Before 312 exactly 10 months ago. Today 247 on my way to 200 for the Mr. America October 7-8th Showboat hotel.

Thirty years later everything is different, everything ! Training, diet, supplementation but more importantly proper sleep, getting natural sunlight first two hours of the day. No longer several small meals throughout day. No breakfast to extend the fasting from overnight. No carbs early in the day then train early afternoon. Sixty minuets tops no matter what. Studys prove test and dopamine levels drop after 60 minuets of high intensity training. Biggest change not training for strength but hypertrophy...

How's the BP?

Used to be stupid 240 over 140. They wanted to send me to ER and put me on a drip it was so bad. Four drugs Liisinopril, plus 3 others gave me all kinds of side effects especially muscle spasms. After dropping 60 pounds off all meds. Bp 123- 82

Only hurdle now is hip replacement surgery May 31 2022. 6 weeks recovery that gives me 2 full months to blast the legs. I hope muscle memory still remembers when your 63. I have senior moments why not them ?? LOL
