Getting Stronger with Age: PRs, Purpose & Training for the Long Haul with Eric Dahl


Listen Later

Eric Dahl joins Niki Sims and Andrew Jackson on Beast Over Burden to share how he continues getting stronger with age, setting major PRs in his mid-40s while balancing work, family, coaching, and recovery.

Eric has been part of the Barbell Logic family since 2017 and has built an impressive strength resume, including a 507-pound bench press and a 628-pound deadlift at 46 years old. But this conversation is about more than big lifts. Eric shares how strength training became his version of a midlife crisis, why hard training provides purpose, and how he has learned to adjust recovery, competition, and programming as life has changed.

He also discusses his long-term coaching relationship with Caleb, his experience becoming a coach himself, and the powerful story of helping his mother-in-law begin strength training after an osteoporosis diagnosis.

This episode is a reminder that strength is for everyone. Whether you are chasing PRs, training for independence, or simply looking for a meaningful outlet for hard work, getting stronger with age is possible.
