Tom’s 40th B-day - Celebrating 25 Years of Pumping Iron!

Happy birthday, Tom! And thanks for all your work.

I am the one who say thank you!

I would never have achieved 5% Body Fat without your Burn The Fat Feed The Muscle. It is also the healthiest diet I ever tried.

Did I write "thank you"? Well, let me type it again: Thank you very much!

Happy Birthday!

Happy birthday man! You truly are a role model.

wow..Happy birthday Tom and many many more. You are a great guy and an asset to the fitness industry!

Hi Tom,

A very happy birthday to you! Hope you're celebrating by doing something fun!

Hey Tom, I'd like to see photos of your progress! Those beginning pictures would be great!

Happy Birthday Tom!
Today is my son's 9th birthday also ( I assume you are born on the 6th )! Leo's are GREAT!
I shall certainly inspire my children to take great care of their bodies as they grow up, you are a wonderful role model to all of us. 40 - YOU LOOK GREAT!

Happy Birthday, Tom! Many thanks and congratulations for touching and changing the lives of those who sees the stuff you write. :-)

Congratulations Tom on your 40th! Pretty sure i heard someone say just recently that 50 is the new 30, so 40 must make you... ?

Just want to say how incredible all your information is and how good the interview was on elitebody.com recently. Makes a big difference to actually hear the words, not just read them.

I am a personal trainer from Australia and i swear to all my clients/fellow trainers that your information is by far some of, if not the best out there.

Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou!

Hope you are enjoying a big cheat day for the 40!

Happy 40th birthday Tom.Keep up the good work

Happy Birthday, Tom! When I met you in March with Adam, remember me asking how old you were? I never would have guessed you were only one year older than myself.(I'll be 39 on Monday the 11th)
Hope you did sometihng fun!

I turned 40 a fortnight back myself. 0n my 39th birthday I made a pledge that before I reach 40 I should be in shape. I was 105 KG then and now I am at 83 Kg. Sheding lots of fat and gaining some good muscles.

You helped a lot friend. Your website helped a lot and your newsletters helped a lot

Thank you and Happy birthday

warm regards

HAPPY BIRTHDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!

Happy birthday, Tom! Thank you for sharing your experience and keeping us motivated!

40 sounds very young to me. At 57, and with 45 years of cycling, running, calisthenics to weights and Yoga, I join with you in the pleasures of exercise.

Your emails and web site are the one truly thoughtful and intelligent source I have found on the subject.

Keep up the excellent work for many, many years to come

Best Wishes

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GORGEOUS
...and thanks for info&inspiration: thanks to you, I do see my six pack, I'm eating better and have tons of energy while much younger women are whining how tired they are... :D
It's great to be fit&fab&forty!
Your no-nonsense articles and the way you say things straight make me smile every time.
Keep up the great work!

Happy Birthday, Tom. I'll hit 40 myself in November and, thanks to you, I will be doing it with abs showing. I've always been fairly fit, but lately I had taken on that "powerlifter" (big, fat bastard) look. After reading BFFM, I saw that I would indeed have to do at least some of the dreaded and despised aerobic work if I wanted to lean up. I had suspected as much for a while, especially after experimenting with extreme low carb and extreme low fat diets, but you really drove it home in an old school, "just do it" fashion.
Thanks for the brutal--but necessary--honesty and I wish you 40 more years of great health.

John

Congratulations and happy birthday.

I'm a late convert to your work and I'm enjoying it immensely.

Here's to another great 40 years.

Happy Birthday Tom, we are doing a 12 challange at my gym which would have been a big laugh for me once but since getting your help i am up to it so enjoy your forties as those fifties are just around the corner trust me i am there lol. have a great day. loraine xx

Happy birthday Tom,
Its great to know u r also leo. Well u r doing a great job educating people about how to keep fit and cherish life in a right way because where there is health , there is wealth.

Enjoy.

Happy Birthday Tom,

You are such an inspiration that even my 4 and 6 year old little boys know who you are. They used to want to look like Tom Venuto, now they want to look like Daddy.

Thank you,

great work buddy, i went from 110kg of all fat to 80kg muscle / 7% fat and 5 years of hard training, i am now 42, and did not think it was possible to keep growing, after 40, but you are showing it can be done without steroids.. the world will one day hear, the secret to staying young.

well done........ Happy birthday

Happy Birthday Tom... and Thank You, maybe I will see my 51st thanks to BFFM!

Hi Tom,

Happy 40th from Moscow, I beat you there by 10 months!

Tom u're hotter than ever!

Tom you are the best thanx for helping us..... i so healthy right now

Hi Tom, many happy returns on your 40th birthday. I am approaching 40 myself and agree with one of your comments as 30 is the new 50 ha ha! This is the first time that I have placed a comment on your blog and I do enjoy your email tips and articles. I am not a body builder as per say but enjoy at least 2 sessions per week mixed in with running at least 25 miles a week to keep under 20 stones in weight (reads better than in kg).
