Training Partner 

The above photos show my best friend, Craig, who has been my training partner for the past ten years. It is my opinion that having a training partner is the best way to stay inspired, motivated and on track. As a role model (see previous blog post), Craig has been my driving force to “hang in there” and become the very best person I can be. These photos were taken at the age of 56 (yes, 56!) and are living proof that there really is life after 30, 40 and even 50. IMHO, he is the personification of physical perfection and is definately the most dedicated bodybuilder I have ever met. The 2nd photo is particularly impressive in that the pose is totally relaxed but still shows his awesome muscular definition & vascular cuts in perfect proportion - and without flexing. Even at age 56, he rertains an enviable BF ratio of around 8%-9%.

I share these photos in hope that Craig will inspire other “seniors” as much as he has me and my continuous quest for fitness - regardless of age. Like good wine, we can just get better. Don’t quit!

I would appreciate your thoughts and comments. Thanks! 

I am an older guy (age 71) who has always been interested in fitness & bodybuilding as a way of life. Since most of my friends (no, make that "all") my age could care less about fitness, I am hoping that there are other "Old Farts" out there for support and motivation. I also invite other seniors to visit my senior fitness website at: http://netconex.com/kenchi. Age is just a number so let’s support each other - we are not alone!
