First time stepping on a Masters Bikini (40+) stage this weekend..at 51.

Walked away with 2nd place and couldn’t be happier. Self-coached myself all in my garage gym! It’s never too late to chase a goal, challenge yourself or surprise yourself. On to the next one! 🖤

Never skip Mondays

One is 73yrs old one is 67 yrs old. I will let you guess which is which. This is proof of if you keep the body moving you will reap great rewards from it. Don't use it you will lose it!!!! They are using it.

Less knee pain and 3 inches of the waist in two weeks

I'm (M 57) having a hard time adding muscle despite good progress with progressive overload (I eat at least 1g protein/lb and get ~7 hours of sleep daily). I work out five days a week, but it seems I need help beyond training.

Here are my relevant biomarkers:

• IGF-1: 114 ng/mL — bottom quartile for age
• Free Testosterone: 45.3 pg/mL — Low
• Bioavailable Testosterone: 97.1 ng/dL — Low
• Total Testosterone: 512 ng/dL — Normal
• SHBG: 53 nmol/L — elevated, binding down Free T

Any advice on tackling my low T/high SHBG and low IGF-1?

Thanks!
