Episode 166 – The 10 Commandments of Exercises for Men Over 40, 50, 60, and Beyond


Listen Later

You could be spending hours in the gym every week, following whatever trendy routine is making the rounds, but if these foundational movements aren't in your arsenal, you're wasting your time and setting yourself up for injury.

Today, on my 56th birthday, I'm giving you the gift of the 10 non-negotiable exercises every man over 40 MUST incorporate for true functional strength, mobility, and the physique you want.

These aren't just random movements—they're the cornerstone exercises that build a bulletproof body as you age. The ones that fight sarcopenia, help you maintain independence and keep you moving pain-free well into your 70s and beyond.
