HELL HATH NO FURY!

Everyday without fail, I turn to bodybuilding.com to read threads, check others’ progress, etc. when I came across stayfit2008’s post. Three things stood out: his awesome physique, his learning curve and ageism. He said: "I once was told a few years ago "you’re 40 years old now. Your body is finished growing muscle".
I’m so sick of hearing that! WE’RE STILL F*CKING YOUNG!!!
He adds: "I want to defy the belief that our bodies quit growing at some mystical age. I am a bodybuilder, with knowledge comes growth."
HEAR, HEAR!!
After I finished reading his bodybuilder of the week, I was so on FIRE! I mean, if he can do it, I KNOW I can do it and so can the rest of the 40++++++!!!
WHY THE F*CK DO PEOPLE KEEP SAYING, "WE’RE DONE, WE’RE OLD, WE’RE FINITE!" I hauled my ass to the gym and I was going to prove EVERYONE WRONG! I CRANKED MY IPOD AND STARTED TEARING UP THE GYM!!
With my teeth gnashing, I flung those weights through. every. f*cking. rep as if my life depended on it and threw ‘em across the room. I didn’t give a flying RAT’S ass who heard my LOUD GRUNTS, I just pushed myself way beyond the limits like never before! After every rep, I STRETCHED my muscles so outta space, I swore I saw my muscles just POP POP POP!!
Yeah, tell me I’m OLD, YOU @*%$#&! BASTARD!
By the end of my workout, blood coursed through my veins, setting my muscles on fire! I felt FREAKING ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m positive that the patrons looked at me warily as if I had gone MAD but I didn’t give a f*ck. I just blew out of the gym and left it in a smoldering heap of metal and concrete.
Yeah, tell me again that I’m OLD, f*cker.

Beautiful, absolutely beautiful.
I’m 50 now and if I can give it 100% in the gym and STILL GROW, I’m sure you are doing great. Keep up the good work my friend and don’t ever let the bastards grind you down.
