BJ Gaddour is the former fitness director for the Men’s Health brand, the author of Your Body is Your Barbell, and the creator of the best-selling SpeedShred and MetaShred DVD’s. He was also the first personal trainer to grace the cover of Men’s Health, the world’s largest men’s magazine.

Since leaving Men’s Health in 2017, BJ’s main focus has been providing at home fat loss and muscle gain programming for busy parents and professionals.

I’ve known BJ for 10+ years now, and he’s one of those people that always make me think about fitness in a different way.

In this episode, we start by talking about bodyweight workouts, and why BJ hasn’t used anything over a 25# dumbbell for a few years.

From there, we dive into fitness over 40, and what you need to be doing to move and feel great.

In one of my favorite sections of the show, we talk about extensive plyos, and how BJ is using slant boards to unlock his ankles and knees, but also integrating them into his upper body workouts as well.

Last but not least, we talk about why people over 40 should reserve “playoff mode” for certain times of year, several cheat codes they can incorporate into their training, and BJ’s daily trifecta.

What’s old is new, we know this. The pendulum always shifts back. You can go to these stores now and they’ll sell you vinyl records for $200! – BJ Gaddour
