Building Muscle After 50 - The Definitive Guide

[@kicknadeadcat]

I’m 67 and was prediabetic. Had to lower my carbs substantially and increase my fat. Lost 25 pounds getting close to seeing my abs and I’m building muscle. Only eat two meals a day. No snacks and water at night and I fast between 12 and 16 hours a day. I’ve gone from 35 inch waist to a 30 inch waist. My blood glucose is in the normal range now, my blood pressure is excellent. And my Acid reflux has disappeared. All that in seven months. There is no one-size-fits-all diet. But consistency is key.

[@shaneg0070]

Congrats!! I’m a few years behind you but I did the same. On my 50th Birthday just over three years ago I watched a fasting video and immediately went to an 18/6 intermittent fasting plan. Dropped SIXTY pounds in 5 months and have veins in my biceps again. I’m watching this as I’d like to add some more muscle ahead of a Caribbean trip in April.

I’m 53 and had a heart attack four months ago. I started my comeback by walking and now I’ve added strength training three days a week. I’ve learned a lot from your channel and it’s helped me progress. It would be great if you did a video for the men who have had a heart attack since it definitely changes what you can do, eat, and take as far as supplements.

[@clsherian]

I’m 52 and I haven’t had a heart attack yet but when my A1c was high, I started walking 15 minutes then 30 minutes now I’m up to an hour. I’m gonna start doing the strength training, but I have a lot of shoulder pain. I’m gonna start with the lifting again. I used to be a weightlifter when I was young. I’m a firefighter, so my work schedules, gonna dictate when I can work out. I can’t go hard on my shift days. I need to be able to do the job. And not be spaghetti noodle arms walking around.

Getting buff is a nice benefit, but setting yourself up for longevity should be the goal.

[@LisaMurphy]

I'm 65 and I I've always used light weights to keep myself reasonably toned along with some easy exercises. I eat all organic. Two months ago I decided I wanted to look more muscular for a music video I'm making and I was shocked at how quickly my muscles improved, especially my stomach! In just two months I started getting great definition. I eat mostly raw veggies and some fish and beef, sprouted whole wheat bread, whole milk and I drink one glass of red wine a day. The only supplements I take are vit C and D3 and also 50 mg dhea. (guys shouldn't take dhea but it has no ill effects for me, been taking it for five years.) So my point: YES you can build muscle over 50 and also over 60!

My maintenance calories are about 2200-2400 (6' 190).

@@michaelfera5515 What about his statement about a "healthy" carb? There is no such thing. Humans don't require carbohydrate for energy.

[@muscleman4370]

@@crand20033 generally on compound movements, 3-5 sets is good and 10-12 reps. As for rest periods, if your breathing is labored, start the next set as soon as your breathing nears normal pace again. All of these can be adjusted depending on factors such as how you feel that day, what intensity factors are you using and what your goals are. For example: lighter weights and higher reps(12-15) with 45 second rest between sets keeps you breathing faster and your metabolism up to build endurance; heavier weights with lower reps(6-8) with rests of 2 mins to build strength; and moderate weights with reps in the 8-12 range for building size(hypertrophy).

[@GIguy]

Thank you my friend! I had a lot of doubts until I found your video. I have always desperately wanted to start working out and have a really good body for once in my life. Long story short, until I was 20 I was always a stocky guy, at 5‘11“ tall, how is usually around 180 to 200 pounds, but then at 20 I was diagnosed with severe stage four Crohn’s disease, one year after that, my large intestine ruptured, killing me for three minutes, they found intestinal cancer growing on the outside of my intestine. From 20 until now that I am just turning 54 on Thursday, I’ve had 37 surgeries, four relapses of the cancer, they removed over 95% of my G.I. tract, I spent more time in the hospital than out of it, and from all the chemotherapy, radiation, surgeries, and medications, I developed nine other chronic illnesses, and I take more medication then both of my elderly parents combined. Last month my kidneys failed, I nearly died again, they determined the tiny amount of intestine I have left isn’t enough to keep my internal organs functioning, as I cannot absorb enough fluids and/or nutrients, so they have put me on home IV infusions every second day for the rest of my life, and for the first time since before I was diagnosed, I feel strong again, and confident to the point where I am ready to go back to the gym, but I didn’t think I would be able to build any muscle at this age. My biggest problem is nutrition, with almost no intestine, it’s very difficult for me to take in the necessary nutritional requirements I will need, I do take a lot of supplements that I have to grind into a powder, but again my body only absorbs about 5% of anything I swallow, and I am wondering if any of your clients have had a similar problem? If so what did they do to overcome it? Basically what I need to know is what are the most essential nutrients for building and maintaining muscle? If I can figure that out, I can have that added to my intervenous treatments, that way it goes directly into my bloodstream and bypasses my stomach. It is one hell of a diet, my last surgery was in 2018, since then I have gone down to 130 pounds, had no appetite, and could not gain any weight, but now that we know the problem and I can supplement things with my infusions, I’ve managed to put on 15 pounds, and I feel so much stronger, I just need to know what are the essential building materials for muscle mass? I can easily get it in liquid form, and inject it into my IV bag when I’m doing my infusions. I take .5 mL of testosterone every week, because my body stopped making it due to all the surgeries and cancer, but that alone is not enough. Any and all advice you can offer would be incredibly appreciated, I have years of catching up to do, and because I am now living on permanent long-term disability, I have a lot of time on my hands, and I figured what if I got to lose? I have been dying to have a body like yours all my life, but because of my health, I just haven’t had the opportunity until now, and because I represent only 0.05% of all gastrointestinal patients, the doctors cannot help me, because my case is so extremely rare. Anyways, just wanted to give you the background so you can understand what I might possibly need to get me started. I’m a very determined man, I don’t do things half assed, when I start this I am going to keep going until I get what I want. I’m confident I can do this, the doctors told me on five separate occasions I was going to die for certain, I’m still here, so I don’t normally listen to statistics, I just listen to the goals except for myself, and keep working as hard as possible until I achieve them. It won’t be easy, but it will be so worth it, for the first time in my life I’ll be able to look in the mirror and be proud, and not ashamed. I have an ileostomy bag, along with a permanent IV line, a.k.a., PICC line, and a heavily scarred abdomen, but the muscles are still there, I can deal with everything I’ve gone through, I can deal with the bag on my side, and the IV line sticking out of my arm, but I can’t deal with having no muscle anymore. Thanks again, all the best!

TJ... wow have you had a tremendous journey with your body! I am so impressed thinking about everything you've gone through... You inspire me bro... and it's so awesome to see your continuous fire to improve, heal, and do everything you can considering what your GI tract has been through. 🔥 I totally agree that you can make gains with dialed in IV nutrition and your TRT. If I were in your shoes looking to build muscle and operating your body, here's exactly what I would do: I'd take a high dose of Branch Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) in your IV. Those help with muscle growth. I'd shoot for around 90-150g protein per day. I'd make sure 15g of that protein comes in the form of BCAAs... ideally in a few divided servings (3 per day). I'd make sure I'm getting enough total calories through whatever carb source. I would IV feed AFTER lifting... and pretty much lift weights and/or do calisthenic strength exercises every day (resting when the body needs it). Make sure to stay well hydrated with balanced electrolytes as managed by IV and blood work. I would also take 3-5g of Creatine Monohydrate ORALLY. Take it pretty much ongoing to support muscle growth & energy production. Keep kicking ass TJ. You are an inspiration bro. -Dr. A

The human body is a remarkably complex, adaptable machine, capable of adapting to almost anything, and I’m able to prove it. Thanks again, take care, cheers!

Sure the compound movements are key, but I wouldn't rule out the isolation exercises as they will assist in any weak point training of a particular body part. I will say this though, I didn't start deadlifting until 8 months ago and it's really improved my overall strength, back density and testosterone...and I'm 48.

I'm 55 and totally agree. The basics are a given but iso. lifts done properly also are needed for overall shape, and health of connective tissues.

@@Fitfatherproject thanks for the tips. I believe people got caught up on the term "meal". At 55 I need all of the help I can get. Four small meals are easier on the body than 2 or 3 large ones. If possible, eat them earlier in the day. You'll have all night to digest them. Thanks again.

[@Lee-70ish]

I built up and became much fitter ( muscles do not mean you are fit) I'm 64 . No secrets, loose weight first. I Don't do bench press or squats Dodgy hip and right bundle branch heart problem. Lost 5.5 stone 44 down to 32 inch waist. Diet porridge or scrambled eggs for breakfast, lunch soup with added pulses. Evening meal chicken salads ect. Weekends enjoy your life have what you want.. Suppliments are just products taken from available food to make money . You do not need them. You will never look like a twenty year old don't kid yourself but you can still look good for your age . The biggest weapon in older people for impoving their selves is experience and knowledge Only you know your own body no one else ,use your brain before your brawn it's not a competion (only with yourself). If it hurts don't bloody do it you can permanently damage things .remember when you were 20 a bruise would heal in a few days, bet it takes a lot longer now Same goes for muscle building. I cycle 6 days between muscle groups Chest arms shoulders legs cardio waist. It's worked for me and not cost a bomb to do it.

Pretty good video. I am 57 and have trained regularly 4-5 times a week since my teens. I was in the British Army and was always a keen sportsman. I am now 57 and still training. I train in the gym and cycle. My knees are pretty knackered from years of running, often with a pack. Cycling keeps my heart and lungs working and ensures good VO2 Max. My gym routine in resistance based interval (HIT) training focusing on using my own bodyweight. I incorporate Callisthenics techniques working on good style, a full body workout core exercises. I try to always keep the heart rate up and ensure always that I do 10 mins of warm-up yoga-based stretching and another 10 mins warm down. Flexibility is really important as are the core exercises. Strong back and stomach, plus flexibility is the key to ensuring worn joints and vertebrae stay supported and stable. However, do some research; don't do loads of sit-ups. There are far better safer exercises for stomach and core strength. The nutritional points in the video are all valid.

really great information sir . I request you to please make a video for the people's want to build muscles/loose weight with type 2 diabetes.

[@gtm5650]

Kavita Singh The best exercise by far for any diabetic issues would be Squats. Use light weight with high reps(14-20) rep range. Do 2 warmup sets and 4 working sets and finish with 2 with same weight as warmup sets. After Squats you choose the other exercises since I don't know you strength or fitness level but I assure you Squats will help tremendously since it involves the largest muscles of the body. Good luck.

[@davelogan77]

My schedule, Sunday, Wednesday. Full body: Cable Curls, Cable Pull Down (triceps), Cable Rows, Cable Lats, Cable Flys, Shoulder Machine, Leg Press Machine, Let Ext. Machine, Calf Machine, Hamstring Machine, Leg Lifts bench (abs), Incline Press Machine, Decline Press Machine. Look to be maxed out after last two reps in each set. Pre-workout protein shake and 3g Creatine with lots of water. In every set I am always looking to add slight amounts of weight to really max out toward the end of each set (hence so many cable and machine workouts). Good sleep and decent diet. Been doing this for 10 weeks and I am seeing decent results.

[@tonytouch145]

David Logan that’s sounds decent for a 2 day per week workout but is that the order you are doing it in? If so you are going to want to change the order of that by doing your smaller muscle groups at the end of the workout. As in cable pull down then cable rows, then biceps. Next chest to shoulders to triceps. You don’t want to tire your arms and shoulders out before you workout your chest and back because you need your arm strength to workout the major muscle groups. You’ll be able to max out higher if you switch that around. Also you can reverse the workout from one day to the other by starting with lower body to upper and then upper to lower. You’re always going to be more tired at the end of your workout and that last muscle group can suffer. Maybe that wasn’t your order but just figured to give some advice if that’s the case.

[@davelogan77]

Whats up? - Thanks! That’s good advice. The list I gave was in random order, but what you suggest has merit, I will change it up, and go biggest to smallest. I also recently added one set of “21’s” to my bicep workout, and tricep workout - dang that helped a ton. Seeing great results there.

[@tonytouch145]

David Logan Good to hear. 21s are great to finish off your arm workouts. I love that burn.

[@davelogan77]

​@@tonytouch145 OK, I had to search for a long time to find this comment string so I could come back and reply. I tried what you suggested, and it really had a positive impact on the amount of energy and power I was able to dedicate to my major muscle groups (larger muscles first). I hardly ever started with pressing chest workouts. But now it is my first, wow!, I was able to immediately up my weight by 10-15-20lbs! I was stuck around 120, now I'm 135, 140 and plan to increase today (today is workout day!)... So,... Thank you for the advice, it helps me better manage my energy, and helped me better align to more proper weigh/per workout, am seeing gains! Thank you.

Intensity and recovery! I’m 53 years old and have adopted a HIT style workout program a few months ago .( Arthur Jones, Mike Mentzer, Dorian Yates ) My results have been outstanding and I only spend around 2 hours a week in the gym! One working set to muscular failure, 3 exercises per muscle or muscle group, 35-40 minutes workouts, 3-4 times a week with a minimum of 3-4 days before working a muscle or muscle group! After being in and out of the gym for most of my adult life, for me at least, this format has been the most effective ( by far ) in gaining muscle and strength!

[@Fitfatherproject]

It’s certainly a good start! For muscle building, we’ll want to make sure you’re adding progressive resistance ... so continuing with your same routine that may mean doing pull-ups with a backpack that has a weight in it and pushups with a weight vest etc... One of the benefits of weight training (over calisthenics) is that it’s easier to progress on your exercises week to week with incremental weight increases (5-10lbs). Keep up the good work!

[@Mani_Matter]

ED Drayton do you train legs too?

[@jmerlo4119]

I suppose all this info is somehow correct. However, in my case, age has made not one single bit of difference, other than accumulated wisdom (I guess). If you do not allow a child to move and play, he will soon develop a hunch back, a bloated belly, and weak arms and legs. Unfortunately, that is exactly what most adults do to their bodies. My advise, keep mentally young and copy children's movements whenever you can and on a daily basis. That is my personal experience and, by the way, I am being serious.

[@aaronnarsavage3640]

Thanks for the video and all that commented. Here's my deal which is very complicated - 1. I'm currently 49 years old and will be 50 is a little more than 3 weeks from today by the time I submit my comment in a few minutes. 2. For the most part, between the ages of 21-46, both my physique and my strength on certain 'big muscle' movement exercises (bench press, back squat, etc) didn't falter much. I took a lot of 'pride' in that I could bench just as much at age 45 as I did at age 25, being the same body weight, and looking very similar physically in the mirror. 3. Then Covid it. The gyms shut down for months. I did very little at home, but would occasionally workout at home until my gym opened back up approximately 4-5 months later. I remember my first day back at the gym and literally lifting the same weight on exercises I did when I was a senior in high school. I laughed at myself at the time thinking, "This was expected, but if anyone can bounce back it's you" (based upon my consistent body weight, strength, and physique for over 2 decades pre-Covid). 4. I've never gotten it back. Not the strength nor the physique. As far as I know, I never had Covid....in fact, I had both initial shots of Pfizer + the booster, but it just stinks. I've often wondered if it was just my time to finally "get old" or if it was that plus a combination of getting old + not working out for months on end + perhaps the vaccines? Anyways, my once very prideful self brought me to this video as I'm soon to be 50. Thanks for reading.

[@empres8513]

old? not at all. vaccines !

[@transformationthomas]

I feel your pain, Aaron. I got injured at 50 with one shoulder and the pain and limited movement since have changed all my training. But.....I have recalibrated my head. I have totally come away from looking at the weights I am lifting. I have put in super slow sets (12 seconds per full rep), higher rep sets (30+) and cut out all exercises that hurt me. And unbelievably, with great nutrition, I entered my first ever natural bodybuilding competition at 51. It feels really, really crap knowing that some of my regression is just getting old but that is something I cannot change. Good luck, Aaron! 💪
