52 years old, been working out 5-10 times a week since the age of 12(yes, still do double sessions of cardio at least). A health teacher owned one of the gyms I belonged to, his advice on supplements was the best I've heard as well as the cheapest. Coffee or tea before you work out, caffeine works as well as an energy boost as any high dollared supplement. As far as getting motivated to work out if you are looking for a secret it just isn't going to happen. It is simply an unpleasant part of the day, kind of like getting out of bed at 5:30. Can't think about it, just have to do it. There's a reason its called working out, if it was fun it would be called drinking
