No, but I hope to be half as in shape as he at that age!

I'm pretty sure it's a guy named "Jeffrey S. Life."
Charlie said…

You guys beat me to it. I saw his picture somewhere before and just googled 70 year old fitness doctor and that name popped up!

i think he's that 70 something doctor who wrote a book about fitness and aging. I read a article about him. If it's the guy his name is Dr. jeff ? Big into hormone therapy. I think he also Body for life winner ? Good luck

Cheers

I remember now there was some controversy about whether this guy was on steroids

http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=134553171&page=1 has some interesting commentary and background.

Incidentally, I found this by going to Google image search, clicking the little camera icon, and pasting in the URL of the image. Not many people seem to know that Google image search can find similar images if you upload one or provide an URL.

Yes-on steroids, but prescribed as an anti-aging medication.

Although he has less muscle mass, Clarence Bass looks better than Dr. Jeff IMO. No hormone therapy either as far as I know.

yes, i'm pretty sure he was a body for life winner. IIRC, this was a photo taken for Muscle Media

I don't know who he is but Scott Sonnon posted the same photo on Facebook a couple of days ago so I guess it is becoming viral.

He's in tons of magazines here in the US wit his advertisements. Yes, he was a body for life winner, he sells HGH type hormone/steroid program.

I think he's associated with a rejuvenation clinic, hormone therapy.

They advertise in in-flight magazines, costs a couple thousand a month.

Doesn't GH therapy shorten lifespan?

Dry January

I mentioned a few weeks ago that I was taking part in "Dry January".  I didn't make a big song and dance about it, but I decided to go for a calendar month or so with no alcohol.  A few people have asked me about my experience, so here are a few points. Why take a break from drinking? Alcohol is an interesting topic.  As a drug it is widely accepted in society, central to so much of our socialising and leisure.  There seem to be lots of health benefits - so we are told - yet there are also a lot of problems in terms of health, relationships and lifestyle that come from drinking. Over a few years I'd begun to become aware and then concerned that I was drinking too much and too regularly.  I am in a busy and stressful job and sometimes a glass of wine after work to relax is really helpful.  But over time, one glass became two.  Two glasses became ....I might as well finish the bottle.  A habit got established....and was starting to get too e...

So where have I been?

You will have noticed that this blog has been quiet for a while....  There are a few reasons for that, reasons that I thought I'd list here: WORK -  my day job has been incredibly busy and stressful this year. Working 10-14 hour days the last thing on my mind when I got home was putting something on here.  FACEBOOK/TWITTER - I suppose I've been using other channels to do some of what I used to do here. Quick fire posts pointing to interesting studies or news etc tend to get posted to Twitter (@chrishighcock) or to the Facebook Hillfit group http://www.facebook.com/groups/263083947097000/  REASSESSMENT - I've found myself less comfortable with some of the positions I've taken in the past. Sometimes I'm embarrassed by some of the things I've promoted. I'm not Paleo or low carb. I think Tabata and intervals are misunderstood and misapplied. I cannot really claim to be HIT.   I find myselfunable  honestly to post things on here and pretend that I am some sort o...

Taking up space for a brief update

I've a couple of posts in draft that I will get up soon -  an update / reflection on Dry January and some thoughts on the scheduling benefits of short workouts if your life is busy.  Before that though, I am pointing to something else. However, I wanted to highlight something that is coming this weekend that I've been involved in.   Amber Rogers (Gokaleo and author of Taking Up Space ) has been pulling together a bundle of books from various authors with a common theme, one that I've been pushing here recently.   Keep it simple, avoid the hype, be patient, be consistent and flee the gurus.   I've talked before about how we get obsessed with pushing for more and more, when enough is OK.  I've given my view that so much of the health and fitness internet world is more like a gnostic religion than something that will benefit your life. There are other voices out there saying similar things and I'll be pointing to a bundle of books later this week ...
