Going for a Ruckmarch this morning; taking sometime to reflect on the tragic terrorist actions during 9/11, closing out 20 years of military service and counterterrorism operations in response to those events, and everything else along the way. Marcus, I’m really enjoying this channel and applying it to my “aging” fitness “needs”. Holistic fitness kept me in the game of life and it’s a big part of me staying resilient, keeping up with a super-wife and 5 kids. Enjoy the day everyone and love your neighbors.
Thank you John for your service. You’re what makes this country great!
@@K.Stroh_ we all (neighbors) make this place worth fighting for. Stay awesome!
Absolutely incredible advice as always, Marcus! Thank you for all you do, it's greatly appreciated 🙌
45 year old training to be the old man that can still do pull ups. Love videos like this
love to hear it!
same here...
Wow! This hits home on so many levels. Thank you for this Marcus, love what you do and appreciate the help!
My pleasure! Thanks for following along!
You're the best, Marcus! I'm 27 and always enjoy your videos that discuss what it's like to be older and how I can continue to feel like I'm in my 20's for years to come
Love that!
Great information as always. I am 41 years old and I lift 4-5X a week. Having osteogenesis imperfecta, I have to do the weight lifting thing to keep my bones strong and plus I enjoy doing it.
This video was just what I needed! I resonate with everyone of your points! 53years old, a dietitian and am seeing my body shift in ways I dislike! Time to take what I know, shift my energy to discipline with intention! I have been using the excuse of “menopause “ and falling for it! Thank you for making it real and hitting all the points here!
You are so welcome! Good luck, you got this!
Than you for mentioning the scale. I used to think the scale was the enemy and there were other ways to measure success. Obviously there are. but the scale is an immediate reminder to keep yourself focused and on track. Once I started seeing it as a tool and not a club I started seeing results quicker.
So good mate. Loving the content! Thanks!
Much appreciated!
Great vid Marcus loving the content
Appreciate it!
i'm 68 and still training. i wanted to comment on your short about adding strength training vs. the getting run over by a truck syndrome. i was a powerlifter 45 years ago, quit that, but never stopped working out. i started calisthenics training 2 years ago and after about a year of training had to back off due to inflammed shoulders, wrists, and elbows. i spent about 3 months rehabbing with easier exercises (wall pushups from convict conditioning and bodyweight squats). i've stopped trying to keep up with people 1/2 my age that have youtube channels, but do incorporate their exercises at a volume that doesn't hurt me. i'm mostly doing basic bodyweight exercises along with beginner level kettlebell and it seems to be working. my strength goals are more in the realm of calisthenics...i'm working on getting a free standing handstand and l sit. i can do a pistol squat, but rarely do them because my knees don't seem to like them. btw, you have a good channel.
Hi Marcus, thanks for your content! I feel I’m in a good situation with calories per day, but really struggle with high sodium intake. I’m always craving salt. Do you ever run into this?
Great information
Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it.
Solid Advice 💪🏻
Great Video!
Thanks!
This is gold! A big shift for me at 43 is eating enough, especially my protein, lift 4 days not 6 and drop my alcohol consumption especially out of Covid. And lastly getting MINIMUM 7 hours. Anything less ruins your metabolism.
And for those over 40, 50, 60, you've said it before, joint pain/aches are a call for better and more conscious movement. Proper technique and awareness > weight lifted. Shelf the ego and revel is a happier body. As always, thanks for sharing Marcus.
Yes, exactly! Leave the ego at the door. Thanks for following along!
Great motivational video thank you for this I'm 40 and I need to change really struggle with food cravings arghh I run nearly everyday 20-40 miles a week and now have started strength training feeling better but need to start plan my food better 🥺
You can do it!
Great info.
Also, addressing mitochondrial health is a big one - at any age really…
Thanks for following along!
during football season (I coach) I am essentially working 2 full time jobs.., in addition to family life.
I try to keep the activity level up.., but some days, after working a full day, practice, and then studying tape (to help up properly scout opponents in addition to self scout to correct techniques) I literal fall asleep as soon as I get home.
With all this I tend to lose muscle and weight and the eating, if I have time is usually not too bad.., I just don’t get enough calories, let alone protein.
You definitely have my attention, however I have eaten in a deficit mini mini times for 2 to 3 months and I can still not lose weight! I do rotate days and night shift so I know That plays a big part! I’m trying to get motivated yet again to try IF. I feel like it’s hopeless, what do you use for tdee So I know what I need to be eating every day?
Thx Marcus! This inspires me. I am 42 father of two with a wife, a cat, a dog and a job. Getting more fat by each day and need to have a change...
you go this! one day at a time. Start simple and remember to be kind to yourself.
Hey Marcus,
Been thinking about this video the past couple of days. I was wondering if you can get a bit more in depth on recovery. I'm 43 and don't bounce back a quarter as fast as I used to. I do my best to get 6-8 hours of sleep. I've got my diet locked down and protein focused and feel like I'm in a good stride rotating between Chest and Arms, Legs and Back, Cardio, and an Off day here and there. I've tried using a Foam Roller and didn't much care for it. I recently picked up a percussion message gun which has really helped my Quads recover faster. I know you have a sauna and ice bath (I don't). I feel like if I could do more to focus on recovering better/faster I could continue to push harder on my heavy days and can't find many recovery focused videos. More just everyone talking about how important it is, especially when older, but not necessarily guiding that recovery. Just a thought. Thanks for the videos as always.
Perhaps a great idea for a future video
Thank you, for this content. When say left hard, can a women in her late fifties lift heavy?
What are your thoughts on natural adaptogen boosters to increase HgH?
I like your videos
We appreciate that!
Before I started weightlifting, I was on a lower calorie regimen without really paying attention to my macros though. I started working with a trainer that worked out a macros plan for me with higher calories when I was on the lower calorie meal plan I was not losing and not gaining, and after switching to a higher calorie higher protein meal plan that the trainer created and lifting weights five times a week and doing cardio three times a week. I’m still not losing and my way to stable and the measurements are the same . To me it seems that the calories that I’m on now are good for maintaining and I decided to lower the amount of fat and carbs and as a result a lower calorie number per day but my trainer is saying that I cannot do that, even though I don’t have any results, she says that I will lose muscle and to stick with the program even though it’s been eight months and nothing changed. What are your thoughts?
Hey Yulia, thanks for the question. If your goal is to lose fat, it will be best to pay less attention to the scale and eat the proper amount of protein. Hope this helps.
@@marcusfilly thank you, I weight 156 lbs and I eat 130 gr of protein a day, up till a month ago I was eating 155 gr of protein a day, not only the scale does not change but my measurements haven’t changed in 8 months.
I watched your videos and you say that people overestimate their activity level and how much they eat and that it’s possible to make a change after 40-50 years old . So is it a correct course of action to reduce calories and increase cardio at this point for me?
It is a myth! I lost 80 pounds at 38 and at 45 I'm in the best shape of my life. Man, I'm having so much fun.
awesome! nice work! Keep up the hard work and enjoy life!
For your Pump 40 do you have a day or two of sample training ? I’m interested
Here is one of our recent emails that have several to take a look at. Enjoy! mailchi.mp/functional-bodybuilding/pump40-functional-muscle-progression
Thank you ! You had me at 40 minutes 😀 I will check it out.
Guys, I hate to say it, but alcohol kills testosterone production. Something that helped me a lot, cut out sweets and, eat all the meat and eggs you want. Yum !!!
