Return to Training after long vacation

guitarlove Posts: 10 Joined: 2001/11/01	2001/11/06, 02:00 PM Greetings to All, My nick maybe Guitarlove, but I am AKA John R. I am going on 51, and just starting to train again after about a 25/26 years vacation. Not that I haven't been doing nothing, but I was pretty close to being a CP. Anyway, feels great to be back with the weights, and FT really looks like they set-up a good program for me. I'll spend the energy and time and work the program hard... My stats: Age 51, Wt 237, Height 6'1", Neck 17.5", Waist Err can I fib..nah won't do it - 41" gotta measure the arms and chest not sure.... Anyway, I hope to lose about 40 lbs, and reduce waist to about 32 to 34" and add a couple (or more) inches to arms and chest and shoulders Hope to see all on the boards.. Thanks, John R.

I found the book, "Body for Life" by Bill Phillips and it really helped me with the diet and how much to exercise, etc. I lost 80lbs of fat and gained over 20lbs of muscle in abuot 11 months. (38lb of fat in the first 3 months) This sight has been very helpful in my ongoing training and new lifestyle. Good luck and happy training. Eaglewills
