A Superhero Body Needs a Superhero Workout

Superhero bodies need a Superhero Workout. Cleaning my eating habits and I’m still getting use to training with less carbs in my body. At 40, I’m happy I can still lift heavy. Exercise isn't just about looking good. It's about feeling good and constantly trying to challenge yourself. Full body workout as usual, but got a nice back pump today. Wonder whose dropping by tomorrow?
