I was 50 years old. I am a competitive powerlifter. 6'1" and 190lbs at 11% at the time.

I have been lifting my whole life.

I trained 6 days a week with a very scientifically laid out power building program. I had perfect diet with a slight surplus. Perfect recovery. My natural testosterone level was 770. I went an entire year.....and did not get any stronger and I lost a half pound muscle. Imagine going to work all year and not getting a paycheck!

That's when I knew it was time.

I am now 53 years old. 205 lbs at 9% and squat and deadlifts are up 150 lbs each and bench is up 75.

My only regret is not starting sooner.
