Bodybuilding is a lifestyle .
 
I'm not some old fart living in the past--the present and who I am now is what's important.
I just care what I look like today.
So I have posted today's pics to encourage you guys here at Getbig.com.

I look forward to positive comments .
(Trolling not welcome)

Congratulations Mr Huang!

I hope all getbigger's will also 'see the light' and keep training in their 30's, 40's, 50's and beyond.

But it is a very hard slog to train year in year out.

How do you keep training and not get exhausted?!?!?!?!

I've just had a six month 'rest' and just about to cycle up again (the training ...not the juice).

Peaking at 45 !!!

Yes------it is hard to go constant when you go heavy and give it 100% and not be juiced !!!   I find the layoffs from time to time beneficial------I have kept the injuries away, and I dont have the chronic aches and pains that are associated with continuous heavy lifting.I Think the best bet , however to avoid long layoffs is to condense your workouts with shorter workouts and lighter weight workouts------you wont be as burned out, and you will still reap benefits !!!  Good luck !!!

I advise older lifters to try to keep the hypertrophy process active. Keep something in your muscles growing. That is about as close to the fountain of youth that we can naturally approach.

Thanks everyone ,
It's very difficult to keep training all year round and over 35 years !!
I always say that you need the "3 D's" (Determination,Discipline,Dedication) in your bodybuilding life.
Yes, I feel frustrated and get exhausted with my chronic injuries :http://www.getbig.com/boards/index.php?topic=117526.75

(I said before I am a lifetime natural body builder. This means no juice at all, and I'm not against anyone here using the stuff--it's your personal choice.  i'm just here to say that it can be done.)

No juice, at your age, looking like that?

Maybe you can get a subscription to MD instead.  They have some guy named Billy who answers the phones over there and I here he's friendly enough.
