Welcome to 2014! Now get your ass in top physical condition!

No one else started it so here it is!

**From the 2013 Thread**

If you want to get back into lifting, or need a new lifting routine, START HERE:

http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wi...inner_Programs

If you have questions about the SS programs, look here:

http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ

Keep in mind that you're a novice lifter for a longer period of time than you think you are. Novice lifting can last anywhere from a few months to a year or two, depending on how hard you hit the weights and where you started.

Once you've reached the point where you don't make regular progress on the SS program, you are ready to move on to the intermediate stage, which can last you for a good number of years. Find it HERE:

If you're a very advanced lifter (many, many years of CONSISTENT weight training), then there are lot of programs out there, and which one you pick is simply a matter of preference. If you're really that advanced, you should know what works for you and what doesn't by this point.

At 52 years of age fitness seems to be constant soreness. It takes me to long to recover. Any advice on supplements to ease such suffering?

I've heard a lot of adds about testosterone but I figured I didn't need that but if it aids in recovery and soreness then I might want to rethink that.

Sore is good. Pain is bad. Work a different part of your body than you did the day before so you can give the part you worked the day before the time to heal.

I started at age 30 and it was a great choice. You should at least get your T levels tested by a doctor.

I feel sorry for your wife.

2 weeks away from the gym and I'm pretty sure that the AC was out this evening. I'm a wet mess.

I'm not really doing that much but damn. My left hammy seems to be a mess and then I'm not sure if it's the bottom of my glutes or the top of my hammies but there's a soreness that I've never felt before. I'm not doing much upper body because I'm working on my golf game but even if it was just hitting a couple of buckets of balls it still seems to take me two days of recovery for my work to show up. I need a recipe for a faster recovery. Still yet at 52 I have the feeling that this is just going to be life from here on out.
