Dave, Go for it.. I did my first show of two this year at 50yrs Young.. Even having my Right hip replaced less than year ago.. It was a Awesome Experiance I will never forget.. I trained to win but really went into it for the experiance and to compete against myself.. I did well in both shows. esp competeing against 25yr old Freaks in the Novice. Ended up winning my weight class in Heavyweights at State Show.. Even with Weak Legs...
What i learned about myself, dieting and training in that process is priceless and I plan on Taking it to another level this offseason and DEF will be back next season much bigger and better..

Good luck and I say What are you Waiting for? Go for it!
