Some advice needed for my father.

My father is around 42 around 190-200 lbs 5'10 and 20-25% BF. Needless to say he doesnt take care of himself. I've pushed him to do SOMETHING or hes gonna suffer as he gets older. So him and my mother signed up at ballys ( yeah i know,ballys..) and hes working out and hes actually loving it. Hes always complaining of fatigue,aching body, just all around feels like shit all the time. I dont live in the same state, but i know the diet is piss poor and slowing changing for the better. I've urged him to go get a physical cause of his age and health and would you guys think he should get a blood test of some sort? What would you recommend he get tested? I know this probably isnt the right forum but theres some good knowledgable bros in here.
 
I work out at Ballys whats wrong with that? My Ballys has weights!

Your dad is still young and can take care of himself. That means you are really young yourself. I know 42 seems like way over the hill to you but to him he is just hitting the cruise button. Relax you have other things to worry about yourself like how are you going to get to be able to hit the cruise button by the time you are 40. It comes faster than you will ever know!

You had the money to pay for a COTB..........doesn't suprise me you workout at a Bally's!!

LOL

only the rich fuckers workout at bally's where i live. and they don't have anything over 100lb dumbells

j/k bro, well sort of anyways. thats the way it is where i live!
 
I paid for three years up front I thought it was cheap as hell. Only like $600. for three years thats a steal. You must live in O.C. or Beverly Hills if you think Ballys is expensive. I was a member of the Ballys I am at now when I was 17 years old working as a bus boy and paying for it myself. I would rather go to one in Beverly hills where I could be discoverred and live happily ever after with Sandra Bullock or Nicole Kidman or someone similar. Its going to happen you'll see! lol!

PS yes 100 lb dumbells is all they have at my ballys too!
 
ahh shit bro. ha ha i didnt see that right after the ballys comment. my bad. i apologize. but in all seriousness this post isnt about ballys. i used to work out there too. another thing. no reason to be offensive calm the fuck down. chill with the insults. have a little respect.

Take your own advice. I am 36 you are ??? Respect is something you know very little of to you disrespect is when someone looks at you wrong!
 
grow the fuck up bro. im 23. not once did i insult you directly, but you want to shoot off the hip calling me geighboy and grow some hair on my sac. Not only that but i apologized and you still have an attitude. Swallow your pride man. You dont have to be a tough guy. :rolleyes:

he most likely will have to specifically sak to have his test levels chceked.
total test
free test SHBG
LH
FSH
I like to also track my homocistien (sp?) levels
TC
HDL
LDL
VLDL
plus all the others on a normal panel.

If he feels like shit all the time it may be partially diet related and / or his test levels may have declined to a point that causes those feelings.

Is cardio part of his regular work out routine?
How often is he working out? Are you sure he is not over training?
etc, etc

Drrman? Is this Pwned ? lol!
 
Get his test levels checked in addition to the usual bloodwork. It may be a diet issue, a sleep issue or could be low tesosterone. He definitely doesn't have the test levels of a 20year old but he may still be in the normal range but I'd check to be sure. Your dads not old bro. It just seems that way. I'm only 2 years younger than he is and I can still hold my own in the gym and the bedroom -just ask your mom. haha, that was uncalled for. My point is, your dads not ready for Geritol but I would definitely get some bloodwork done. He's at the age when bloodwork becomes much more relevant for maintainig his ability to hang with the young guys. If he's not against some suplamentation, I'd consider getting him on a low dose of HGH. Maybe as low as 2iu's per day. Some here will say, "2iu's isn't going to do anything for him" but that's BS. He'll feel younger, look younger, his skin will look more healthy and he'll be able to lay wood like the clock got turned back 10 years. If that doesn't work put him on a gram of test a week. haha

Seriously why would you do this unless you plan on getting him on juice? He just started working out and there is no telling how long he will continue. Right now is the best time to do it naturally. IMO I would think that him doing exactly what he is doing is perfect. His physical should tell him if he has any serious problems such as High blood pressure whish is a very serious problem but also very easily treatable both by diet and cardio and /or BP meds. right now he is not ready for juice and even if he was I would think an HRT clinic would be his best bet. The best advice or gift you could give to him is a book on nutrition. That would be priceess in his health
 
shit, the way my dad has lived his life and health issues he has/had hes said he feels likes hes 60+.

If you don't live near him there aint shit you can do.
He eats like shit and therefore feels like shit.
that said it is good he's trying...tell him to be patient.

I dont know why everyone is saying for your dad to get bloodwork. Just have him get with a dietician and possibly a PT at Ballys. Along with consistant excercise, better or good diet, and a yearly medical physical. That should cover what he needs. Unless you want to go one step further and recommend a Open MRI full body scan or CT Angiogram.
