Helping my old man

[z3nrunn3r]

Just started my father on the novice program and he is now on his way to becoming an adult male. My father is diabetic and it was causing quite a few quality of life issues. After I dragged his ass into the gym kicking a screaming he finally gave in and damn he is getting strong fast. He was looking bad before he started, and now he seems like a different person every week. Also, he is on the school board and was impressed enough to send this email to the baseball team coach.

"Hi

Please pass this along to any sports people you know, or those who just wish
to stay useful.

Josh, my oldest son, has packed 50 pounds of muscle on using this
information. It is not new but works very well. He said he wished he had
this when he tried football.

This information is actually good for anyone who wishes to age and stay
mobile.

Nothing new, just what works.

Bottom line, three days of three exercises with heavy weights per week and plenty of good milk and food leads to strong people. No magic.

Tell him I said Thanks. He seems to have chosen his son wisely.
