	2005/04/11, 02:55 AM weight training at ANY age will yield great dividents....it's by no means easy....as you get older you have to alter your exercising to adjust to your body....resting more and taking more days in between....your body recovers slower so you must take precautions as much as you can and use good form...it's even more important when you get older because an injury will take longer to recover from if you tweak a muscle or whatever else might happen....so keep this in mind...

I had a flat tire. I didn't have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from outta town. Someone stole my car. There was an earthquake, a terrible flood, locusts. It wasn't my fault!! I swear to God!!

As the great one (Arnold) would say "Your too old not to start!" -Arnold's Encyclopedia a.k.a the bodybuilding bible Keep on working out, if you haven't starting then start working out. Take care of yourself. You'll only get better from now on if you start taking care of your self physically. :)
