Trust her, Mathew.

Vickie knows her stuff. In fact, of the many personal trainers and physical therapists I've been around in the past 30 years or so . . .

She's the best.

hi Mathew
 
Dear Mathew,

Quitting smoking might not hurt either.
Easier said than done and I'm not preaching.
But speaking as a former smoker I can tell you that adding muscle and adding to overall health is much easier when you quit smoking.
I did it four years ago and I know you can too if you haven't already.
Actually I psyched myself out, told myself I was "taking a break" and it's turned into a 4 year "break" so far, I never really "quit". But I got it out of my system.
Believe me your body will react in very positive ways over time and it's easier to put on muscle mass.

good health to you!

What's up?
 
Matthew, We are all curious about your training with the creatine. How id it work for you? Did you have any profound changes or gastrointestinal issues? Was it easy to impliment? Did you use the other information I and others shared?

We like to keep up with progress.

Vik

I had been working out for four years to get to that point, but not gaining much weight during the process. Looking back I realize it was my diet. I simply wasn't taking in enough protein and calories. I was never a big eater back then.

Holy crap! You beast!!!

Vickie,

Would you recommend this brand of creatine? http://www.gonsi.com/products/produc...u-835003002276

I'm not sure if they include enough information. They explicitly say that the creatine is pure, but I do not know if they are guaranteeing it is 100% pure or what. Otherwise, are their specific brands you would recommend?

Thanks!

Matt

You are doing pretty well yourself dude and at your age, you should blow by those numbers without any problem.

That was 28 years ago. Seems like an eternity especially when I took more than a two decade break from visiting a gym. Something I'm not very proud to admit.

But...I'm about a month away from breaking my record albiet at a 185lb body weight, so at my age I don't mind brag'in a little. :) Personal bests are what its all about, even when you've raised kids and are looking way back at your youth. It ain't over even when you think the fat lady is singing.

I work out now to raise my game, stay healthy and keep from getting hurt doing the activities I love. I learned a few weeks ago that I also have to check my ego at the door when I walk into a gym. Its easy to injure yourself there if you don't warm up properly. :naughty: I was doing squats with 275 without a good warm up and on the 3rd rep I felt the small spinal erectors in my lower back give out at the bottom of the movement. I'm healing fast but learned my lesson.

The biggest effect on my golf game is I'm now a better Hitter than Swinger.

In terms of Creatine - I haven't noticed much a performance benefit but I'm still monitoring it during cycles.
