About the Author

I'M 50. I'M A FATHER, HUSBAND, BUSINESSMAN AND CONVICTED FELON. And I LIKE LIFTIN' WEIGHTS..

I'm not a trainer. I'm not a bodybuilder. And I'm definitely not a fitness influencer. I'm just a regular guy who rediscovered how good it feels to pick up something heavy and put it back down. This site is about everything that happens around that simple act — getting older, staying sane, raising kids, marriage, work, prison (staying out of), booze, bad decisions, good decisions and occasionally making absolutely no progress whatsoever. Enjoy!
