I did 6mins of laps around the shop last night.

EDIT: goal is 225.Chest and arms today followed by some ab work and 10 minutes on the assault bike.
205 today on the bench for 5 reps. I was like, "Damn, I'm feeling weak today." And when I was done I realized I had grabbed 2 35 lb plates instead of my usual 25 lb ones.
My goal is 220 for a couple of reps.
Good job, man! Just stay consistent and you'll see results.Just finished up with 9/10ths of a mile run. My weightloss coach calls it jogging, since I'm not moving fast enough. My view is I got around the block a lot faster than if I was sitting on the couch.
Just curious, what would you say is the oldest student at your gym? I'd love to take jiu-jitsu but at 55 I'd be afraid I wouldn't be flexible enough and injury-prone.I already train jiu jitsu 2x a week. I've been trying to make it a habit to run 2.5 miles at least twice a week since I live within walking distance of a track. When I was in my early 20s it was easy to just go bust out a 20 minute 2.5 mile but now that I'm older its definitely not as easy as it used to be. On top of this I've started doing calorie counting and I was surprised at how much I was eating a day and didn't realize it! Hope is I can get myself down to ~220 which is what I was in my 20s (currently 265ish).
I'm just a lowly white belt so I'm usually with other white/blue belts, which tends to be younger people but I would say I've seen people as old as 50 in the classes. I know I've seen older purple/brown/black belts around the gym.Just curious, what would you say is the oldest student at your gym?

"His favorite day is Shoulder Dislocation Day".
I do a mix of both.I agree with this guy. Especially for us older guys. Dumbbells over barbells. Matches natural movements, less stress on joints, especially the shoulders. Left the bar bench presses and dead lifts to the younger guys years' ago.
