Considering the ability to work out, age progression. Etc

Is this normal? :ld: Late? Are my days numbered? :sadcam:

a lot of dudes who play hs football but dont go to college hit their peak at 17/18

I feel I'm in the best shape of my life in terms of aesthetics, but that rim is starting to look higher and higher :(

howd you keep your bounce when you put on all that weight?

i could dunk off a drop step in 9th grade, now :sadcam:

I really didn't get into the 230lbs range until maybe 6 or 7 years ago, I had been around 215-220lbs prior to that and didn't really do much other than light squats and calf raises. My hops started fading when I got heavier, I could still dunk, but I wasn't soaring anymore and I couldn't take off from as far out. Once I started doing more squats and dropped the weight I could get up again, now though it just seems like the rim and I are growing apart, she's gonna divorce me soon :why:

I wish I had been more serious about this shyt when I was younger. That said, I'm 27 and am definitely in the best shape of my life, and don't really feel like im gonna stop making serious gainnnns for quite awhile.

My old man is 58 and still more jacked then most cats in the gym

i notice this as well but is this just due to nikkas in college having better weight lifting programs + better resources in addition to the ped's cuz most of my nikkas that didnt go anywhere after HS they stayed in tip top shape but just didnt really progress

Exact Same here...but my pops is :flabbynsick: :flabbynsick: :flabbynsick: x 1000 which is literally why i started working out a while ago...i cant be having cardiacs and diabetes and stuff...my sister and i saw our parents on hospital beds and but decided NOT US. Ironically like you all said, he was an all city swimmer in Gary, IN (yes nikkas swam in the 70s) and was built like phelps until his late 30s...now hes on some oliver miller shyt...its crazy.

I'm 28 now and reaching the best shape of my life.

I think my next decade 30-40 will be my prime.

I wish I started earlier.
