While I did not get the amount of definition in my abs that I had hoped for, losing 3.5 inches off my waist was huge for me.  I hope to shed another 2 inches to achieve a 32" waist. My body fat has dropped from 19%-20% down to 12% and I can feel a firmness in my muscles that I’ve never experienced before.  This much was accomplished by experimenting on my own and through reading whatever I can.

In late January I purchased a copy of The Body Sculpting Bible for Men.  I knew immediately that it was the wholeistic approach that I needed.  I also found that there were three other people on this site who had bought the book and were interested in doing the program.  We have formed a group to use the book for a 90-day period and then post our pics and accomplishments.  We will also be doing body blog posts as we go along.  Our ages are 31, 42, 52, and 60(me).  Two of us are from the United States, one from Ireland, and one from Austria.  One is doing the Mass Workout, one the Advanced workout, one is undeclared, and I am pursuing the Standard Workout.  Stay tuned as the results may be interesting.

Turning 60 has been a positive and fun experience.  Someone on this site has told me several times that age is just a number and that is very true.  Doing a body transformation at this time in my life is a personal competition and I am constantly amazed at things I can do now that I did not do at 25!  I am profoundly appreciative of the time and good advice afforded me by so many others on this site in assisting me with my goals.
