Finding Before and After Pictures of men is proving difficult as the main forum is mainly women. I think we men should share some success photos here in the guys forum. I will share as soon as I have some results. Surgery in 1 month! I need some inspiration.

Awesome results @@Mike4132

Dang Mike4132,no loose skin, how'd you do it? You look awesome! Me personally I don't care for the huge bulky muscle bound stuff, but, to which one their own. I understand that it take lots and lots of hard work and those should be proud! I personally just want to tone up and work on the loose skin without surgery, but, in my case that probably won't happen and I don't desire anymore elective surgery and will learn to live with the arm flaps. It sucks, but, I'm content! Good job!! jake

@@Dub - have you been hitting the gym/weights much lately? Haven't heard from you in a while.

@@BigTink2LilTink - time for you to check in too! How goes the weight lifting?

Slow and steady so far. I've been benching around 75lbs for the last maybe two to three weeks. Doing roughly about 4 sets of 10 on those. Bicep curls and dips too. I am trying to not really over do it with the weights as I am also allowing my back to heal up from a pulled muscle about a month ago. I will give it another two weeks before I am fully back into the gym. Besides the light/med weight lifting my cardio has increased. I'm walking between 4 to 6 miles a day, and bike riding about 3 to 5 miles a day in the evenings when I get off work. This weekend I plan on doing a long bike ride with hopes of getting about 10 to 12 miles done.

I have a motto that I have been trying to live by every day. Keep moving. No matter how stressful life has become, keep moving forward. No matter how tired you are and wanting to give up, keep moving forward. Every time I have doubt creep into my mind, I repeat that saying over and over again, and then I either hit the weights or take a walk. Hell hopefully I'll really start to believe what it is that I'm telling myself soon.

Been vacationing a bit.

Did hit the gym a few times during last week's cruise.

Hit the fatceps at my regular gym this week after getting back int town.

Torn rotator cuff and some back problems are slowing me down..........but not taking me outa the training game.

Amazing thread! Every one of you men look fantastic AND younger. Great job and I have to say an inspiration.
