My name is Howard- I am 61, as for the gym I don’t wish to give any impression of that I’m a know it all, but I have been Gym goers for nearly 47 years we were one of the pioneers and certainly not many people joined up or used the gym in the late ’70s. I joined the gym while I was at school, I was fairly big anyway, I’m about 5ft:6 fairly big wide shoulders at that time, and still, I think I was fairly fit today, at the time 15, 16 years old I did a lot of after school activities did a lot of sports in school and after school activities like football, swimming, subaqua diving and also basketball. When I left school I went to the gym it was 1978 when I joined the gym I used a wrestler’s gym which was exactly what I wanted I was mainly interested in Cardiovascular exercise with doing little weights, some bench press, bar curls and lateral pull down these days there are much more equipment are available in gym but we were fairly happy with what we had those days.
