Thanks 0311. You are absolutely right about the research. I pitched the DHEA.

My trainer has about 7 years experience working with older lifters. I've met some of his clients....they are all doing well. He took the time to do a good interview with me and has a thorough knowledge of my health issues (sleep apthnea). His routines are mostly compound exercises with drop sets. I work shoulders once a week with him.

My routine is:

Monday - Shoulders/Abs
Tuesday - Cardio (running or road bike)
Wednesday - Back/Bis
Thursday - Cardio
Friday - Chest
Saturday or Sunday - Cardio

Note: I'll rest at least one day a week.

I obviously need to clean up my nutrition.

Thanks!
