    Met a real cool 56 year old dude the other day - the guy looks better than me, no joke - leaner & heavier @ my height


    Had to ask him a bunch of shit - guy started lifting hard along with juice when he was 50


    His .o2 was that "we"(most of us at least) are jumping on at too early of an age

    If I live to be 50 I will have jacked arms and do burnouts in my wheelchair because I will be on all kinds of crap.

    I took my first steroid injection at 17 years old (I'm now 42). but it ended up bad and I took a near decades long break before starting again.. had I stuck with it all those years since 17, I'm sure I would have a way way more impressive physique then I have now.

    Thats what i’m Saying. That 10-11 year break I took from gear was the stupidest thing I ever did.
    If I’d have had a “Gearheaded” to guide me when I was 17 i’d be a fucking worldstar right now. Now I’m just an old man trying to run up the down escalator

    I thought I was the only one...

    Stopping gear and lifting... Wth was I thinking!
    This is proof kids cant make life altering decisions for shit.
    "No... F them steroids lifting and strange vaginer. I am gonna sign my life away to this bitch I cant stand and have kids."

    You know I distinctly remember my family telling me steroids were bad. Hell they still do.

    Dont remember one of them saying getting married young and having kids would screw my life up.

    I didn’t get married or have kids and I’m no happier than you. I realized a long time ago that no matter what happens in my life or what I have, Eventually I level out at my baseline of misery lol.

    this makes no sense to me . if he is jacked at 56 years old after 6 years of lifting and juicing .. then surely he would be much more jacked after 20 years of lifting and juicing had he started earlier . heck he could be a dexter Jackson had he started earlier.
    makes no sense why he is attributing his good results from starting later in life rather then earlier

    How does this not make sense?


    Who gives a shit about how jacked you looked for 20 years if you atart at 25 & pop your back at 45?




    A guy who I used to workout with for years just blew his back - he's 43, made me look small - started in his early 20's



    Exacty what the older dude said - we want it now, asap - we can't wait & build slow(and he is no diff). . . . I got to my own max potential within 3 years, blasting all year - going from a flabby 170 to a hard af 200. . . . That would take a decade to achieve without massive ammounts of sauce. . . . . And, this is how most of really do roids. . . . One cycle, life long




    The whole generation we're in is completely wrapped up in the too far too fast lifestyle








    But, what do I know

    well starting at 20 and making it to 90 is ideal ..


    look , when your 25 years old all you care about is 25 , not 40 and not 20 .. so you might as well do everything as optimal as you can to make the most out of your being 25 . when your get to 50 , make the most out of being 50. thats all you can ever do . yesterday is gone and tomorrow is not promised

    this guy started training at 50 and he looks great at 56 . thats awesome.
    but who knows what he may of missed out on being a loser pussy ass little bitch in his 20s and 30s. it no longer matters. all he has left is today and its good he is making the most of it. but if he could go back in time and be 35 again, why wouldn't he also chose to make the most out of it then as well.

    his idea about being a "late bloomer" is not necessarily noble in any way to me . basically he's just saying he was a loser most his life and didn't get his shit together until he turned 50. which is good for him now ,, but he cut his old self short

    I think the whole argument boils down to, "What do you want?"

    If you want something exceptional you wont get it being safe.
    You are not safe.
    You will never be safe.
    You may die tomorrow.
    Assess and act and act with all you got or you wont get it.

    Btw... I made that video after taking down a tree over a mans house who's daughter was raped and murdered by a police officer. She was one of three victims.
    Even ten years later the old mans voice was cracking talking about her.

    For a short time I get to know a lot about patrons to my business. Its amazing how many lost someone young who played by all the rules.

    You are gonna die. Might as well pursue your interests fearlessly. Be smart but don't get caught up on "what if".

    You’re right on that, there are no guarantees. That’s the worst, when it’s an innocent girl. I watched an episode on ID a while ago where there was a cop serial killer that raped and killed a bunch of girls by pulling them over on the highway. Wonder if it’s the same one?

    Point made, for sure


    It's just tough for me to see people around me fall one after the next - and, so far - it's all self caused, and everyone is pre 50. Seeing someone in their mid 50's being alive & intact is a mile stone arounf these parts
