Today’s podcast episode is all about how to get in killer shape in your 50s, 60s, and yeah even your 70s. As someone nearly 60 myself trying to stay fit and healthy, I’ve picked up a thing or two on this whole healthy aging game.
And let me tell you, a lot of folks think it’s all downhill after 50 when it comes to your strength and health. But from my experience? Complete BS. With the right changes to how you eat, exercise, manage stress – you can absolutely be in the best shape of your life even as you get older.
In today’s show I break it down into what I call the three pillars of strong healthy aging – movement, nutrition, and recovery. I get into real practical steps – how walking needs to be your jam, why you gotta start smashing way more protein, why tracking your food is a game-changer. Oh and real talk – chronic cardio is not your friend! I speak from experience here.
Some of the stuff that I really geeked out on is why strength training is so crucial to stay powered up as you age. And I get into the science about how our muscle fibers change as we get older. Pretty fascinating if you’re a fitness nerd like me! I also talk about how you gotta stop making changes from a place of feeling bad about your body – master your mindset first y’all!
I live this stuff but even I struggled HARD with lame fitness habits and stupid fad diets myself back in the day. I made this podcast to keep it real with people looking to make changes. Whether you need an overhaul or just wanna take your health up a notch, have a listen!
