How I’d Get JACKED AGAIN If I Lost All My Gains

[@SalemArc]

Fitness is like investments. The best time to start was a long time ago. The next best time to start is right now 💪🏾

[@mahdman3]

Absolutely! Spot on.

[@jaymo9085]

[@jjsifo1]

Correct !

[@jjsifo1]

Just what I tell anybody who wants to get fit and join a gym . Start with exercises you like keep it simple ,keep your body hungry is the best analogy I've heard so far. I am 72 years old I do not go to a gym , have a small gym at home and sometimes I wake up at 2am and do what ever exercise I feel like doing.35 years doing that.

[@BOX5500]

I once watched a Tony Robbins segment where he asked the crowd something along the lines of "who thinks health and fitness is important, raise your hand" and most of the hands in the room went up. He then said "OK, now stand up and show me, prove to me that health and fitness really is important to you!" and not many people were willing to stand up and just one guy willing to show off his abs. This really stuck with me. Many people say something is important to them but if it truly is important there will be clear evidence of it. If health and fitness is important to you, generally you will look healthy and fit. If not, it probably isn't really that important to you. After all, most of us have a certain standard concerning the way a fitness coach should look before we sign on. SHOW people that fitness is important to you without saying a word and let their words confirm your success.

[@apelincoln8427]

Staying consistent is the hardest part. Eat cleaner/less. Weight training Mon, Wed, Fri split to hit every muscle group. HIIT Tues, Thurs with weighted jump rope mixed w/ body weight excercises. On the weekend simply live life and look to mix in active things like walking outside, hike, yardwork, kayak, get yourself outdoors if the weather permits.

[@fdellarosa]

This is a really interesting topic. I’m 68 and have trained for the better part of my life. Long Covid interrupted that and I’m trying to get back to where I was prior. Thank you for this.

[@PaulSklarxfit]

Glad to help

[@peternowlan5196]

I’m 67 and at the crossroads. Joined the gym today. Weights then a 30 min inclined walk on Treadmill. My nutrition plan is fixed. Now like in my profession, to be successful, it’s all about consistency. Thank you sir.

[@iMiik]

i've learned it doesn't happen overnight since i've started your channel. However, it's these types of videos that continue to push me. 💪🏼

[@aliaub75]

One of the best videos I've seen! Thank you sir.

[@PaulSklarxfit]

Appreciate it. Glad you enjoyed it

[@bwdulken]

Great post Paul. I got sick back in early September and haven’t had the same motivation to work out since. Thank you for the inspiration.

[@alitabattlechicken9732]

Great stuff, Paul. I’m 51 and pretty lean. Slightly muscular. I row every day for about 30-45 min and I’m trying to work in some weight lifting I’ve seen in your videos. I don’t want to be as big as you because of the sport I play, but I’d love to gain 5-9 lbs of muscle. You’re inspiring and thanks for all you do 💪

[@GONE2VT802]

Outstanding video, Paul... I needed to hear this. I'm hoping to join your fitness program very soon.

[@bobmartens1089]

Im 68 and was realy fit till 66 now not so great. Ive decided to get back at it. Thank goodness i eat clean and whole foods and only a few pounds of extra fat. No time to waste at my age.

[@jaymo9085]

You got this!

[@FrancisLCorro]

Your wisdom speaks of truth and practicality. Salute to you, Sir!

[@andrejutel9110]

Couldn't agree more Paul. Its absolutely never too late to start!

[@guspachio4977]

Paul…you publish outstanding content. I just want to say ‘thank you’, it’s very much appreciated!

[@Smileyman00]

I am 62 . Cycling for years, fitness. Stopped 5 years ago due to injury. This year Got back on the fitness and weight training train. Looking better now then I was 25😀. Now I look at it more as a journey .

[@petertaylor989]

This is an outstanding video. Motivating and inspiring.

[@josebaztan77]

Resistance training full body workout, 25k steps per day, calorie deficit, caffeine overdose, ephedrine equivalent, being doing it for 1 month now, 6kgs off. So far doing fine, protein 2x per pound of bodyweight.

[@OzYogz]

I''m 52 now and this video is just what I wanted. I am average or below average 167 cms and 77kg now. I have been 97 kg at age 40 and worked my way up - err down to 68 by running alone in 2 years. Then I started martial arts and earned Taekwondo black belt in 4 years where I reduced steady state running, gained explosiveness but also added a bit of weight to mid 70 kg. Over the last 5 years I have been around 75 to 82 back and forth. I have built a bit more muscle in the last 2 years which is what I like but I want to get back to being low 70s and yet increase muscle mass and look jacked up like @Paul. He is just what I want to look like. I like everything I have seen on Paul's channel. Hope I take something on from this video and follow on Paul's footsteps/

Great video Paul, thank you for the inspiration and motivation!

[@Ghost_of_a_Flea]

Trained intensely and competed a few times for over 15 years, ran gear at the time...quit altogether for about 7 years. Had to have bicep tendon/rotator cuff surgery (they just tore bc of past repetitive use) and was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis at 45 which laid me up quite a bit, especially bc of the meds i had to take and the resultant joint deformities. Went back to it clean and while Ill never be my earlier on/off season weight (237/217)... i lost 90 lbs of fat in 5 months and then in the subsequent 2 years put on 23 lbs of lean muscle at around 10-11% bodyfat at 50 years old. My weight went from 260 to 167 after fat loss phase then after the 2 years of lifting up to 190. I will say do not just cut fat without weight training..that was a mistake i got too skinny and looked sickly at 167. I had some lose skin from it too but it repaired from collagen and daily skin treatment. I will say at my age i do not ever feel excited and energized to workout beforehand. I have to FORCE myself to do so everyday, and my evenings are spent in pain. Joint pain, numbness in arms and legs, fatigue. I gotta lift smart so I dont seriously injure myself, bc one wrong move and Im done as i have spinal stenosis. I have to wear knee brace, elbow brace, back brace, shoulder brace, and a neck brace for each workout. That being said, when they told me 'no more bodybuilding' that was the catalyst for all of it. Let this be a lesson for you as to if you can do it at 50. Just...begin. And keep going. Every time I felt defeated or depressed or fearful I instilled a little voice in my head that simply says 'keep going,' and it quiets the doubts.

[@rodspov1915]

Fitness is like investing in real estate, the time to start is always in the past. DO IT and hold it for life!

[@markjones2973]

Great topic. You left out body weight exercises - calisthenics. I do resistance and body weight - I found body weight exercises to be harder than weight lifting. Have you ever seen a gymnast? They are jacked. Try pull ups, push ups, ring dips and all the variations then move up to levers, planches, hand stands -these are way harder than resistance training. Another thing about cycling; it can be dangerous since most of us ride on roads with cars and its easy to get hit by a vehicle or crash - often resulting in serious injury. Swimming is much safer and much less chance of injury. Thank you

[@TedTurner-y6j]

You really can't go wrong with bodyweight exercises👊👍💪💪.

[@davidfife-nm7uy]

There’s always someone who knows it all and that’s you. Where’s your Chanel mate?

[@Markhypnosis1]

This video is for people just starting out. Calisthenics isn't great for beginners as it takes a lot of skill. You said it yourself, calisthenics is way harder than resistance training. Most beginners can't even do one push up or pull up, so that's totally impractical. Whereas with resistance training you just need to start with very light weights and slowly progress. Simple. You do realise that you can cycle indoors, don't you? Most gyms have indoor bikes. This video is about making it as easy as possible to start as a beginner, and he's already said why swimming might not be optimal due to the time it takes to get ready.

[@paulgeorge7994]

[@rbabich]

[@nouseforaname6846]

At 48, I have the same metabolism I did as a teenager. I enjoy eating a healthy diet (no sweets/sugar) and still working the same physical job I always have. My workout is almost identical to the split you had shown. It just seems that no matter how many calories I try to stuff in my face to bulk up , I can barely gain anything.

[@charlesbritt842]

Swimming plus calisthenics is the best way. Swimming will really change your body more than most activities. It hits places that are difficult to hit with weights.

[@christopherlydon-sr1gu]

I was 38 completely natural, 5 foot 10, 215-220. Always under 14% body fat, I bounced around that. Broke my leg, lost 30 pounds of muscle. I'm 43 trying to get it back. It's not easy. If your overweight and out of shape, fasted walking is best. Steady slow cardio burns fat. Fat ppl don't need to burn calories, they need to burn fat. Light strength training and nutrition is huge. Strength training ramps up thermogenesis and nutrition can put yiu in a deficit.

[@BackwardTravisty]

This is your one and only life. Act like it's precious, worthy of being well maintained. The aggressive pursuit of comfort and leisure is what's prematurely aging and killing people. Maintain a comfortable level of athleticism throughout your life so you can grow old and still be strong and agile, not weak and fragile. Agile. Not fragile. For as long as possible. Grow old as young as possible.

[@charlesbritt842]

The problem w a split routine is if you miss a day. Full body done 3 times a week w a metabolic component is the way.

[@343gabe]

Love this. In my experience it's good to have a reset maybe once a year or so.

[@mattpott774]

Rowing is also a great exercise, if you put some resistance. Love your videos, thanks!

[@fmxman1564]

I’m so happy with my body when it doesn’t want to over eat.. that feeling to stop is a fine line but must be respected. If you push it. Ext time you eat more and more and more

[@Jeff_Moto_Adventures_Canada]

I will be 60 next month. I never stopped. Always do something. Walk, run, weights, pushups. So many things you can do everyday. Paul has several easy exercises that don't even require equipment- these were key for me!

[@edwardwilliams1772]

Lov your content and videos Paul 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾

[@bryonross4026]

What about when you are trying to gain lean muscle mass? I cut down to my freshman weight but now want to "bulk" up some. I tried adding 250 cal a day and pushing my protein intake to my goal weight. I've picked up 10 pounds but 2% body fat as well.

[@stuc3195]

I find walking has been a huge win when it comes to burning body fat. If its on a treadmill then 35-40 mins at a speed and incline where im puffing. If on the street i just get a good pace going. The aim is to sweat. That and closely measuring and monitoring my food

[@magpiemale]

I remember bodybuilders in the 80's and 90's saying aerobic exercise should sit alongside weight lifting.I do 30 mins of cross training for stamina 2.5 kilometres

[@mrlion2022]

I'm 40 now, and i do a full body workout, and I mix and match.

[@incrediblez394]

The challenge for me is working out from home and trying to come up with new exercises to stay motivated. I have to find me a good daily calorie calculator also to get lean.

[@Ryyyzzor]

Got back into the gym in February and strength is through the roof but I’m not really bothered about that.. more bothered about the aesthetic look and I’m struggling to lose the last of my belly fat. A serious ankle injury last year (ATFL) limits what I can do so can’t run, barely walk on an incline at times. No idea what the best way to fit in cardio is

[@Póg-mo-thóin-repeat]

Here's a question. In 2020, I was 47 yrs old at 320 Ibs. Lost 170 Ibs by 2023. I achieved this cause I'm able to workout 3/4 hours a day, four+ days out of the week (I am retired). However, after doing this schedule for almost four years. I took a break, after achieving many goals, then one day. Almost out of nowhere, I get hit with a massive arthritis pain in both hands, fingers and wrist along with arthritis in my ankles. So bad, that I can't even close my fist. Can't hold dumbells or any other workout equipment without my fingers feeling like they're broken. So, now at 51, how can I get "jacked again" while suffering from arthritis. Any tips on foods or workouts. Thanks.

[@jeffdeneen7241]

Read understand and apply the carnivore diet. Doctor Anthony Chaffee is a great start.

[@tonyquinlan7341]

I second the Carnavour diet only diet to help with arthritis.

[@dr.kurtjohnson1791]

I have always found a mix of heavy bag and light weights high reps keeps me lean and jacked. Also I fast for 24 hours 2 days per week and other days fast for 15-18 hours

[@matwinner9708]

Rucking with hills is safe and effective for endurance, and quite a realistic transfer to real life and human evolution

[@PaulSklarxfit]

That is definitely a decent way to go

I know you don't follow diets, but I'm curious what your thoughts are on Protein Sparing Modified Fasts in the situation of someone who has a SIGNIFICANT amount of weight to lose.

[@lifes2day]

I teach; 1. Walk 10k steps daily 2. Weight train 3-4x per week 3. Eat nutrient dense whole food, high protein intake. Tracking calorie needs/goals. 4. Sleep 5. Always consistent. Easy

[@jacktolmachoff7547]

[@Jeff-zw5tj]

What shirt is that? Barbell?

[@Absurd_Fitness]

Got to do it for yourself !!

[@bobbysilver272]

If you are overweight I would suggest cycling. It really helps reduce weight if done right and avoids stressing the joints. Do this and as well as weight training and you will be on your way.

[@SHORT-FRIDAYS]

Get an ab wheel with elbow rest support and do that and planks; Do it for 2 weeks and your fat will melt off; Do sprints as fat cannot live on the body; and do clean presses;

[@wazkayani]

Protein and Creatine - when you are 50+, what is recommended? I hear mixed feedback on both. How much protein should we be eating per day? Thanks

[@PaulSklarxfit]

I always like to stick with the .75-1 g perpound of bodyweight. You may need more if you are exercising more vigorously using that formula. Creatine can be dosed between 2.5 and 5 g per day. Beyond muscle, it has been shown to be helpful for cognition as you get older.

[@danielcabrera6333]

Hi Paul ….. can you give any suggestions for guys like me who want to increase weight?

[@naelbeno6249]

Top top top 👍🏼 thank you ❤

[@susumukumo]

If it were me, I'd prefer sprinting over jogging. Much safer on the joints, increase in HGH, full body fast twitch workout, burn fat for several hours after done, and I can get it done in 15 - 20 minutes. Add in the resistance training and it's a great formula for getting in shape.

[@metalbarron]

Let’s go!

[@bludog4657]

“A box of Twinkies” 😮😂😂😂

[@gmo709]

Sprinting would be better than jogging. Sprints increase muscle mass and improve insulin resistance and toughen up body. Very efficient. Sprinting shocks the body into becoming fitter at the cellular level. It also will help boost metabolism and helps burn visceral fat. I agree that weight training is great, but why not mention sprinting or h.i.t?
