51 years old, 1st time on stage

**Bodyworks** · 02-11-2007, 02:04 PM

This is a friend of ours, another Body Works member, Billy Summers. Billy has wanted to compete for several years, but with one thing and another, never actually did it. until last month, when after a 14 week diet, he competed in the NABBA UK over 50's class, placing 3rd in a good line up. If i can get him or Mags to post here, he'll tell you more himself.
But what do you guys reckon ? 51 years old and starting out his bodybuilding career. just goes to show, ANYONE can do it, NO EXCUSES.

Yeah the guy looks great for 51 no if's about that. He dont look 51 either, just one question how long has he been doing weights for?

excellent.. its good to see theres no age restrictions in the sport too.. especially for your first show that must be something to be very proud of!

Brian Flockhart won class 2 and overall at this years nabba north britain, and also placed 3rd in class 2 at the britain finals, at the age of 47!

...so basically in 20 years i have a chance of being half decent! lol
