what I,m talking about is my diet,in terms of bodybuilding.I,m 6' 235--I,m 50 yrs old,been lifting for 2 1/2 yrs and have made incrediable gains--from 15"arms to 18 1/2" and everything else respectivly.My biggest gains came from tuning up my lifting-use to be in to 'cosmetic' lifting 5x a week than I hooked up with some one and for the last 2 yrs been lifting low volume and heavy weights--and have been in a '20 rep squat and deadlifting mentality'--also been on and off gear(mostly on)typically test and fina cycles--anyway,heres the thing--I can get pschyed up 2 to 3 x a week and have INTENSE lifting workouts on a consitent basis and I can keep constant also my gear usage--but diet is a 24/7 mentality and I find you really need to be commited to it--I am not and don't want to be(full time job,5 kids,wife,bla bla bla etc).So when I read "hey bro,if your diet isn't clean,your wasting your time bla bla bla" I get frustrated.I,m not wasting time--when I lift I get awsome pumps and I feel great--I,ve lost love handles etc etc my arms for me are freaking huge, and my wife freaks out at the size of my back(deadlifts--yes!)--and the gear keeps this 50 old man horney as hell--so when i wake up at 2 am and down a glass of milk with 15 oreo's or I'll pig out at mcdonalds with one of my 5 kids--big deal I have no abs showing,big deal!(its still a flat stomach)-what I,m saying is this--even being laxed on my diet(although I always have to drink a post workout shake)I still am 100 times better off with my current bb style along with its gear usage than I was 3 yrs ago and compared to most of my 50 yr old friends (couch potatoes) I am doing just fine.Just wanted to share some thoughts from a not so perfect 50 yr old body builder-(who still has alot to learn)thanks.
