I am Push50!!!
I am 55 y/o at 5’6” and weigh in at 172 lbs.
I have been lifting for the better part of 10 years... I run a clean diet most of the time and even in the times that my diet is not as clean; I still strive to eat healthy and make wise choices.
At the age of 48, I entered my first amateur bodybuilding competition and have competed in two others since then. This was a bucket list item and I have not decided if I will compete again, however, I still run a cycle or two a year and maintain a healthy life style so that if I decide to I am ready. When I am not on a cycle, I am on TRT which includes 100 mg/Test Cyp./wk. This make post cycle a breeze.
My diet typically consists of Chicken, Turkey, Fish, Shrimp and Ground Beef or Steak (lean) 1-3 times a week for dinner, broccoli, asparagus, Brussel sprouts, green beans, salad and very few carbs unless I am bulking.
I seem to function very well on a low carb diet. and have acclimated my body to burn fats as fuel instead of carbs.
MACROS= Proteins, Carb and Fats
Typical Macros:
Protein 45%
Carbs 15%
Fats 40%
