I'm 77. Just don't tell me I need to walk 10,000 steps a day!
I did not receive the Ultimate Guide to Building Muscle & Strength Over Age 50” video bonus for FREE
Slow and steady wins the race.
I discovered your videos a few weeks ago. And have dedicated my gluteal tendonopathy and disc bulge recovery on your exercises. Some days, I am relatively pain free in my back but my hip continues to hurt when I'm walking, but calms down when I rest. I suspect I'm going to hard, though, as some days everything hurts a lot and I dont feel as though I'm getting better. I'm going to focus on no 2 and 3 for a week and note my changes. Love you channel. 62F. Thank you
Great advice. At 63 doing 90minutes HIIT workout sessions 3x per week, run 12 – 15km Wednesdays and 21km Saturdays _ rests Tuesdays/Fridays, no pain, no fatigue, just pure exhilaration life energy 🇿🇦🤺
This is exactly what I need. Thank you for a well thought out explanation of the signs of over exercising and for a sensible plan to recover from it. It's so hard for me to take rest days or time off but I really need to.
Thank you so much. You’re videos are so helpful. X
Great video!
You are a great man! Thank you for the video!
I was facing fatigue problems a while back and decided to do a similar routine as you mentioned. It made a world of difference to take a break, rethink my exercise routine, and not be so hard on myself. I ended up calling my workouts, Smart Workouts. Thanks for this video because I know I was doing the right things. I've been working out at the gym for 26 years and I'm 70. I feel great.
Hi Will,
I’ve been following your advice since your first book came out which I purchased and read. Your advice has helped me recover from a stroke 7 years ago. I’m getting stronger every day and look forward to many active years ahead. Yes, I’m guilty of over exercising because I’m no longer young and it takes longer to recover. Thank you from the bottom of my 70yo female heart ❤
I like your content but can't stand to listen to 15 minutes of talking for 3 or 4 sentences of information. Too much fluff.
Hi Will
I'm now seven months in tkr. I'm still doing physio therapy, but since doing standing on one leg (surgery knee) exercise, I find my ankle start hurting. Is this a strain from the exercise and should I continue with the exercise
Thanks for this post. This had a lot of detail that was new to me and I shared with someone who is currently experiencing some of the symptoms you described. The quality of your videos is excellent, you don’t speak too quickly, the information is concise and there are graphics that emphasize the key points. Well done!
Thank you for this very helpful video. At the moment I am in recovery from doing to much to soon. I am 68.
God bless you richly.
Greetings from Toronto Canada.
Wonderful.i really loved it.
I think if "it" was not called working out, but instead called what as you said we are actually doing: breaking down , then we would "get it" that the recovery is the real gain time and we would not short cut recovery. When we heal the intentional micro tears, that is actually when the muscle grows and the strength is gained. But by calling it working out, we just think more of that is more gain. Just the opposite! More recovery is the gain from breaking down during the gym.
Fatigue is a sign of tiredness?
Similar to how being 90 is a sign of being old?

Maybe everybody here should be assessing their dietary deficiency of collagen BEFORE starting exercise
