Can you build muscle and lose fat in your late 60s or 70s—even after years of consistent training?

In this episode of the Discover Strength Podcast, CEO and exercise physiologist Luke Carlson walks listeners through the real-life body composition journey of his own mother, who began strength training in her 50s and continued into her mid-70s. Using 8 years of Bod Pod data, Luke unpacks how she gained over 6 pounds of lean muscle and lost 12 pounds of fat.

This example provides a a powerful, evidence-based case for what consistent resistance training, adequate protein intake, and creatine supplementation can do for your fitness journey. You’ll learn: Why building muscle later in life is possible despite being more difficult, how Bod Pod tests reveal deeper insights than a scale ever could, and why a consistent strength training routine can aid in muscle growth at older ages.

This is a data-rich look at how aging doesn't have to mean decline.
