You know you are old when:

Your knees buckle and your belt won't.

Your back goes out more than you do.

You sink your teeth into a steak, and they stay there.

You know all the answers, but nobody asks the questions.

Man you are so old you must have wrinkles on your teeth?



You're not bloody old man!
46yo is only young

Although you may feel older because you have'nt been in te gym for 15years and have let youself go.
I will never do that.
I'm 7 years younger than you,theres plenty of guys around here older than you and I.
Welcome so Meso

Man it's been over 22 years since I got my first gym memebership in '87
Me and my older bro used to do weights at home for a couple of years when we where around 12-15yo,lol
Its just something I have to do.
All up I have had about 1 year off ,a few months here and there.Most of the time has been without the use of steriods.I did one cycle pretty young and used for a couple of years in my mid 20's.
Lately I have been using gear{last few years}because I know now that this is what I do ,this is me.

Not sure what you mean about 'What is your feeling' but basically what happened is that some really bad shit happened to me and pretty much put my life on hold for a while. I was very into working out and am so glad to be back in it. It's never too late for anything in life.

I used them for a half a year about 15 years ago but I had no idea even what I was taking. Am going to try again but this time with some knowledge.

Another thing about being in the 40's which is a surprise is that my mind anyway has opened and I am wiser. It is true for me that the 40's are excellent. I would never have believed it in my 20's and 30's. Amazing eh.

Your not old, its good your back at the gym and starting to work out again. We welcome you to these forms, any questions just ask. This site has a lot of good information in here, and lots of good people too.

If you're old then I must be antique.

I'm 47 with 24 years of training under my belt. First joined the New Orleans East Gold's Gym in August, 1985. And iron's been pumping in my blood eversince.
