me how long I've trained to get the body I have. They ask for training advice, diet advice, and occasionally, hormone advice. I have women ages 21-60 regularly remark on how good I look in more than a "you look good for your age" way. I was even hit on by a 21 year old on my flight to Columbus to see the Arnold.

    Moral of the story? Don't let anything limit you, especially age. You can accomplish much more than you could dream of with patience, perseverence, and the will to push past perceived barriers. Go for it!!!

    Amen my brother!
    Had a young man about 19 years old walk up to me in the gym today. He asked how long I've been working out. I told him 38 years. He looked puzzled and said you mean you're 38 years old, right? No I said, I started working out when I was 14... that was 38 years ago. That made me feel pretty darn good!

    Excellent posts! I love the way you guys think!

    I know what your mom means esplendido. I feel the same as I did at 20...just more experience and a little wiser (hopefully). That's one of the great things about bodybuilding. You can get better with age. I'll never stop.
