Motivation

I have posted photos of Clarence Bass, Frank Zane, Jack Lalanne, Larry Scott, etc etc to show that you can still have a nice body and healthy even in your ripe old age. Those guys are 60, 70 and even 90 years old, but they are still fighting fit. Of course it does not come easy, as they have been training and eating right for the the last 50 years.

You don't have to be haggard, unhealthy and frail when you are over 50. God may have pre-determined when we will kick the bucket, but until the time comes, we will go on ,with the dreaded diabetes, stroke, heart attack, etc etc off our back.

Even 90 year olds improved muscle strength by 174% after 8 weeks of weight training according to researchers at Tufts University.

When you are over 50, age itself is motivational. You can't just rest , let nature takes it's course, and be frail. If you do that, you'll go downhill pretty fast. If you stay even, everybody else is going downhill so fast, you will look and feel better! Ha Ha.

The pictures are a motivation of some sort. If they can do it, why can't we? I'll post more motivational pictures soon. So keep pumping, no matter what your age.
