I need to kick it up a bit, but I'm taking baby steps now. I used to run (I'm also a large framed "clydesdale-type") so I got to 9 minute miles when I ran the Bolder Boulder 10k. After I achieved my goal of running the BB I gave running up and went more toward weight training. My body type puts on muscle very easily.
My (secret) goal is to get into fitness modeling once I trim down some more. I've only been hard at the weight training for 4 months now. Although I've only lost 5 lbs, but I know I've transfered A LOT of fat into muscle.
Sounds like you are well on your way to be a fitness model :gj: Good luck and keep us posted on how you are doing!!!

I have lost 3 inches off the waist and probably 8-10 lbs.. I know this will probably sound korny but . . . before I started this I couldn't hold my breath for 30 seconds. Now I can do over a minute and not even breathe hard afterward. Plus, my diet has completely changed! (Which has a lot to do with the weight loss)
We have 2 more weeks after this week and plan on starting P90X. I'm not a big fan of health clubs and do not have much room for weights or machines at the house so this should fit in fine . . .

To be 50 and working out is AWESOME, no matter what it is your doing!!! Keep up the good work!!!
Re: How many days a week do you workout?
not enough!
There are 7 guys that come over to roll wed & friday nights. I also bike with my eldest son on saturdays.
I really need to make more time, although playing jiu jitsu 'games' with my 4 kids can sometimes be a workout, especially when they all attack at once! :)
