Top Weight Training Secrets for Overall Health & Longevity | Dr. Mark Hyman

[@margrose5]

Excellent video! I’m an almost 74 year old woman. I’ve been doing resistance training in addition to regular walking for over four years now and am stronger than ever. At least 4-5 times a week workouts, I use 20 lb weights for shoulder presses. It’s definitely phenomenal for mental health! Thanks for all you do!

[@scp240]

It took me a long time to begin, but I'm working out (lifting) twice a week at a local gym, and it is making a huge difference in every respect that Dr. Hyman mentions in the video. At 72, I'm actually adding muscle and decreasing my body fat, I'm perceptibly stronger and more energetic, and overall I just feel better. My blood work also reflects some benefits, my fasting insulin decreased by about 50%, along with a similar decrease in hs-CRP, for example.

Dr Hyman is so kind , straight forward and down to earth. God bless u doctor ❤

[@johnf8609]

Great advice! 🏋️‍♂️ I'm 69 yo and I'm in the gym 5x a week and mix it up with resistance training, cardio, and yoga. I also walk around 7 miles a day. I divide them into 2-3 walks after a meal.

[@8minhealthtips]

It's surprising to learn that resistance training can improve mental health more effectively than some traditional therapies. This really encourages people to start with simple exercises, as even just a few minutes a day can provide significant benefits for both the mind and the body.

[@DIDYOUSEETHAT172]

All true I suffered mild PTSD, when ever things started closing in my first instinct was to go to the gym. Does wonders in many ways.

[@juliannacalifornia]

I recently signed up for your Function Health lab tests. It was extremely enlightening I had no idea my ferritin was so low and then explains a lot of my symptoms. I'm working on fixing it. Looking forward to the program's 6-month test.

[@simonliebe7369]

So much additional info. So much answers to a bunch of questions we did not ask.

[@debmanrique6466]

I'm 62, still working, and exercise in the bathroom at work- squats, planks. By the end of the day I've done all my reps

[@picmenose]

Always so helpful, and inspiring!!

Loved watching Dr. Hyman as he provided expert testimony to the Ways and Means Committee!

[@cafetero7778]

I am a 67 year old man, and my routine is zone 2 training and VO2 Max 4 days of the week and the other 3 strength training. It is amazing. Do not forget to exclude alcohol, and to include good nutrition and 7-8 hours of quality sleep.If possible include Farmer's walk.

[@lifetalkwithDusie]

I feel better after implementing your teachings Doctor. Thank you for your content

Good information. Thanks 😊

Well said 👍

[@kennixox262]

I'm in my early 60's in the gym almost daily, work with a trainer twice weekly and not only feel and look great; my blood panels according to my doctor agrees. The gym that I go to, there is a fair number of "older" gym members who work out frequently along with everyone else. All different ages, shapes and sizes and from beginner to highly advanced body builders. Starting out at the gym can be intimidating but that can be easily overcome. For those not familiar on how to use the exercise equipment and routines, I would would urge novices to seek advice from a trainer.

[@trialsrob214]

Everyone on my moms side of the family never exercised a day in their life and they all lived into their 80’s, on my dads side they were all hard working physical labor workers and died in their 70’s, I’ve worked out all my life and plus being a laborer and now I’m 62 I do weights and cycling, I competed in sports starting at a young age all the way up until I was in my 40’s. I had a stroke 9 years ago and have so many medical problems. I eat healthy as well but no matter what I do I still have medical problems, I would hate to think how bad off I would be if I didn’t try to take care of myself. And yes I’m pre diabetic despite trying to stay away from sugar

[@HatovimLeTayis]

All solid advice. But you skipped the most fundamental part of working out. Especially if you want to lift weights after 30. Your core stability. A proper core stability work-out can be the difference between smooth lifts and injury-inducing lifts. Everyone should do at least one core work-out every week. It will improve your flexibility, mobility, muscle endurance, cardio and general posture.

[@LoveKills70]

What are some core exercises U can at home

[@gyanibastola6729]

Very useful information. Thank for sharing your insights.❤

[@user-je1sf6pc6q]

It’s okay to begin with body weight and light weights high reps as resistance. But for menopausal women, low reps & HEAVY weight are KEY. YOU MUST LIFT HEAVY SHIT. That and sprint interval cardio instead of just steady state activity like walking or biking. Hyman doesn’t touch on the polarized training that women require to overcome hormonal changes in menopause. Look up Dr Stacy Sims if you’re reading this & you’re a woman reaching menopause. DR. STACY SIMS. You’re welcome. 20:55

[@nanettealegado6190]

You sum up beautifully all the benefits of resistance training. You are one of the doctors I listen to when I started my health journey in 2021.

[@barkleymencer2434]

Thank you

[@cadlac1533]

Wow ! your numbers that you mentioned pretty scary. Appreciated for all information . I do like swimming, walking, dancing and QiGong. I have been taking a lot of fresh air during walking in he park near my house.

[@debbieparsons1366]

Dr Hyman I absolutely love love love you and all that I've learned from you....however, quoting a study from the American Heart Assoc when in the past they have been outed for bad research and nefarious funding in my opinion just brings confusion to the people trying to figure things out. Do we believe them or do we not believe them?

[@jeannie2109]

@DrHyman Do you need to modify weight training etc. If you already have Osteoporosis & Osteopenia? What do you suggest to help reverse it without medication? Thank you!

[@redParmar2423]

For everyone reading this, finding the banned book called “the hidden herbs” by anette ray should be your top priority

Muscle DICTATES metabolism!💪💪

[@elizabethanderson2968]

It upsets me to watch these types of videos, as my mother is bedridden with spinal fractures due to advanced osteoporosis, advanced cervical spondylosis, now kyphosis. She eats very well, supplements with vits and mins, takes natural supps like fermented turmeric, black garlic, blackseed oil, plenty of water, walks in park in wheelchair for fresh air, Vit D, plus Vit D supps... but her lack of movement is such an issue, as she literally cant stand for too long at all and is very weak, with bad muscle atrophy. Tried hydro pool but need heated ones as she gets cold instantly from lack of bodyheat, and heated pools are expensive to use and only via private methods. She has bad stomach issues as well, but we got her off nasty acid blockers after ten years of malabsorption and malnutrition. Ginger and Turmeric really helps.

[@datraass]

Sorry to hear, diet alone cannot do it.

[@Lorrieonline]

🙏 Sounds like you and your mom make a great team. I too have had (infusions induced) osteo and more.

[@lindajones4849]

Being bed ridden or wheelchair bound will come inevitably cause and perpetuate muscle atrophy. Two suggestions: is she a candidate for kyphoplasty ( cement used to heal a vertebral fracture)? Consult with physiatrist ( rehab specialist) . Is she a candidate for bed exercises and wheelchair exercises? How old is your mom? Has she or her docs considered medications for osteoporosis? If she is spontaneously fracturing it may be worth considering bone medications. Even if she remains wheelchair bound she needs an exercise program to prevent the consequences of being immobile which are pneumonia, deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolus . Good luck.

Doc, I am 86 yrs old single male, I reach this age without strength training or lifting weights. Never been in a gym. I put more emphasis on socializing, brain stimulation and life enjoyment as priority. I do social dancing as an exercise, I dance various Int’l std ballroom dances, Latin dance, salsa, bachata, etc. it stimulate my brain, socialize. It’s a mater of choice to enjoy life. I prefer to hold a rhythmic lady than holding a cold steel.

I followed an advise from an article in neuro science magazine many yrs ago that dancing to various type of dances, stimulate your brain, make you look younger. Just speak for yourself it’s fine

They ate more real food then our generation and did not have all the fillers, HFC and forever chemicals in their food and water. Genetically, I hope you take after your gran, my Great Uncle lived to 104 and did not smoke. Also self rolled cigarettes vs commercial was a thing too. Less chemicals in self rolled. And those generations moved more they were not always sitting as much as the generations after them.
