Great compliment and nice acknowledgement of your years of effort and commitment!

A few years ago I was at a family gathering talking to my 90 year old uncle. As we were talking he took hold of my upper arm, got a strange look on his face, squeezed my bicep and said "Are you one of those personal trainer people"?

Thanks for the kind comments.

I love Galaxy Quest! All the performances are so good. The late Alan Rickman is hilarious.

Wonderful compliment and testament to your dedication!

Can I ask what workouts you do for gaining muscle?

It was more the rotation I was doing than any particular workout. I was focused on muscle-building as opposed to fat loss. I did a combo of low weight/high rep and heavy/low rep workouts. Taking more rest days for muscle to build helps, too. My rest days might be balance/stretch/foam rolling/mobility type routines.

Mon: Steady State Cardio and/or Mobility and/or Balance
Tues: Upper Body Strength and Cardio Intervals
Weds: Steady State Cardio and/or Mobility and/or Balance
Thurs: Lower Body Strength & Abs
Fri: Steady State Cardio and/or Mobility and/or Balance
Sat: Upper Body Strength and Cardio Intervals
Sun: Lower Body Strength & Abs

Way to go, Alta. With all the the Galaxy Quest fans here, we should have a watch party!

Thanks! If only I could have the same dedication and determination when it comes the cooking and cleaning. The world would be a better place.

I own the blu-ray, so if anyone wants to organize a viewing party, I'm ready!
