| | | Am I too old for body building?
well, hi every body! l am 28 years old. I have been doing weight lifting about a year now. but it was not continuous ( doing it one month then l stop for three month, again for one month and so on). But I hv notices that this is very Weird routine. however, it was because of the nature of my work. but things has changed at my work place so I want to start the Continuous routine. I dont want to stop on the way. three days a week!! Am I old for that... what is the age limit for body building? any idea...  |

| | | There's an age when you probably shouldn't be trying to impress people with your leathery, chalky body. But 28 isn't it. Green light to go for it. |

| | | I will turn 40 next year and going strong on the weights. I have heard of a guy in his upper 70's who can bench 400 pounds!
Old is in your mind. Change your attitude. |

| | I two met "elderly men" at the gym when I was on vacation. One was in his 60's and the other one 70. And they were both ripped as hell (not the scary way.) The one who was 70 said he started working out when he was 50 because he had a beer-belly and his health wasn't too great. Well, the way he looked it was hard to believe that this man once looked like a guy on the supersize-Me-diet 
So like the others said, you're never too old! |

| | | Too old
28 years old ... You're a spring chicken. You're never too old to bodybuild/lift wieghts, unless you have a physical disability that does not allow you to. Set goals for yourself, that may motivate you some to keep yourself going to the gym more consistently. Follow a clean diet also and drink plenty of water. Good luck. |

| | In a M&F Article I once read about a 76 yr old man who's big and cut. His body looks like that of a 20 yr old. In fact, in pic one, it just showed his body, then in another it showed his wrinkled white haired face  |
