Looking Good Naked, new milestones.








2015 is almost gone,  Myself I have grown from a solid 224#  to a solid 297#.   Now the next part isworking to maintgain weightwhilelosing fat.  In some cases your local sports supplement store has rthe help you need.   In my 50's one of my concerns is keeping my testosterone levels up.  Actually this is accomplishd by heavy resistance training and a little help from dietary practices.  Currently I am at about 20% fat.  5%of our bodyfat is not the stuff we are wanting to lose.  5% of our bodyfat isnthat tissue that keeps our organs in place.
     Here is something else I started looking at.  In the condition called 'edema', manypeople look like they are super fat with rolls  hanging off of their ankes and such.  The dumb thing is doctors give you water pills or diuretics to urine a lot more.  Does not work too well.  The reason is because even when we breathe part of cellular respiration is waste generation.  Here is the weird part.  WShen we breathe one of the waste products is 'water'.  Seriously with 'edema'  better known as 'fluid retention', when the cause is not blunt trauma.  (auto accidents, falls and such where the response is swelling).  Then the cause is the bodies failure to use enzymes and electrolytes to manage fluids.  I am not a doctor but I am thinking that eliminating drinking fluids is not going to help.  Maybe electrolyte replenishment is a better idea.  I need more work on this.
     Now is time to makea newstart to your fitness program.  If it is still working, keep it up.  As for myself myregime needs some modifications now.
