SETS & REPS: Baby Boomers Need It!

I picked up the Aug/Sep issue of Planet Muscle and enjoyed reading it, as always. I especially liked your story about Jennifer Micheli. She is very inspirational and motivational for a "babyboomer" fitness addict like me. As I started to get older (don't we all!), it suddenly dawned on me that if I wanted to stay in shape, I was going to have to put forth some sort of effort and do it consistently.

Instead of just “dabbling” in fitness, nutrition and workouts, I made the decision to make it a very large proactive part of my life.

At 51, I decided to fulfill a lifelong dream and compete in a bodybuilding show. On June 23, I did the IFBB Jr. CA. in Pasadena. I took 4th in my age (Masters Figure 45 and over). It was a great experience. It was both fun and scary at the same time. It’s my personal belief that "baby boomers" need a diet and workout regime perhaps even more so than our younger counterparts. Diet and exercise is indeed the true "fountain of youth" and the key to healthier living. Thanks again.

Congratulations – a 4th place in your very first show of this caliber is excellent!
