My grandfathers 90 years of age and still does his daily exercises in the bedroom first thing. Sit ups , stretches.  We went to garden centre last weekend. He was lifting bags of gravel up like they weighed nothing. All old times were looking at him. Thinking wtf. 90 years of age put half these youngens to shame. Still rides his bike. Stands in kitchen beside work top doing jumping raises. Hes a mad man. 

i agree here mate half hour bag light weights or  floor excercise everyday other day is ideal if you can

How can you be weak minded a was 15 year old never been in a weights gym before that. A wasn't one to be running around the wing for drugs like the rest chasing a high. A used to love it behind the door. These jails where your out most day on the landing for me was no good. A used to go gym sleep most the time. These that want to be running around the wing. Want two thing drugs or burn at the time. Was a few decent lads that did the same. Gym and in the pad. The weak minded ones are the ones that can't do it behind the door. And need drugs to get by in jail. 

Read what i said......a person who's motivation to train needs to be " im in jail with nothing else to do ".......is not going to continue to train on the out.....hence its a weak mindset.

whats the difference between you getting by taking a few orals  and tiring ya self out and someone  sniffing a subby and switching off ? 

Mc i was at the gym for 20 years all in all.  bulking up then stripping down. A started doing lighter weight more reps. f***ing the carbs off. Just eating white meat,  fish,  eggs , veg , fruit. It can be done if you put the work in. Half hour on treadmill half hour on rowing machine , twice a week. Its not all about weights. Its okay looking good on the outside and not inside. Just like a motor mate. Car means shit if under the bonnets not been looked after. Doctor told me after that 5 hour op. Any jo average may have not made it. Said lucky you was in good shape. I know 3 people that's died from a duodenal ulcer. That Tara tomkinson celebrity. 2 fellas near me. One up Eastmoor other side of town. And one abit closer. Im lucky mate.

Many might not train but lads around me where I live most have kept it up. Ive seen many that dont go chasing drugs want to change go to gym. Then when out there back doing the same old. Drugs or in boozer coked up again. Sad to see decent lads too bit of character. But hanging around with same idiots on the road wont be helping. A gave up smoking weed as a teen that's another f***ing waste of money.

Exactly,before the days of these muggy podcasts and people suddenly taking an interest in fitness/diet/supplements now because its " cool "....people like me who long before the internet came about studied,learned and lived strength and conditioning were thought of as a bit weird but it was a lifestyle to me from teens right up to a few years ago......due to a tough last few years and an elbow injury that ive now had 4 surgeries on and is still not fixing ive had to ease off a bit and it kills me......ive enjoyed having a beer and eating nice food these last few years but it eats away at my conscience.......my ol woman probably says it right that my belief that ive " let myself go " is most peoples normal living !......its definitely a mindset i will never understand people who buck to " trends "........middle aged men suddenly becoming all aware of their diet and lifestyle used to be called " a mid life crisis " ffs 

Bingo, it not so much how people want to look, it’s how they think they “should” look to others….im not saying that’s true for everyone but it’s true for a lot I bet.

I think your tale of your injury is worth people taking notice of, well older lads at least…..it’s not the fact of if you will get an injury but the fact that once you reach a certain age you may not ever come back from it.

Its just a fact of once you hit 50 you don’t heal up as quick if you heal up fully at all, little knocks and sprains and injury’s that took a week to be fine in your 20s or 30s will take a month or maybe never mend at all….thats just how it works, every human is built to peek and then fade.

Best bit of kit they brought out these. Got them in gym. Half hour on this in this heat your dripping. Me and our youngen was on it yesterday late afternoon. Hard going in the heat. Its good but first few weeks takes the skin off your knuckles. After that your hands get used to it. There not soft which I thought the material would be.

You bulk up and then strip down. Its hard work. Like a said about these 7 Stone wet through guys that start the gym no body fat fast metabolism. Mine like a f***ing tortes hard for me to strip it. Alot now are taking these injection. But f**k that. You dont know what the fucks in them. If you can't do it natural dont do it at all. 50 % is cardiovascular work for me when im in gym.

You can still relax in a pool , swimming alot of cardiovascular work. Jogging.   eating healthy. Still see your grand kids or do things with the kids. We go on holiday to carvan 3 times a year. Your talking about your joints. But on about eating shite and getting fatter lol come on WILF. 

I’m on about just doing what you want to do once you reach a certain point in your life, I don’t eat “shite” as you put it…..I enjoy a decent meal of well cooked proper grub.

You won’t find me in the chip shop 4 times a week, but you also won’t find me not having a cod and chips by the sea if a fancy one.

I gave up drinking when I was 24 because drinking and trying to build a life never went together for me personally, I’m no zealot about it, I just didn’t want the foggy head or to be out of control, I needed to get up very early every morning and I needed to be able to get places at a moments notice…..so for me it was a practical decision and one I’ve been quiet happy to stick with.

But even that’s said, if the occasion or the company feels right I will enjoy a beer because I feel like it……but I may go 3 or 4 years and never taste a drop of alcohol and that’s been consistent since 24.

I can happily go in a pub and not drink, my pals used to say “How can you not have a drink in the pub” and I used to say “Easy, I don’t order one”…..because, as Gnasher alludes to, most of this stuff comes down to peer pressure.

Ive been 28 and in absolute peak condition and now I’m retired and it’s some other young man’s time to be all that…..I’m enjoying what I want to enjoy while I’m still here. 
So, if you ever cook me a steak make sure its in plenty of butter with loads of garlick and bloody as hell, tip the brown butter from the pan over the top when you serve it and I’ll be 54 enjoying that while I watch 40 something you lift weights and eat tablets from Holland and Barret ! lol
