Welcome to The Over 50 Health & Wellness Show, the number one podcast for men and women over 50 who are ready to transform their health, build strong, lean bodies, and live their best lives in the second half of life! I’m your host, Kevin English, founder of The Silver Edge, and today’s episode is personal.
In this special Coach’s Corner edition, I’m diving deep into a condition many of us over 50 face but rarely talk about: skinny fat. You know the look—skinny arms, skinny legs, and a stubborn belly or hips. It’s not just about aesthetics; this condition is a silent killer linked to chronic diseases, inflammation, and even premature death.
But here’s the good news: You don’t have to stay stuck in the skinny fat trap.
In this episode, I share:
✅ My personal journey from skinny fat in my 40s to the healthiest, strongest version of myself in my 50s and 60s.
✅ The dangers of skinny fat—why it’s worse than obesity for your health.
✅ The ultimate 3-step solution to overcome skinny fat: Eat Right, Move Right, and Recover Right.
✅ Practical, science-backed tips to build muscle, improve body composition, and feel incredible.
✅ Why cardio isn’t the answer—and what you should focus on instead.
If you’ve struggled with feeling soft, weak, or stuck in the “dad bod” or “grandma bod” phase, this episode is your roadmap to reclaiming your vitality, strength, and health.
