I began a fitness quest at age 50.

As can be seen, I do have a disability. The damage was caused by a drunk driver in 2009.

Despite this, I am in the best shape of my life at age 57. I have found that a combination of cardio, strength, training, food logging using an app, group support, and changing my habits have been very effective.

As the question does come up, I’ve done this naturally.

Diet consists of lean proteins, fruit, vegetables in a moderate amount of healthy carbs and fats. I’ve tried different things and for me this has worked the best.

Exercise consists of swimming, elliptical, arc trainer, and alternating push and pull days at the gym. Favorite exercises at the gym include chin ups, dips, seated row, overhead press, curls, crunches, push-ups, flys.

I try to listen to my body and do it feels the best.
