I just turned 51, I’m 5-8, 200 lbs. I’ve always been active, but since taking paxil medication, I’ve gained alot of weight. I would like to loose about 25-30 lbs. What a good diet & exercise plan for me!
Thank You for your time!

I am 57 and for the past couple years “thought” about starting an exercise program. I have been finding it difficult to do things that I never ever thought twice about. My balance is off at times but I seriously see a lot of health problems in the future if I don’t take control now. The most exercise I get at present is house cleaning. I do intense house cleaning though like moving furniture for vacuuming which I do daily. ANY suggestions would be helpful. Thank you.

I have just tuned 50 and celebrated it with a months personal training. So slid into 50 feeling good. My main problem is my trainer lives on a different continent now as we were only visiting the area. We are constantly on the move so hard to join a gym or get a trainer.
I have an athletic body; naturally; and let it go in my 30′s so I rolled into my 40′s but I do not want to go on in this mode in my 50′s. In fact would like to enter a competition as have never done so before. My Trainer Norma Jean Hall inspired me.
I guess I am looking for encouragement and ideas to work out. We live on a yacht so need ideas for limited space and facilities.
Can I do it? What do you think?

Hi,
I’m a 54 year old female who has not really exercised in 20 years (except walking the dog every now and then). I have lost so much muscle in my legs and have no tone in legs or stomach. Could you suggest what to do to get me started. I’m 5 feet 4 inches and weigh 140 pounds. Thanks so much!

Hello, I am 51 and started weight watchers and have lost 35lbs and getting very flabby, I was wondering how I can firm my arms? and at this age is it possible? I do want to also learn how to tighten the rest of my body but my arms I really can’t stand because I like to wear no sleeve’s or short sleeve’s. Thank you

Thanks for the encouraging notes, indicating that you can bodybuild in your 50s and can do so with results. I recall seeing a magazine in his 70s and he began body building in his 50s ., I could not get over the physique he had. All things possible
Thanks
