I would say almost a year. However, I went on vacation for 7 weeks over the summer. Although I didn't do any heavy lifting, I brought some dumbells with me and did what I could. I just started a new routine based on the information I learned on this site at the beginning of this year.

I started lifting weights when I was fourteen and pretty much have never stopped (24yrs old now). there were a couple years inbetween that I took of from lifting to persue distance running (beleive that!?). So if you are talking about just exercisesing then stragiht since is was 14yrs old.

Started training 13 years ago, in my early 30s (yeah I'm old). Had a couple of lay offs in there, but have been training solid for the last three years.
