As a Power Lifter I trained to get big and strong and I thought nothing of eating a whole family pizza followed with a half gallon of ice cream by myself in one sitting. I loved Power Lifting because I could eat to my heart's content and become big and powerful!
The first photo was taken on March 8, 2006th. The second, Sept 16th, 2006. I had a physical checkup by my family doctor two months after turning 50 years of age. At 5 feet 11 1/2 inches in height I weighed 316 pounds and my blood pressure was too high so the doctor prescribed blood pressure medication for my condition. I told him I did not need it because I would drop my bodyweight. He countered by telling me that losing weight would not do it. He was thinking I meant 20-30 pounds but I was thinking in terms of losing 100 pounds. I left his office with the blood pressure medicine in hand but with a definite goal in mind - that of losing 100 pounds of body fat by following a sound diet and an exercise program geared to lose body fat. My background as an athlete in Power Lifting helped me set definite goals so my plan included following a good nutritional program I picked up from (Power Nutrition) articles in Powerlifting USA. Cardiovascular exercise was included too so the increased circulation prevents loose skin from forming as fat would disappear. The cardiovascular movements such as jumping rope, biking or jogging meant constant pounding on the knee joints and to prevent wear and tear and to keep stability and warmth in the knees, I used the TK Knee Bands. The pounding affects the lower back and spine as well so I wore the TK Waist Band that kept my back warm and gave good support to the lower back. The one thing that helped me lose inches around my waist was the TK Waist Band. It is common to lose 3 pounds or so in exercising from sweating and all this can be gained back by hydrating yourself but what most people do not understand is that the TK Waist Band helps generate heat and that in turn improves blood circulation. This, in turn, helps metabolize this area faster.
In this photo you see me wearing what I call the PS. Now, for the first time in my life, I have a good chance of Benching double bodyweight, and at a wiser age of 50!

My
waist came down from 44 inches to 34 inches and I did lose 100 pounds
in body fat in 7 months' time. If you check my shoulder and chest
area on the "after" picture, I have not lost any size or shape there
but the waist has impressively trimmed down. Incidentally, my blood
pressure reading is perfect and I do not take any medication. They
say with age comes wisdom and I find this to be so true.
