Yesterday a guy at the gym asked me what I do for my shoulders. I thought about it for a second and told him: “Overhead presses and lateral raises.”
As I walked away, it hit me: I’m not doing anything special. There’s no secret exercise. Just the basics, done with effort, over and over again.
That’s what really builds muscle after 40 (or at any age). Sure, some exercises might give you a slightly better stretch, or a slightly better contraction...but at the end of the day, it’s about picking a few solid movements (that you enjoy doing) and showing up consistently.
That’s also the philosophy behind Full Body 40, my latest free training program for men over 40.
Whether you train 2 days a week or 5, it gives you a clear plan built on the basics that actually work.
After 17 years, we finally crossed 1,000,000 subscribers.
There’s a story behind this journey...one that I hope to share with you all someday if you’d like to hear it.
For now, I just want to say thank you. Your support over the years has meant more than I can put into words.
As a small token of my appreciation, I’ve put together something brand new for you: Full Body 40.
Inside, you’ll find complete programs ranging from as little as 2 days per week to as many as 5, designed to fit any schedule. And it’s completely free.
After almost 17 years of showing up and building brick by brick, this channel just hit 1,000,000 subscribers. When I first picked up a camera in that tiny apartment all those years ago, I never imagined we’d get here.
I can’t put into words how grateful I am. Every single view, like, comment, and share has fueled this journey. You guys stuck with me through the highs and lows, and you’re the reason I never gave up.
This milestone isn’t just mine...it’s ours.
From the bottom of my heart: thank you. Thank you for trusting me, for letting me be a part of your fitness journey, and for building this community with me.
And we’re just getting started. I’ve got something special planned to celebrate this milestone, so stay tuned. On top of that, I’ve also been working on something pretty awesome for you guys behind the scenes. It’s completely free, and it’ll be ready very soon.
This is just the beginning. Let’s keep pushing forward together.

Your most valuable asset is muscle.
Tons of new research is coming out to prove it.
Men with more muscle live longer and healthier lives, keep their independence, feel more confident…
But without it, you just fade into oblivion…
Getting weak, frail, and having to rely on others for help.
No man wants to go out that way.
And no man has to.
I’m passionate about helping men over 40 build muscle fast.
Why?
Because there was a time when I thought aging was a death sentence for muscle gains.
But after looking into real research about how to build muscle after 40, I found a training style that works…
And I put in my program Full-Body 40, which you can grab for FREE below.
Whether you can only train 2x per week or you prefer to train every day, there's something in there for you.

Getting older isn’t a countdown… it’s a wake-up call.
A reminder that our choices right now are shaping the days, years, and memories we still get to create.
I don’t train just to look good.
I train so I can chase this little guy around the park.
So I can pick him up without my back screaming.
So I can be active in his world instead of watching from the sidelines.
Strong isn’t a body type.
Strong is being present for the moments that matter most.
No matter your age… keep going.
Your future self — and your family — will thank you for it.
