Do you care about staying fit?

For me, I like to build my strength so I can defend myself if I need too. I also like to make sure my body looks good in the summer for the ladies. 😂
 
Do you care about staying fit?
I had a phase from around 2010-2014 where all I did was run. I lifted too, but no matter what I ate, I'd stay a stick. This is when I realized that no matter my diet, I could always go long distances.

But, I wanted size too.

I was only lacking one thing: T. My testosterone dropped below 300, which explains why I could never gain mass.

I got on TRT in 2016 and went from probably around 150 pounds to 225. I got really into bodybuilding, but realized I'd never get a Pro Card because I have a muscle deformity on my left calf that is essentially a smaller calf under it, and quite prominent when bofy fat is low.

However, I already went that far and loved it. So, I continued. Until C19. Gyms closed. Everything came to a crawl. There was no way to move the weight for what I was in order to maintain the mass and get the amount of food I needed (5000+ calories daily) due to shortages and price increases.

By the time gyms opened, I was down to 185, where I am now, but more muscular.

By 2022 I pretty much let myself go.

I don't think I'm going to target anything over 200 pounds this time. But, I want to get 40 reps of 225 on the flat bench back as a goal. Also, be able to run a sub-21 minute 3 mile, something that I'd struggle to do for 1 mile at a bulk 225 with the training and diet differences.
 
I want to be physically fit and very attractive too. So, I don't joke with my exercises. I'm happy with how I look now. it seems a good shape is starting to show as I get compliments whenever I go out. One thing in exercises is that every step works wonders.
