Reply:yes it is possible. They have classes so you are not going up against some 26 year old kid. Just harder to form the body as you get older especially if you havent been lifting as a means to stay in shape. But yes you can do it.
Reply:Absolutely it is. Most bodybuilders will not peak until they reach their mid 30s or so, so you've still got plenty of years left. Your muscles will not heal as fast as a young guy's while lifting heavy but if you diet and supplement correctly you'll be able to compensate. A 100% whey protein with low carbs (Optimum nutrition and Biotest are some of the best brands) after you work out is one of the best things for immediate muscle repair. Combine that with a casein protein at night to prevent catabolism of your muscles while you sleep and you'll be in good shape.



I recommend checking out www.t-nation.com for some bodybuilding articles. All the guys on there are very intelligent and dumb nothing down so its great to get raw, cutting edge information.
Reply:It is possible but it will be better if u do running and yoga because it gives u internal strength which is the most important thing . if u workout at gym by heavy weight system its not very good for a tyro. so its better that u start working out free hand ......

Reply:It's possible to do body building at any age but it becomes more difficult as you age. However it can be accomplished with daily exercise and body building.
Reply:yeah man! go to bodybuilding.com! hope everything goes well for you...
Reply:Definately yes! I am 49 and I train on a Bow Flex machine.

I do not compete in shows anymore or train as heavy as I used to, but still maintain everything pretty well. It's never too late.
