Can You Be Your STRONGEST at 40?

[@ButteryBros1]

DOES JULIAN DESERVE A COLD HOT DOG?

[@charlenechua6073]

Yes on Jules

[@danbradley2617]

💯

[@kegandrown3162]

Oh yes

[@buddawg]

🤤

[@KainKong]

100%

[@erinhart4825]

Julian sandbagged so hard. GLIZZY THAT BRO IMMEDIATELY! Also holy shit you guys are strong ✌🏼

[@hxrmusic]

MANNNNNNNnnnn this is so great. I joined a Crossfit gym at 38, and only really started showing up around 40. At 42 im in the best shape ive been in since my swimming days (in my teens), and the strongest Ive ever been. Love you guys, keep up the great work.

[@ButteryBros1]

Welcome to the best chapter.

[@alexanderryskiewich4694]

Love it, I'm 32 (started CF 2.5 years ago). Feeling my strongest/most athletic

[@lindseyhiggins5111]

YEEEEESSSSS 🔥 thank you for doing this series! I'm 41, started CrossFit at 36, and I am the fittest I have ever been! Shout it to the rooftops, some of us just start hitting our stride at 40 🎉

[@dormantmenace]

No.. plain and simple. And here is why.. yes you can be the strongest and fittest YOU have ever bin at 40. Most deffinetly. But that just means you didn't reach your full potential in your 20s or early 30s. That's all. Young strength is 100% real. Weather is testosterone or competitiveness driving it. Or not knowing you shouldn't do that.. Basically you get full mentall assistance. Cause you havnt learned why its a bad idea yet. As you get older and need near maximum output. Your body will tell your brain...no! Bad idea! Anyone that gave everything they could muster in there 20s and is now 40.. has zero doubt of this. It's why pro athletes arnt typically on the field at 40.

[@thatsmgpurseidkyou6191]

The level of energy when Heebs hit his bench PR…… maaaaannn I got CHILLS and was LITERALLY screaming at my phone.

[@ButteryBros1]

Cole actually hit 11 backsquats at 372 here!

[@TheHazchic]

I thought I counted 11!

[@JodieTickle]

Awesome episode 🫶 I also need to take a second for Katherine at 62 years young 🙌🏻 what a legend!

[@lizoffhaus9628]

I'm so beyond stoked for this series. No group of people inspires me more to do fitness. I've always feared aging but you guys give me confidence that the end doesn't have to be in sight ❤

[@DomMcStraw]

Boys ... thoroughly enjoyed this episode ... and most importantly, the energy everyone had for one another when going after new PR's. At 54, I train at home, and as such, heavy on the music to push me through. I retested myself last month and recorded them. As Jules said, recorded for future kids (in my case, so my 17 and 21 year old could see what dad is still capable of). Box squats now preferred 'as an older gentleman' ahum ahum - 2x 180kg (360lb), bench @ 150kg (330lb), and deadlift 200kg (440lb) and the next day, hit a cheeky 227kg (500lb) just to see if I could.

[@ButteryBros1]

Gotta let them kids KNOW

[@DomMcStraw]

@@ButteryBros1Just keeping them, and me, honest

[@joshuabeeker]

Epic episode!!!!!! This shows the importance of nutrition, sleep, training regimen, and the environment you place yourself in. Congrats on all the big lifts, can’t wait to see the next one!!!

[@davehelt]

One of my favorite episodes of all time. Motivating and entertaining at the same time. Congrats to all the PBs!

[@danbradley2617]

Love this and what timing! I’m 39 and turn 40 in April. I took on the same challenge after I turned 39 dedicating myself to be the fittest I’ve been by 40. Last weekend I took my first podium spot at a CrossFit competition and I’m only just getting started. Keep on being an inspiration Heebs 👊🏼

[@gabriellegosselin6603]

I love this! Especially as a fellow 1983 baby 😍 Way to go Heber! Looking forward to seeing the rest of the series

[@carleelomas1037]

Glizzy up Julian!!!!!!!!! But seriously bring the next episode out already it was hella motivational

[@alex23011]

Rooting for you to keep progressing and inspiring people. You bros deserve absolutely everything you have earned and MUCH more! what a vid... Cole is something else lol those front squats were nasty. I have severed my achilles, broke my other leg's knee, and have chronically injured back from growing up athletic, but without focused on recovery. I am turning 32 and this year (2024), I have got my 315 deadlift back and I'm trying to reclaim that 275 squat. Scale for life! I really felt that energy when you hit it at the start of the video, Heebs. Keep it up, guys!!

[@sarahyoungmacdonald2453]

As someone over 40, I totally love this concept! Can't wait for future episodes! And can I also point out what a cool hype guy Cole is?!

[@ButteryBros1]

Stoked you enjoyed it! Cole is a legend.

[@robinmitchellrobinmitchell3669]

Watched this driving back from the farm after a long day on the grind and just brought so much energy and joy! Love the content, love the joy and @Julian deserves a hot dog for a Herculean effort. @Mars having 2 years to go till 40 you are definitely an inspiration. Much love from the beautiful islands of Fiji 🇫🇯 Vinaka and keep it buttery bros!

[@libbyrodriguez2476]

Love this series already. I was smiling like a goon the entire time.

[@ButteryBros1]

Heck ya!!! More to come

[@ryanstarr983]

Just turned 45 last weekend and in the best shape of my life. Loved watching you guys getting after it! Huge smiles the whole time. Getting buttery with it! Cheers

[@JaredHathaway]

WE NEED TO GET THE BUTTERY BROS TO 200K🔥

[@ButteryBros1]

TELL EM

[@TempestMia]

From one 40 year old to another, loving this topic, hehe

[@DonovanLinge-vd4cn]

I do this every year for my birthday and now I'm more pumped up to get in and get all new PR's! Congrats! Inspirational as always. Goals are: BS - 400lbs, BP - 260lbs (broke my hand two months ago), DL - 450lbs. Jules should glizzy up for short changing himself.

[@ButteryBros1]

Love this!!!

[@joefuruseth4016]

Awesome :) It wasn't necessarily my plan but since I turned 40 I have PRed several lifts as well... It started with the quarterfinals in 2022 when we had to do the CFT and I managed a PR in all three. Who knew! Since then I have PRed my C&J and snatch as well :) Nice work guys and Julian should definitely enjoy himself a cold dog (or two).

[@lillithsternin7428]

1:25 - 1:30 I see no changes... 😀😆 I enjoyed that. I've always enjoyed BB videos (and I don't do crossfit) but the bros are stepping it up !! So much growth!

[@JaredHathaway]

Julian definitely played it safe😆 #EatTheGlizzy

[@jasonrivera4413]

Holy crap what a great episode!! I was in the living room hooting and hollering for ya Heebs!! At 50 my DL is 375 and I’m hoping for 400 with this strength cycle we are in. Mad props bro!!! Great job.

[@ButteryBros1]

Thanks for watching!

[@chrissteele3022]

51 year old here. Started CrossFit 6 years ago. Never lifted weights before. Back Squat PR - #330. Deadlift PR - #355. Bench - #180. But I feel really good for my age. Age is just a number! Love this video.

[@timdawson6105]

I love this video!! Love the energy and the hype! Great content! Keep the butter coming!

[@roryedwards4281]

All you guys are nothing but positive energy, keep doin what your doin family, 100

[@ButteryBros1]

Spreading butter spreading joy

[@ajkeence81]

I started Crossfit at 40. I'd been a gym rat for some time but the last 5-ish years prior to Crossfit I was not disciplined at all. Relatively overweight, out of shape, and not near as strong as I used to be. Today at 42 I have pr'd every lift except my bench press and deadlift but am closing in on both right now. I've set my 2024 goals high. 375 clean and jerk, 275 snatch, 600 deadlift, 500 squat, 350 bench.

[@johnmichaelloggins8006]

Aesthetically Mars’ squat is fantastic!!! Way to go Heebs!

[@DaytimeAdventure]

Julian for sure has to eat a glizzy for sandbagging

[@joshhaimes]

Great series, awesome to hear everyone in the comments committing to fitness in their 40s and beyond! I turned 40 this month. Been CrossFitting for 10 years and am still catching the occasional PR. 3 years ago I set goals for myself to hit once I turned 40. There are 13 workouts - metcons (both short and long), strength (CrossFit Total), gymnastics, and olympic lifting. I hit my first goal today - my dead lift 1 rep max goal (actually rep'd it for 3).

[@ButteryBros1]

Heck ya!!

[@leshlycook5068]

Omg!, I was so pumped watching this…We’ll done Heebs - what an inspiration!, I was going to sleep in tomorrow, but I might just do some deadlifts in the morning… 💪💪

[@jonede869]

Let’s go Jules…let’s get that cold dog!

[@holwu]

Bros, great idea to start this series. Can´t wait to see the upcoming episodes. And yes: Jules has been sandbagging, those lifts looked easy!

[@cpt_constitution5719]

Did not think I could get that hyped for someone else working out in a video... but MAN, during that bench press session. WOW. I was rooting for everyone.

[@heathertimbrell573]

Turned 40 in July and definitely not at my fittest but this is inspiring, looking forward to seeing the next part of the series

[@GRH78]

One of the best ever episodes, what’s not to like enjoying seeing people hit PBs and Cole Sager hyping the scene to the max!

[@lisaduncan8650]

Love the series!!!! Keep these coming! This was so fun to watch!

[@ellokocruz10]

Man, what an awesome group of people. This motivated the crap out of me.

[@luladuncanizzy]

I'm 38 and obese but do CrossFit. I'm planning to be the fittest I've ever been when I get to 40! I'm buzzing

[@jasonrivera4413]

Keep pushing!!! I’m a bigger guy and have done CF for a couple years. Changed my life.

[@ButteryBros1]

That’s the spirit right there!!!

[@georgehealy8350]

This was exceptional guys, really enjoyed it, looking forward to the rest of the series

[@graceputan1971]

That was SO FUN to watch!! Epic energy 💪🏼🏋🏼‍♀️

[@jessicabennetts9043]

GU is Guam. Heebs, you are crushing 40. Also, awesome #470 lift Jules, you made it look easy.

[@stephkandray]

I just turned 40 in November. I’m 2 years into CrossFit but feel my fittest ever, even after being a college athlete. So fun to watch you PR 🎉

[@melissagregory9208]

Jules sandbagged so much! Even before the lifting I knew his goals were too low. GIVE THAT MAN A GLIZZY!!!! Now Heebs congrats on your 3 PRs that is impressive! Can't wait to see you bust through your other goals.

[@elktough777]

Yah fit and 40! I am 42 and I am also the fittest I have ever been due to consistency in my workouts and eating. Love the goals. Also yes Julian should definitely eat at least 1-3 hotdogs for lowballing his goals lol.

[@laurahinze7102]

Just turned 44 and I am in the best shape of my life and getting fitter every day. Age is just a number. Keep setting and meeting goals and you will never age!

[@kdaniellemoral]

Absolutely love this, and yes, Julian needs to eat a hot dog 😂

[@michaelwright9101]

Cole came down to the Festivus Games event I competed in and took pictures with everyone and even joined one of the events in an open lane just for fun. He’s a really good dude. I’m glad to see him on here.

[@benjaminklein4721]

This was the best video in a while. Hebs is the man!

[@jblanford926]

12 years ago When Cole first started doing CrossFit he came into our box and I challenged him in the workout and he just destroyed me been a fan of him ever since

[@tstede27]

This is awesome! Every episode just gets better and better! You guys always make my day and give me a sense of community! Thank you! Also huge shout out to Cole Sager!

[@ButteryBros1]

Cole is a legend!

[@emmanuelgarcon6488]

Amazing series. Amazing show of Strength fellas 💪🏼

[@chrishafner2021]

This was a really great video! thanks for being awesome!

[@andrebillups3099]

Had to drop a like, I love everything about this video 🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@geoffleblanc4958]

Great series coming up for sure, looking forward to it. Jules should have an entire package of glizzzies considering he def sandbagged!!!

[@Ffcita]

That was one hell of an episode 💪 Love it!!!

[@jparreno]

i'm 43 and am the fittest i've ever been... the most lean and the strongest i've been. Keep it up Buttery Bros!

[@maximadoc]

As someone knocking on 40, I really enjoyed this episode! Great work fella's!!

[@simonsezz1974]

❤❤❤ huge ups, great choice getting Cole in with yous, love the team.

[@RJvanVeen]

you guys got me psyched!!!!

[@zachhawkins2187]

You could feel the energy through the video! Love it haha. Test out days are the best days

[@ButteryBros1]

Thems the facts

[@deepunter4311]

Give Jules a glizzy! He's a powerhouse and would have liked to see him do more. Love you, bros!.

[@johnschulmeister3018]

Well done all!! This was inspiring to watch

[@ChrisLivingstoninUtah]

Best video in a long time! So much fun!!

[@stephaniefritz-leenstra474]

Watching all of you guys lifting was great... Julian is an animal!

[@dbnarz]

I love this video. More content like this please! 🎉😊

[@jasonrivera4413]

JULES…..GLIZZY UP BROTATO!! Lmao

[@DieselGlo]

As much as I'd love for Julian to pound a cold dog, I'm inclined to give him a break. He didn't call it when he hit his low ball lifts, he kept on going!

[@summerw5773]

I truly love you guys! Amazing amazing episode. I watched it like three times! Lol, Heaber Happy 40th birthday my goodness you look so much younger and so much stronger at 40!!!! I'm sure you know 40 is the new 20!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤🥰🍰🎂🎂🎂🍰

[@squidvicious944]

Julian was too safe with those numbers. Hot dog the man!!!

[@catg7695]

This was so hype. Congrats everyone.

[@chelseastone9877]

My favorite episode yet!

[@KO_Adventures]

I absolutely love this. I didn't start CrossFit until I was in my late 30's and want to just keep getting better! And Julian needs a dog!

[@PaulRyan1992]

Julian has to glizzy up!! 😂

[@chrispankey807]

Best video you guy's have put out in a long time...Maybe ever. Jules is my man, I just want to watch Die Hard with him and then go get ice cream. Also, watching Hebe's hit that bench was electric, congrats my man!

[@ButteryBros1]

Thank you thank you!!

[@dustinzab]

I stumbled across this two years later (must be search algorithms) and going to do more swings. I actually do at least once a week now. Question is what can you do to work on biceps with tennis elbow? I’ve tried changing to neutral grip but still hurts when I workout.

[@fitnessmattersnow]

Great energy, motivation and testosterone! Well done all of you fun guys!

[@mandymoore8785]

So inspirational!! Get it!

[@jorybulkley9260]

Great job! Maybe you mentioned it and I didn’t catch it, but curious what strength program you used? Also curious if you noticed much difference between approach at 40 and when you were younger? I’m 43 myself, found CF a few years ago and been trying to get stronger for past few years and gains seem to come slooowwwlly. Thanks

[@AlexisGarcia-3535]

This was awesome to see! With that much hype around me I could probably do anything lol

[@ryannekudla5354]

Julian definitely needs to eat a hotdog 😅

[@NoelNole1221]

Julian, gotta aim higher and believe in yourself more man! Think you gotta get ready for a hot dog

[@madsequil]

Its been a while time since I've cheered audibly at my screen whilst home alone

[@guilimax]

OMG this video got me FIRED UP! Great video guys, keep it up!

[@ButteryBros1]

Thanks! Will do!

[@bernardmoulton9536]

So pumped to train watching this “Let’s go”

[@gordonberridge9183]

Wow!!! 340 and 40 years old. I'm targeting 340 (155kg) at 40 this year. Keep smashing it champs.

[@meganruble6495]

It's all about the grind and cheering and yelling in the gym for one another! Yaaasssss!!!! 🤘🏻

[@stuartwisbey8687]

Julian sandbagged it! Great lifting boys!

[@arnalcantar2041]

One of your best ones in a long time

[@Gaiartemis]

This was so much fun!!! Great job everyone!
