Guys, they say that FORTY is the new THIRTY, and I can’t agree more. When you get to the age of 40 and beyond and include health and fitness as part of you lifestyle FORTY can be the new TWENTY.
The older you get the more important fitness needs to be part of our life. Exercise science has proven that you can become fit and healthy at any age.
Dr. Richard A. DiCenso (www.matrixtransformation.com) states, muscle loss and decreased cardiovascular fitness are not the normal result of aging; they're primarily the result of a sedentary lifestyle.
Once the average inactive person reaches age 65, they will have lost up to 40% of their muscle mass and aerobic capacity compared to when they were young adults. You can prevent this physical decline by remaining active as you age.
Numerous studies have shown that older people respond very favourably to both strength training and aerobic exercise. Most fitness experts agree that a 15-20 year decrease in biological age can be achieved with simple lifestyle changes. There can be a huge difference between biological age and chronological age.
If you start exercising, eating right and getting the right nutrients and taking care of yourself now, chances are you will live a long and fruitful life.
You can start achieving good health by being smart with you workouts. When I was younger, I spent way to long in the gym, with very little results. Now, shorter more intense workouts have helped to get me the best body of my life. I cleaned up my diet as well. I started to eat good, clean foods and got rid of all the crappy processed junk. The result is the best body of my life.
FUNK AT 40
Don’t take my word for it, I ran into a good friend of mine that is 45. We have known each other for about 20 years. Jeff looks incredible. He has a body of a 20 year old. His secret, exercising smart, eating clean and he continues to increase his health and fitness knowledge with Funk Roberts Fitness and other sites.
In talking, we both agreed that time is of the essence and as you get to our age, with work, family, etc we have to make the best of our time when we exercise.
JEFF DYER FIT AT 45
You don’t have to go to a gym and lift heavy weights to get a great body. You can use bodyweight exercises, a few dumbbells, kettlebells, resistance bands, skipping rope, and a swiss/stability ball. That’s a relatively cheap gym to get the best body of your life.
I have learned to get the best out of my workouts. One of the easiest, fastest and most effective ways to achieve time efficiency in your workouts is circuit training.
The key is increasing the intensity of your workouts and cardio training, eating a clean diet and getting the right supplements.
