Just started to train again after 10 years of beer drinking and heavy partying . Made the new years resolution to get myself back into the shape I once was . Couldn't believe how feeble I have become my bench press has dropped by 80 lbs used to bench 180 for reps . When I started out January 15 I took it easy and was benching 95 for reps and have slowly increased my bench up to 140 for reps feeling way stronger . I'm 5'9 and January 15 weighed 235 lbs not a healthy combo . I'm now 208 lbs every one on my hockey team used to call me Fat Daddy now I'm known as Fit Daddy I have improved my skating immensely I now win foot races for loose pucks and am usually the first forward back on the back check. My goal is to get down to 190 lbs and maintain this from now on . I gave up Beer quit smoking Pot after 18 years of chronic use . Diet has changed dramatically from all that crappy fast food to healthy stuff lowered my carb intake drastically eat lots of meats , steamed veggies , raw veggies , salads , Vector cereal for breakfast , never used to eat fruit now it's part of my daily diet . My energy levels have gone through the roof lung capacity has probably doubled feel 10 years younger. Supplements I'm taking are Creatine monohydrate , multi vitamines , glutamine , salmon oil , green tea extract , whey protein powder. Since I started taking the supplements my strength has increased the recovery time of sore muscles cut in half and energy to spare all day long . Having a hard time pushing myself as hard as I would like due to a Hernia the reason I stopped working out to begin with I find it hurts if I go to heavy or after a ab work out especially the next day .
