Hi all

[SteveH]

I found this forum and I am impressed at the range of advice, encouragement and information available. I hope to lean on people in here as I embark on a new challenge.
I am 53, a Police Officer, and Martial Artist for 25 years with my emphasis on instructing for a number of years now. Being engrossed in instructing, my own training has fallen away more than I would like and I have decided to take a break from teaching and concentrate on my own M/training, but also take on the personal challenge of weight training and bodybuilding.
I am a total novice and am not daunted by the age factor - my age is a consideration in my training but not a drawback.
My goals are to shoot at single digit body fat % and I have a broad idea of the body shape/image that I am after (attached).
I feel very humble to be among some very knowledgeable people in here and any advice that comes my way will be appreciated.
Steve

Hi Steve, welcome.

Take a look at the Getting Started link in my signature to get the ball rolling. Go ahead and provide us with some of the pertinent information that we are looking for. Specifically, we'd like to get an idea of your food intake in terms of grams of carbohydrates,fats, and protein as well as your training routine. All this stuff is outlined in the Getting Started link in detail.

Again, welcome and congratulations on getting started.
