I know maybe its not the best video example of an injury free lifter Lol But it proves even at 52 years old there is no reason why you still cannot be chasing World records if you really want it bad enough.

Scott Mendelson is still insanely strong at 52 and no doubt can still press a tonne RAW and put 99.9% of the rest of us to shame. Just proof that there is still no reason not to push yourself as you get older as I see so many guy's using the fact that they are over 30 now and getting older as if its an excuse to get lazier and not still seek to achieve what is possible. Stan Efferding is another example of someone setting WR's at 50, granted they are using gear and HGH but so do we. Stay positive Guy's, because once that negative mindset starts to takeover you are halfway to giving up :-))

I appreciate that recovery is going to take longer as you age, but I making sure you are on top of all your Vitamins and nutrients becomes especially important. Making sure you are taking things such as a good Multivitamin that is full of ALL the B's and high Vit C, Fish oil for joints and creatine becomes especially useful now in helping keep energy levels high together with optimal muscle hydration and amino acid transport. I'm really paying close attention to these areas now and even on the rest day after deads I no longer feel like staying in bed sleeping all day, instead I'm full of energy and ready to eat. It makes a huge difference.
