Staying Healthy, Lean, Muscular and Strong After 40 w/ Dr. John Berardi & Jay Ferruggia

www.VigorGroundFitness.com
While I was in Scottsdale speaking at the Coaching Con 2022 event I was able to catch up with my close friends Jay Ferruggia and Dr. John Berardi and get in some training session, hiking, and great food, and I was also able to grab them for a quick 20 minutes to talk about staying healthy, lean, muscular and strong into your 40's and beyond.
Tune in as we share tips and principles of what we do as well as how we coach our clients.

Higher reps and lower weight have been the key to keeping out of the injury zone for me. That way I can continue to train consistently. What I do do though is change up the routine occasionally so my body does not adapt. People my age are now either six feet under or have a laundry list of health problems. I don't want to be a statistic so I continue to train on an almost daily basis. What I tell everyone is that we each get 24 hours. Invest one hour of that 24 to enjoy the other 23 hours

I’m 36 & getting back into the gym and this was interesting to listen to. In my 20s it was all how much you bench, squat, deadlift etc I don’t really give a shit about that anymore. I just want to be strong, stable, balanced, athletic & mobile. Which really changes the way I approach working out. Nutrition & sleep are very crucial also as you all were saying. Please keep exploring this topic for 40yr + workouts

I'm 60 now. Returned to lifting 2 years ago after a 25 year break. Doing the same weights as when I was in my 20s and 30s but do it over 4 days (with 2 push/ squats days and 2 2 pull/ deadlift days) instead of 3 days (in which I did everything each day). I agree with the arguments against doing light weights and high reps. I cycle between doing 5-7 reps and 10-12. I think doing the volume across 4 days instead of 3 allows me to maximise stimulus for particular muscle groups without getting systemic fatigue.

No better group to tackle this topic!

This is amazing advice. 43 and can relate to this discussion. I want to be able to perform pain free and look good over how strong I am or how big I can look. It’s so easy to get distracted on different goals. Maintaining strength, performing well without injury and looking good is achievable, but you have to change your mindset at this age. I can outperform most teenagers at my kids school.😁

Amazing! Thanks for watching

I’m 47 years old and have been training since junior high school. I’m in excellent physical shape and health. My current routine is high-rep calisthenics and 2 days set aside for compound weight training movements. I had high-hopes for this video until the gentleman on the left started anti bench, squat, deadlift talk……

JB's biceps 💪😲

That lost high school guy with "pimp dog" and "cool" style (tattoos and baseball cap) spilling a lot of nonsense,but in general something that you can hear all over the yankee region or videos - getting old and old,loosing muscle,cant do this or that ,sore ,and above all "to get away with it" (to quote him) is a certain mark of him personally,in the manner of expression. You dont want to "get away" with something,either you have quality or not,looking good or not ...and he doesn't have neither of that.
