[_aj_]

No, but he has some kind of craven hatred of them. I think a bodybuilder stole his wife.

It is a pointless endeavour fearing something that is inevitable. Nobody likes getting older it's a tremendously depressing subject if you dwell on it but I see it as an utter waste of time and energy fretting over something you can't avoid.

At least getting old you can wind down, work less if at all and do a lot more of things you enjoy. When I trained at a local gym, my job enables me a lot of time off during weekdays so could train when gym opened at 9 and about ten older guys who were retired trained then and seemed to greatly enjoy themselves and seemed to have a good life

Palumbo is 49 , but looks 35.  He has a one year old kid and another on the way.

He also acts like he's in his early 30's

You need to change your glasses lens my friend. He doesnt look 35.

So I definitely shouldn't be eating dairy after the age of 35?

Didn't paumbo sack you for eating the entire stock of protein bars on the stand you were working before the expo even opened ? Why do you always speak so positively of him?

I was in great shape in my early 30s, (had visible~ripped abs from my teens up to 34-35) but i did fear aging a bit (how i would look 40+) when i was 35 and lo and behold, the physique turned to shit in my 40s!

i sure didnt peak in my 40s i tell ya that!

Lots of reasons though, if i took care of my body better and didnt react the way i did to all the personal tragedies, deaths etc im sure i would have trained more and thought more about what i was eating.

Interesting post wich gives some personal insights behind the Kwon handle. Life events make you lose interest in working out. For me after 36 I became more and more inactive because of a growing family and a sick wife ( she is better now) thus losing the athlethic look I was able to maintain with little to no effort up until then. Not working out was the reason of the decay, not age. I could stil get it back if I set my mind to it, so can you.

Looked best from late thirties to early 40's. Was 215-220 at around 12% bf. No real dieting and taking some prohormones and creatine.

2x must be horrible for then seeing us men getting beter looking every year. My wife admits I look better every year that passes.

Just realized im in that group. Lol. Pushing hard training and drug wise (with a 5yr break with only hrt) takes a toll. The "spark" tends to die out a bit after about 15yrs of teaining. (believe in on year 21 of training and year 18? Orbso of anabolics... You get tired and burned out. Especially with "life" happening)
