Ask them m8
Are you fitness and gym aware?
When was the last time you deadlifted 6 plates like @Milky ?
It all starts when you look yourself in the mirror and ask, am I the best I can be ?

Champion @Demps you're right on the money.
But it takes honesty and discipline.
That's a question for everyone - my comment was sadly reflecting the repeated giving up of leads into the 2nd half of games. Probably the wrong thread to mention it. Oops!

If you want cheaper supplements mate would recommend bulk nutrients.com
You can get 5kg of protein there for the price you’d pay for 3kg at some places. They sell a bunch of cool nutrition stuff, the only stuff I didn’t really like was their preworkout - thought it was pretty low quality tbh

What do you think about this Demps, seeing we’re all individuals and we all react differently. I’ve lifted all my life and I’m now nearly 62. At about 55, I found intense training was just too much. I couldn’t recover. Because I loved it, it took me a while to snap out of it and start backing off. Now I do 5 sets of elevated pushups x 20 reps, 5 sets rows on those cable things at different angles x 20 reps, jumping single leg lunges x 20. Twice a week. I occasionally throw in some lateral raises, dead lifts, hyperextensions and ab things. I wish I had done this my whole life. I personally feel this is much better than benching, squatting and rowing heavy weights. 20 - 30 reps feels fantastic and not going to failure. DaBoss, can you try this, as a young fella. BTW, I weigh 95 kg and can complete 15 fair dinkum chins. Not bad for an old .....

Like I said, I’m 62 and still learning. I’m thinking ( with the benefit of hindsight ) if I could start over as a 20 year old, I would Do exactly this. lift heavy compound movements on Monday, not quite to failure and still at least 10-15 reps. 3 sets of bench, squats, rows and deadlifts, out of the gym in 40 minutes, Burpees and Varied position cable rows on Wednesday with some jumping lunges. Lots of them. Fridays, hit the heavy bag for at least 5 rounds and do some jump squats in between. When working the bag, move laterally and work side to side from the hips. You can take that as a base and build from there as you see fit and improve but the only thing you need to add to that routine is some running. Just run every chance you get, when you park your car a long way from where you are going, run to where you are going. Just run everywhere. If it’s in your mind to just run everywhere, you develop a sense of fit for everything, you just want to use your body to go. You just become active.
