When he said body amour for protection he is spot on. I didn't start weight training until 2013 when I was 42 at the time over weight at 324 lbs... Now 2023 this year marks my 10 year anniversary mile stone of weight training. I use to have issues with my back. Now looking back I am so glad I started building more muscle over the years and have not had the back issue since. I hope I'm that 65 year old guy in the gym still at it. It's never too late to start.

[@garyssimo]

I started in 73 and still at it 2023 No more 400 lb bench press for this codger.....

Fabulous 👏 this guy appears helpful with no hidden agenda like many people I watch getting interviewed 😅

I am a 62 year old female body builder, I have to work so hard to put muscle on, I am absolutely in love with the journey, what it has done for me, and how I look and feel! I could go on and on about benefits ESPECIALLY at this age! And let's talk about how proportions change when you sculpt and build muscle, then there is the butt, not only have I grown my glutes but it:s not sagging anymore. I deadlift 150 pounds and can I can"t wait to reach 200 one day!!!

[@BigBoaby-sg1yo]

I now do the Mike Mentzer ‘ high intensity training’ - going really heavy . Usually you need a spotter, but since I train at home now I use single a dumbbell , whereas I would grind out 15 reps+ with a 10kg bell ( bench press ) I struggle to get 5 reps- by giving myself a 20+ second negative, but very impressed with results . I also do isometrics every morning . The days of spending over 2 hours in the gym are over .

[@carolr.556]

How did you do it? I am 63 and I need to recover muscle for health’s sake and my energy and mental acuity etc. Where is a link to this program?

[@barbarab8182]

@@carolr.556start slowly, (I recently had a shoulder injury, lifting too heavy). Have you heard of TrainwithJoan? She has a good app (she's 75). Or get a good trainer to give you a program. Recovery time and mobility exercises are so important as you age.

underrated video, wow

[@dr.samierasadoonalhassani2669]

What are we doing and why?

[@seachangeau]

If its not fun i don't think i want to do it if it takes a whole lot of time in my overthehill phase - the cost benefit ratio has to be there.

[@dr.samierasadoonalhassani2669]

Plank how much tension you creat in squeezing your gluten,hands out to activate latessmus Doris ,it is not the duration of 10-20 seconds,it is how much tensio? You can do it on wall,counter,floor,fidge.

[@dr.samierasadoonalhassani2669]

2-3 times per week20-30 minutes strength training.This is minimal not optimal.Cardio is side dish and resistance training is the main dish,level 2 level, cardio take steps quick,jogging..,brisk walking,HIIT.

[@BigBoaby-sg1yo]

Don’t forget isometrics .

[@garyssimo]

My training partner was pro golpher Bill Malley in 1980 I bet he knows him. Bill was a long drive champion in Hayward Ca. Missed the US tour by one shot and was on the Euro tour. Sadly I lost touch with him. He is a wonderful guy!

[@monjettgraham2989]

Few things are a turn off like having to listen to some trainers personal experiences when you just want to hear instruction. I am a trainer and i don’t waste peoples time by talking about my personal experiences…..unless they ask. Please instruct.

[@wiltonpt1]

Ive tried I’m 63. I don’t put on any muscle And as we age the molecular signals including insulin and protein are a lot slower and don’t work as well any longer. My genetics is just like that. I keep working on my character which is the real body and mind armor I need

[@leonardoiglesias2394]

Sorry, after min 36:15 I dont understand anything.

[@virgilchristopherson3626]

Looking for love in all the wrong places. but do you do Buddy Holly songs, You look like him. That'll be the day.... You put on a great video, I did learn a lot from you, I'm 75 and still get out 100 push ups a day. Some day's it's not easy.

[@leadimentoobrien1221]

I can't get proper form for planks. Can't do em

[@kisms8590]

This is for masses, not for someone who wants to add serious muscle mass and get ripped.

I love all the info except the diet info especially for older folks who need more protein. Not plant protein it's not efficient doesn't have the needed amino acids. Eat meat!! It's all there everything needed for building muscle. Buy from local ranchers if you are worried about clean sources.

[@theswitchnutritionlab]

This is not true

[@theswitchnutritionlab]

All plants provide everything needed except vitamin B12

[@EMA-dq2so]

@@theswitchnutritionlab the kind of vitamins in plants are not as bioavailable as they are in muscle meat. And you would need to eat way more calories to get the protein you need to build muscle.

[@nosaradan]

@@theswitchnutritionlabthey might provide it, but humans don’t absorb it as efficiently as with meat. Also, agriculture is very hard on the planet and our resources. And kills so many more animals as compared to raising meat for food. The research is all out there, just gotta drop the biases, have an open mind, and be willing to learn. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@LeslieHocker]

@@theswitchnutritionlab you’re correct!

This guy uses the first person pronoun “I” repeatedly. 😂

Here 🧠

[@Sufi2017]

That shows he is confident & competent!

[@abdelilahbenahmed4350]

This "guy" gave us a lot of unique and life saving infos in a generous, passionate and assertive manner.He says "I" because he is the person who gave us the infos, not you.🙂

[@gigics6695]

Focus on what is being offered here… even if you would prefer the delivery to be different. We all have our preferences as well as aspects that ruffle our feathers (and I , for one, am working hard on not allowing my feathers to get ruffled easily… as it does me nor others around me any good , not to mention how focusing on others perceived flaws wastes a LOT of my time and energy I could put to much better use!). Try it… you might like the results/rewards!

[@shangobunni5]

Do you think he should use the royal "we" instead?
