    I was just having a conversation with a co worker who thinks it's crazy that I'm lifting heavy weights. The other day she asked if I just wanted to be a "she-hulk."
    Makes me wonder if she doesn't understand human physiology... or she is just worried that you are or will be looking so much better than her. :smile:

    I will be 62 in May and am feeling lean and mean right now! I'm enjoying all the exercise big time and have been doing light weights for about six months now. Once I retire, I am joining a gym and working on the big guys - that's my goal anyway. I love the feeling of being able to make my muscles work for me instead of against me. Keep up your fabulous job.

    <<< 39. 40 in September.

    The person who gives me grief about lifting is my massage therapist. She says things like "why would you want to build all that muscle?"

    Most other people say things like "you look great."

    Looking great. :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :flowerforyou:

    I still can't believe that there are women out there that still think that women will become she-hulks from lifting. Seriously??

    And, some people believe in mermaids and ancient aliens.

    Just saying.

    You gotta set your bar lower . . .

    Exercise is really not a word in her vocabulary. In fact, we often joke about it.

    That's kind of like saying....I'm 39, why should I lose weight, why should I learn something new, I mean, I'm half dead anyway....

    Keep up the good work! I'm 44, soon 45. Have never been so light, so fit and those muscles - them babies are growin' and I love 'em!
