As we age, we have less margin in our health. We can’t continue with the same bad habits or take the same junk-filled supplements and expect to make gains in our fitness.
I started The 40+ Athlete podcast because I’ve seen what is possible when we give our bodies the proper fuel and stimuli to adapt and thrive.
Through interviews and solo episodes, I will be sharing nutrition and fitness recommendations to redefine what is possible at 40 and beyond!
For example, my Dad, also known as the CPA, is a a testament to the fact that you're never too old to change your health and your life.
He has gone to the CrossFit Games 5x, placing 2nd in the Masters division. He's always been physically active, doing programs like P90X but once he started doing CrossFit at the age of 59, he experienced massive changes in his body composition. His lean muscle tissue increased and his body fat percentage decreased.
If a CPA who owns his own business and sits in front of a computer all day can become a CrossFit champion in his 60's, you can make serious gains in your fitness too.
Let’s redefine what is possible so that at 60, 70, 80, we can say “yep, still got it”.

The Metabolic Benefits of Creatine
Creatine is most often associated with strength and muscle mass, but what's often overlooked is its metabolic benefits.
One of the hallmarks of healthy aging is efficiently getting sugar out of the blood and into the muscle cells for use or storage. This is also one of the processes that gets downgraded in the aging process. However, creatine can help! It can improve insulin sensitivity and move glucose into the muscle cells for use.
Creatine supports muscle cell membrane stability (promoting better communication between cells and decreasing cellular breakdown), makes it easier to create ATP, promoting improved recovery and muscle endurance, which leads to improved muscle mass and strength and it helps clear glucose from the blood and gets it into our muscles.

Fitness Tips and Inspo with CrossFit Master's Champion Cheryl Brost
Today, I'm chatting with Cheryl Brost, a CrossFit Master's athlete who won the 50-54 division in 2023.
She's qualified for the CrossFit Games 12x and competed in the Games 10x. She's experienced injuries and setbacks but has persevered and is fitter than ever at 52. In fact, she just recently had a PR in the workout, Grace.
As she shares, anything is possible with consistency.
She started CrossFit at age 39 and fell in love with the community, camaraderie, and the competition aspect of CrossFit.
After this interview, you'll be inspired to move your body, even if it's just to get your blood pumping through a long walk or maybe you'll want to take up hula dancing like Cheryl's 80yr old Mom!

How this 67 yr old's fitness transformation is inspiring others to make fitness a habit
In today's episode, we're talking to Tom Mulbeier. A 5x CrossFit Games Master's athlete who transformed his life through fitness. As he says, no matter what type of exercise you enjoy, "consistency is the key". In this interview, he shares his body stats from what they were 10 years ago to what they are today.
He's a good example of how to age in reverse. Although you may see Tom at the CrossFit Games this year, his goal and true passion is to inspire others to make fitness a habit. Another Tom quote: "What you make a habit, you make happen".

Today, I'm talking to Jim Carkner, a former Green Beret, husband, Dad, and financial advisor who found CrossFit when his pants let him know that he wasn't the fit beret that he used to be. He recently took 2nd at Wodapalooza in the Master's 50-54 division and is hoping to compete in the Master's division at the CrossFit Games.
