Steve Ramsden: The path from health problems to changing your body at 60
Following his back pain and the family conversation, Steve decided to completely change his exercise habits and began training. The results achieved surprised both family and friends. He is the father of two children, has one grandson, and hopes that his children will make him a grandfather again in the future. One of them, Dan Ramsden, owns his own personal training startup, BoFit, in Wakefield.
According to his own statements, it was a quite complete year. He stopped eating unhealthy foods and drinking so much alcohol and began an exercise routine that quickly helped him lose weight, gain agility, and then gain muscle mass. He believes that the key to everything was being really very disciplined.
The discipline and training that led Steve Ramsden to change his life
As soon as he felt depressed about hurting his back while carrying a patient, his life changed. He began training several times a week and changed his diet, which quickly caused him to lose weight and improve both his breathing and circulation. Over time, he adapted to his new routine and managed to sleep better.
This made him adapt quickly to the new lifestyle and encouraged him to continue being disciplined when it came to exercise. In this way, the change in his muscle mass began to be noticed very quickly, becoming a bodybuilder at 60 years of age in less than 12 months.
