hitting the gym about 6 days a week. lifting 4 doing an upper / lower spit with a strength / power lifting template. Not really bulking, doing more of a recomp so i'm sacrificing some strength gain to try to stay relatively lean. I'll probably do a quick cut when i'm done with my current program then move on to either a westside template or 5-3-1. my goal would be to get to the 1000 lb club by spring, but that's pretty ambitious. hey, you asked

i do it for overall health and because i like it, not with fishing in mind. fishing is not a physical activity IMO, and any relatively healthy person my age can do it. staying in shape for the long term definately extends the time that you can stay at it though as you age.

Good luck. I got to 1100 (just belt, no other gear) when I was 23/24, but my shoulders back and knees are toast.

I just need to get back to spinning 1-2x a week once the wife goes back to the work and we get a baby schedule down!

Well done. I'm hitting the gym3-4X per week, mostly agility/endurance/core type stuff.
Of course there's the goodwill building w/the wife too...she gladly returns the favor every summer when my one night commando trips to remote islands with certain surf mavens takes place. She takes care of the kids while I kick the snot out of myself. It all balances out.
