This page will have some old videos that I posted and some new ones. I am calling it my showoff post.
14 years ago, heavy leg press
I’ve always been drawn to lifting heavy weights. Walking into a gym, I felt the adrenaline kick in—I was ready to make my mark. Recently, I recorded a video at LA Fitness on Dale Mabry, near Van Dyke Road in Tampa, Florida. Join me as I share my passion for strength training and the thrill of pushing my limits.
56 Years Strong: Muscle Confusion and Crushing Leg Day (400lb Leg Press!)
Man, 56 and still pushing limits! Gotta love the feeling of proving people wrong. 40+ years in the gym and I’m still finding new ways to shock my muscles and keep them growing. Forget the typical routines, I’m all about mixing it up – heavy weights, high reps, you name it. Last week? 1000 air squats had my legs screaming (in a good way!). This week? 400 pounds for 100 reps on the leg press! Talk about muscle confusion! It’s not just cross-training, it’s an art form.
Speaking of art, check out the video of that leg press challenge. Pretty epic, right? Just a reminder that age is just a number when it comes to pushing yourself. But hey, it’s not all about the numbers. Consistency, clean eating, and that mind-muscle connection – those are my secrets. Gotta feel the workout, you know?
And speaking of clean, did I mention I’m 100% natural? That’s right, no shortcuts, just hard work and dedication. Turning 57 in a couple of weeks, and I wouldn’t feel stronger or more alive. This ain’t just about aesthetics, it’s about proving that anything is possible with the right mindset and approach.
So, here’s to defying expectations, embracing challenges, and proving that age and even genetics are just hurdles, not roadblocks. Keep pushing, keep experimenting, and keep inspiring! Natural and never slowing down – that’s my motto!
Hey there, fitness enthusiasts! I recently achieved a major milestone in my leg training journey that I couldn’t wait to share with you.
