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.
