"Yeah Jon, it sounds great, but my hormones are a mess."
My hormones were so messed up at one point, it looked like there was no hope for me. I overcame it with diet and by working with my doctor. You can, too.
"Well, I'm too embarrassed to go into a gym."
So was I at first. Did you look at my before picture? Start exercising at home, get outside and walk, but do SOMETHING... Now!
"But I couldn't possibly gain muscle at my age."
Actually, the research is 100% conclusive about this... you can gain strength and muscle at any age. Landmark studies by William Evans at Tufts University showed that men and women in their 80's and 90's are as responsive to strength training as anyone.
"Yeah, but I can't change my diet because my family eats a certain way and we'd all have to change."
You go first then. By setting the example and being a "leader", you'll become the positive influence in your family and you may be surprised how family and friends will follow.
"I work out enough just doing yard work."
Good for you. Even mild exercise like gardening or raking leaves has health benefits. But how's your muscle to fat ratio? How's your strength? Do you like the way you look naked? Truth is, you NEED a comprehensive program ' strength training, cardio, nutrition, and proper mental attitude or you're settling for so much less than you can be
"Those people have superior genes."
You're right'some of the people in Fit OVER 40 do have above average genetics. But many of them have horrible genetics and overcame that. Besides, the research shows that genetics are only 30% of the equation. That 30% is an advantage for sure, but any gerontologist will tell you that 70% of the aging effects most people experience are NOT "normal" and can be prevented through lifestyle factors under your control.
"But I don't want to look like Arnold."
Don't worry. It's extremely difficult to gain muscle bulk unless you're shooting up steroids or you're some kind of genetic freak. FIT OVER 40 training principles will make you toned and lean, they won't turn you into Mr. or Ms Universe.
"I'm post menopausal."
So are almost ALL the women inside the FIT OVER 40 e-book. If they did it during or after menopause, what's stopping you?
"I have osteoporosis."
Well in that case, you can't afford NOT to improve your diet and begin some weight bearing exercise IMMEDIATELY to improve your bone density or your osteoporosis will only get worse! (check with your doctor first, then get moving!)
"I tried before and failed."
Really? So you try things once and then you give up? When you were a baby and you fell over the first time you tried to walk, do you wish your parents had given up and said "Oh well, he tried to walk once and fell over'I guess he'll just have to crawl the rest of his life?"
"I'm over 70, it's just too late for me."
Over 70? So are 5 of the people in this e-book! Wait until you read about how a great-grand dad kicks the tails of kids literally 1/3 his age in the gym, in business AND in his love life! Wouldn't you like to find out how these 70+ year olds got themselves in fantastic shape? By the way, Jack Lalanne turned 90 recently and he still works out two hours a day. Ask Jack if he wishes he gave up at 70 because it was "too late."
