How to Train as an Aging Adult
In this (unlucky) episode I read and answer a subscriber’s question on how to train as we get older.
It is very important to maintain your strength as you age to keep your body and mind healthy.
If I were to construct a program for a healthy lifestyle I would make sure my mindset is one of a long-term health and fitness journey which makes the details slightly less relevant as simply doing the work 5-6 days a week.
I explain why bodybuilding programming, not the exercises, might to be the best for the aging athlete and how to structure a weekly routine including daily mobility either during the morning, before your workout and/or before bed.)
Finally I will construct a program based on the activities listed and how to get it all in an be successful for the long term.
