  1. Sorry but 48-51 years old is not old. My god. lol Many mr. olympias were near 40 when they won. You can easily maintain your peak form, well into your 50s and 60s.

      • “Albert Beckles competed at the elite level even into his 60s – placing 2nd at the 1985 Mr. Olympia to Lee Haney at 55 years of age.”

    • I don’t think they are saying that. I think they are just saying bodybuilders that have retired, but still look good. Most back off the training as they get older. If you continue pushing yourself and especially add in some trt, you will and can look better than ever.
