I just like looking and being in better shape than 95% of the 20 to 25 yr olds out there..
Not to mention freaking everyone in the YMCAout when I rack pull the whole stack of weights when the biggest dude in the gym is pulling 200# and I go behind him and pull the pin and put it at the bottom of the rack on 250#..lol
