Dude I’m 53, started lifting and pushups again, and I already feel like I’m turning into an absolute animal! Maybe I’m blessed and like to think so, but getting older doesn’t stop me.
I’m 73 and increased my bench Olympic bar from 150 max to 285 max and my goal is 300! Never dreamed I could lift what I did in my 30’s! I always lift heavy and at least to 1rep in reserve!
HOly smokes that is impressive!! Careful...one tear or jiont injury at that age can be life changing No longer use real heavy stuff.....only moderate weight, strict form focus on the movement. Result is the same without the stress to joints and heart
I'm 64 years old and I am playing on a 50 and older men's hockey league. I basically retired full-time truck driving job in April of 2020. I was totally out of shape I weighed 198 lb. One day when I noticed my wife was staring at me and so I asked her why she was staring at me and she said because "my stomach was sticking out! This is when I realized I needed do something about my own health! You are right about men as they grow older it becomes more difficult to get back into shape. This is why "intensity"is more important than ever. I was bound and determined to get back into shape! "No pain no gain is very true in my case. I share my testimony only to say this you are never too old to get your body back in the shape! I can count on both hands the number of times people have told me I'm "to old" to be playing hockey. Now I am on the ice two to three times a week I'm doing light resistance training and weight training with dumbbells. I'm eating meat, chicken or fish (salmon) everyday. I get 6 or 7 hours every night of sleep. Now I am probably in the best shape of my life!! I'm always looking for tips on how to improve my health. I can honestly say that the quality of my life has improved drastically!! Now my wife looks at me differently but in a good sort of way!!
I am 64 also and its great to hear of people still getting after it. Just had a guy find my channel who is 72 and moving 295 on bench press safely. No supplementation just mindset, I love it. Guy is inspiring. His is ROCK THE CLOCK. Interesting guy.
I’m 52 and still able to keep up with guys in they’re 30s on the ice , for a while, by the 3rd period I start to fade , but that’s just a reality of getting older. Nice to hear at 62 your hitting the ice , I really believe the key is don’t stop, you can slow down, but don’t stop skating and being active. Cheers
I'm 64 and keeping a routine. Did a 350 or 355 bench on my last birthday. No TRT or anything but I do sometimes take creatine pretty regular but on and off because you know I'm 64 and I forget lol.
I'm 62 and knocked my sets down to one at age 60. One warm up set and one 'death' set to true failure with good form. Anywhere from 12 to 20 reps at a deliberate and slow cadence. It's a mind game for sure but I tell myself I can take anything for one set. I'm still getting results and doms for sure.
Thank You Mark I'm 59 been watching your videos for 2 years now and I have been working out with dumbbells. Actually started out with 25 lbs each which was pretty light but I have worked my way up to 50 lbs each at this point. Never felt better but the UPS guy isn't very happy has to keep delivering heavy boxes with my new weights lol.
Dumbells are Aweome! Try compound movements, they help me reach gains asap! Of course, do targeted sets but after compound exercises... Then I switch it up & reverse set structure to shock muscles into new reps.
Mate.. this has helped me loads…. I’m 53 and used to train 6 days a week and have not trained for 6 years… it’s given me confidence in getting back into it… you look great. My wife is beautiful and you eat I’ve let myself go … but not anymore..: thanks to you …
Wow, you hit the Hammer with the Nail spot on. In July I will be age 80, for years I have been following my old saved videos. Sets, reps, not increasing weight, but I have noticed loosing body weight, not adding Dumbell weight for few years. I can do less Pull ups. Push ups, Dips, Abs Roller wheel. For first time I see, feel, believe this revelation is a life defining moment. Because my Grandpa died young and healthy at 107 ( Car Crash) and his sister 104, I Did Not get a free pass to collect the $200. Having retired at remote Tropical fishing village I have no commercial gym influence. Just basic home gym with cables that are safer than Squats. So I am paying close attention to your videos.
We appreciate how you gear your advice to the more mature guys. Far more encouraging than the channels where the younger workout bros have an attitude of "If you don't do my extreme workout right now, then you ain't sh*t!"
Excellent advice here from personal experience (54 yo tomorrow). The hardest thing is to find the motivation to push to your max. I see so many older guys working out who are not even breaking a sweat or going to failure. They are just going through the motions. Pushing yourself to the max while also focusing on the specific muscle group you are trying to hit is the absolute key. You need to focus so much more on the actual muscle, particularly the ones you don't see like back. Nutrition for me is the most difficult as I do like my beers and wine when going out. But cutting down on these HAS HAD a dramatic impact on my fat levels.
Same here. I'd say its one of the #1 impediments to building muscle after 50. As we get older we learn to do things easier, which is good, but should not be applied to resistance training. Once I started pushing again like I did in my youth, the results were forthcoming.
Have a heart condition so cant really go nuts like I did when younger. I do go lighters slower movement and get it burning real good. Still grow and can be very lean. Brain says train like Im 22 body says be careful or we will stop for you lol Know what you mean though. Even younger guys in the gym do half azz wimpy workouts . On thier phone talking the talk about gym stuff but sit around do a girly workout then leave. They always look the same
Turned 50 last year and have I have been doing 16:8 for almost a year now and I dropped 30 pounds in 2 months and have kept it off. I just need to add more resistance and weight training to build muscle. I’m the typical ‘skinny-fat’, I went from a 36" wait to a 32" but I still feel ‘flabby’ with the extra skin from losing it so quickly. I realize I’ll never look like I did in my 20’s but I can do everything I can to look better than my contemporaries and stay healthy into my 60’s and 70’s. I’m also newly single in a new city and dating for guys like me is like shooting fish in a barrel if you have a little style and aren’t built like Adam Sandler! 💪😁👍
Amazing stuff! All your videos are so well done and very useful. I was wondering if you could answer a question for me. Have you ever used any of these custom meal plan tools? I got one from Next Level Diet to help me add some muscle and I actually like their plans. Was just wondering if you've heard of or tried any of them yourself. Thank you!
Hi. I'm in my mid 50s. Your message is spot on! I wish I knew in my youth what I know now. It does take years to understand the details. And a lot of it is through trial and error. To bad youtube wasn't around back then. Lol Keep up the good work you do informing.
You CAN gain muscle after 50. He said it in this video, your body uses carbs instead of fat when we get older, so if you tweak your diet to eating some complex carbs, cut out simple carbs they convert to sugar anyway, which converts to fat storage. Eat the majority of carbs(complex) in the 1st half of your day, slam in some good protein, lift 5-8 Reps heavy x 3 sets per exercise, for 2 weeks for 45 minute workouts, make them at the end of your day at least 3-4 hrs before you would sleep or nap. Make sure you get a protein snack or meal in no later than 45-an hour after your workout, you want to stay "Anabolic", not "Catabolic". You can do cardio first chance in the beginning of your day, your body has no choice but to use bodyfat as energy, throw in some light weight lifting 12-15 reps 4-5 sets, something you can handle pretty easily like lateral presses, side laterals, shrugs, biceps. Smaller muscle parts. Our cells are like little babies, just observe a child screaming, feeding cycles, sleeping, our cells have "bellies", when they are full, they volumize, when they sleep/rest they grow.. same as a plant in the nighttime. Check it out for yourself. You can even flipflop doing 2 weeks light- moderate lifting, 2 weeks heavy out of a month. On days you feel weak or tired, supplement w/extra protein, and do more reps, less sets. 💪🐻❄️
Yup, getting enough protein is the hardest part for me. I work out hard, compete in power lifting with state records, and sleep well, but getting enough protein is just tough. One thing I have noticed, is just by upping my protein, via supplementation with protein drinks, and not changing the amount or any other diet habit, I'll lose fat and weight. I figure it's due to the body having to digest that extra protein, pulling energy from fat stores to do so, hence causing fat loss and leaning you out. I've seen you and your commercials through the years, and really enjoy what you have to say, thanks for putting out quality content!!
Very practical advice Mark. Lots of tubers assume we are all young, 6ft 2 and look like Elvis. I'm 60 and only 5ft 7 but really enjoying my workout. I'm back in work on Tuesday and taking some Whey will be part of my training from now. Creatine didn't do anything for me so I'll give the protein a try. Great content. Thanks so much.
I'm a 66 year old woman that pushes weight at the gym and I look amazing! I like five sets of twelve reps. Twelve because a woman's cell only absorbs a certain amount of testosterone so we as women need twelve reps as opposed to only eight or nine. It works! My reps are performed to failure and I increase my weight slowly. I put 60% of young women in their 30s to shame. I should inform everyone that I was an athlete when I was a young woman and always remained physically active. I eat properly and cook my food from scratch. If any women are reading this ...... good luck ladies!!
Thank you for your comment. Since menopause my muscles loss is horrendous. Have always been athletic. Always able to build muscle and thin down no matter what I ate ( typically eat clean anyways 90/10 type of split to not be that "weird" eater in social settings 🤣). The injuries and such in the last few years have really done a number on me too. I'm determined to get focused/ prioritize muscle gain going forward. I think I finally have my hormones in check as much as I can except the estrogen and testosterone is still low but no more yoyo stuff. I know my boundaries now. I'm a morning person but have learnt now my body is way less injury prone doing heavy work in the afternoon. I love to hear stories of over 60's women getting it done.❤️
Sleep was my achilles heel it's absolutely vital that we sleep well and for at least seven hours and it's worth remembering lifting weights does NOT build muscle rest and recovery build muscle.
Lifting weights if done correctly can stimulate the muscle to produce a positive adaptive response But your muscles don’t grow in the gym Once the muscle has been stimulated enough , the next period must be rest ( recover ) only after the recovery process is complete , only then the muscle will grow
I am mainly on a carnivore diet with a few single ingredient carbs now and then. I am 64 and started this at 61 and lost 40 pounds and look really ripped. I get looks at the gym simply because of my age and the way I look and lift. I agree with him, I want to cheat old age as long as I can!
Your video came up in my RUclips feed and I’m glad I clicked to review 😊. I’m turning 64 next month and female and wanting to take my pump iron progress to the next level. Taking into consideration the hormone differences, one’s nutrition and eating plan and genetics, anyone can start at any age to improve their health and body build muscle, maintaining muscle is a key to maintaining quality of life as we age. I clicked to subscribe to your channel, thank you for your informative material 💪🏾
I lift heavy with intensity at 72. i have been lifting for 7 years, 2 hours a day, 5 days a week. I was a skinny, pot bellied office worker sitting behind a computer. Today my personal best for bench press is 295 lbs. My PR for deadlift is 320 and my PR for squatting is 360. I am definitely NOT genetically gifted. Most men over 60 live their lives in fear. Fear they will tear a muscle, fear that they might rip a tendon or sprain their back. Friends and wives say, be careful, you could be hurt. The key is spend time warming up with resistance bands before you lift and be a fanatic about proper form. Go to a commercial gym where they have the biggest diversity of equipment and plate weights. Wear gym shorts and gym shirt. Its always a dead giveaway that you are a geezer when you show up wearing long pants. I know, you don't want to show off your skinny legs. The whole point is be intentional. Just do it. Don't let your life be run by fear. Weightlifting is a strength sport and anyone can master it and lift competitively.You can't play competitive baseball on a team at 72. You can't play football or basketball at 72. But you can be a serious competitor in weightlifting till the day you die. I saw a 92 year old man deadlift 405 pounds. Don't just play games thinking you are going to "get fit" at the gym 45 minutes a day, 3 days a week. Why not go balls to the wall. Its a lot more fun.
Are you natural at 72? Not on any TRT or Peds, etc?? Yes or No? 2 hours a day is more cortisol. Are you using free weights or universal?? There is a difference!
@@johnnboy100 A doctor diagnosed very low testosterone and prescribed TRT to get back to normal ranges. I take it as a cream applied to the skin. No PEDSA, no Sarms etc. I am using free weights. When I say a 295 PR for bench that means plates on a barbell. The 2 hours includes 10 minutes of cardio, 15 minutes of stretches with bands and kettlebell goblet squats. Then I move on to lifting weights. Been doing this for 7 years.
I am 54 and have been gaining muscle and having great workouts.. Mostly eat a fat, protein KETO-ish diet with low carbs - under 75mgs a day. And certain supplements - D, C, Magnesium, Zinc, B1 and B6, Omega 3's and NAC
I’m almost 55, have trained most of my life, lifetime drug-free, was a competitive powerlifter in my 20’s. Oh, how my destroyed joints envy the folks in the comments that started lifting late and are relatively injury-free!
Lots of inspiration here..and you know what? It fucking works!! Ive felt guilty for not going to the gym for so long....NO MORE! Resistance BANDS are the deal!
I just turned 50 in December. I started working out again last summer after taking nearly twenty years off (lazy). Currently, I am doing a six-day PPL split. The muscle is returning just as fast as it did when I was 30, no doubt. It is all about hitting your macros, using proper form (concentrating on the concentric), and adding weight and/or reps every week. Supplements aren't necessary, but it helps. I take D, B complex, fish oil, a multi, and 5g creatine a day. I'm 6'3" 265, but I'd like to cut down to about 240. Dr. Mike's videos @ Renaissance Periodization changed my life.
Yes, very useful information for someone like me who exercises at home with limited equipment. It's what I would have assumed myself, but it's good to have these things validated.
Tip 1. Intensity. Work hard. It’s okay to be uncomfortable Keeps track of your progress. Slowly increase number of reps or sets 2. Eat more protein 3. Sleep
Sir, I am over 50 yr old and trying to build some muscle, I have been taking Whey protein but don’t really know how much I should take. What is your recommendation for 165 lbs me? Thank you
My respect for you went down a notch when you got to last tip about taking the reload supplement. Understand you gotta make a living but no study evidence that this helps and may even have some negative side effects. Exercise, diet, and sleep will do it.
I'm 67, and I push hard every time. If I can't do 5 reps, I'm going too heavy. If I'm doing more than 12, it's time to raise the weight. I also vary my exercises a lot to keep my muscles confused, or I plateau. I'm steadily gaining strength. I love it when I'm pushing for 10 reps, and go to 14. If I'm not pushing the envelope, I may as well find something else to do.
Hey mark! Great content! Can you or have you spoken on TRT/HRT? You appear to be on that protocol along with your training. I’m 58 seeing dips in T levels effecting what you spoke about in intro. Do you prefer injections, pellets, etc? We Could use an educated perspective on TRT.. Thanks for the channel!
@@BlackMamba-lt8oe I’d hope he has or can be upfront about it especially and specifically since he’s pedaling a supplement! The liverking thing! Can’t be selling a product if you can’t speak on your real protocol! Just isn’t ethical! Hopefully since I’m new to channel, I’ll find his content on TRT..
@@stonefitnesshungary1415 I think if you’re promoting sups based on your physique and success you’re trying to sell, you need to be transparent or you lose credibility and it’s just not cool. No shame in TRT, it be better to educate folks on how to do it properly or it’s pitfalls. That’s worthy of a channel itself! But if it’s sups you’re selling I can see why you wouldn’t do that.. today more than ever, folks are seeking truth!
Amazingly this guy nailed it ... INTENSITY .. this I see lacking in most older people .. I would sooner do 2 sets to maximum intensity than 5 at going through the motions .. age 28 I was knocking on the door at 500 BP natural .. at 60 now I'm at 360 and hanging on .. my back has been injured at 24 but I work around squats and get descent results.. I also do intermittent fasting .. eat at 12 and 5 .. one thing that did come up for myself .. I have lowered my fat intake and it has trimmed me nicely .. the added fat was just simply too many calories
60s here, here , Third week lifting after years of just riding bike started to loose muscle 24.1 body fat have to work on leaving the milk ,sugar and bread very hard cravings but I fell lot better!
All good stuff, thanks. So at 51 I have found that recovery management (sleep and days off the gym) require more attention than programming my workouts. I also have a specific nutrition plan. Having said that, I do follow a program, and have a PR list that covers 1 RM to 10 reps for each of the 3 barbell lifts (Sq., B., DL). Maintaining strength is my goal, not aethetics or a certain ceiling for my BW. Currently I can squat 405 for 10, and 525 for 1. Bench 270 for 10, 340 for 1. DL 425 for 10, 540 for 1.
The amount of protein is most important on the day before you workout, and your post workout meal. The rest of the time, you don't need to be constantly eating protein. 0.6-0.8 grams per lb of bodyweight is fine, the day before or the meal after your workout. I only workout 2 days a week and see the results I want because I go hard, full-body, those 2 days
well current weight of course the muscle mass you do not have yet does not need proteins. proteins you do not need or use will end up in fat like carbs.
Experiment. Everyone responds differently. And that goes with training as well as nutrition. There is no one set answer for everyone. If someone says different they are lying to you.
Why didn't Mark reply to your question? Could it be he makes a video them moves on the the next task he needs to do to sell workout plans and push supplements on people?
@@Rob-lz5iz he did say its calculated according to your weight in the video , no clue why someone would assume you needed proteins to nourish muscle or tissues that do not exist yet.
@@Rob-lz5iz Subject Matter Experts are all over the place on this, just like how much water to drink per day. Autumn Bates, a certified clinical nutritionist, has a 3 minute YT video on how to calculate protein. The title is "How To Calculate Your Protein Needs [Weight Loss vs. Fitness]". Her formula is 1.2 to 1.6 grams of protein times your weight in kg, so if you picked somewhere in the middle for protein and use 1.4 x 68.2 kg for example (which is about 150 lbs) = 95 grams of protein. She says if you BMI is over 30, then calculate to your goal weight. I've read lower (.6 gram per pound) to higher calculations up to 1 gram per pound. Everyone is a n of 1. I would start low and go from there.
I changed my eating ways I cut out sugar, cut out gluten. stopped eating processed foods, lot's of vegetables kale, sweet potatoes, clean meat, fish, nothing but water, I'll use a good electrolyte additive twice a day in my water, green tea, no dairy. I switched to oat milk for protein Shakes. I lost 10lbs in one month with just eating healthy. I suffer from sarcoidosis autoimmune inflammation, so this change in my eating has been a huge decision. Stay healthy to all that read this. God Bless
How i do loose muscle for roadbike cycling. Im 178 pounds .not super super lean . Carrying 2 .5. Extea fat . Need to loose 2.5 to 3 pounds upper body . Any good suggestions?? Cheers 🍺
I’m 52 and have a very high labido will this product work for me to build more muscle or will this have a negative affect on my labido levels.. Please advise
My main concern as a sextegenarian is injury - I’m definitely on the protein train, am doing some creatine supplementation but I tend to train slow and hard while hyperventilating to keep muscles oxygenated and ignite fat burning
Maybe enter some nitric oxide supplemetation into your program along with the creatine. I have been reading the book Health is Wealth performance nutrition and sure puts the narative for NO and its precursors. It makes sense and there are resonable brands out there. Not all a rip off like umzo or stuff like that.
I am 64 with a 355 bench press and slogging it out on sets. I use the isolate protein drinks when I need one. Hopefully if I eat well I don't but supplementing one of the water type protein water seems a better bet than higher calorie options. As we get older the balancing act of not over training is the struggle. If I have a big chest day and I want to go 3 or 4 times a week I have to make plan to target other muscle areas that won't leave me constantly in recovery without ever reaching that fully recovered day when you can set a new best.
Since Mark wont answer your question, I will. Don't track number of shakes, track overall grams of protein consumed per day and use the shakes to get to that goal after accounting for your food intake. 1g of protein per pound of bodyweight is a good starting point. There , that's all you need to know. Mark will just tell you to buy his fat burner and test booster and Anabolic Reload and Anabolic Reload PM and Anabolic Pump and Anabolic Shred and Anabolic Boost and Anabolic Shield and TestoGreens and Anabolic ATP and you dont need any of that.
Following on from Rob and Macs, my research has uncovered that the best time to drink a protein shake is straight after your workout, when your muscles are crying out for a protein (& some carbs) hit to start the recovery process. Whey protein shakes are very quickly absorbed by the body, whereas the protein in most natural foods is metabolised at a much slower rate. So, protein should be sourced from good quality foods across the day (chicken, fish, beef etc like Macs said) and topped up after your workout via the whey protein shake.
Without pharmaceuticals regardless of age once you have already been training a few years your body has basically maxed out and adding any new muscle is extremely difficult.. Whether you're 25 or 50 after 2 or 3 years of hard training with good nutrition you basically hit your peak and from that point on it's just maintenance.. Nobody can convince me otherwise just from my own experience and observing others who have been training regularly
Eat good, lift every day, stretch.... same thing i learned in my PE class in 1983 as a 9 year old man. Probably wrong video response, but lift ,let God figure the rest. X.
Make sure people realize when it comes to the amount of daily protein, that it's by VOLUME, not by weight. For example if you want to eat 200 grams of protein in a day, two 100 grams (by weight) chicken breasts - which is protein - ONLY CONTAIN about 68 - 70 grams total of protein (by volume). So you would need to eat about three 100 gram chicken breasts to get about 200 grams of protein.
Correction - you would need to eat about SIX 100 gram chicken breasts to get/eat approximately 200 grams of protein since each 100 gram chicken breast contains about 34 - 35 grams of protein.
That's a pretty sick guarantee! When someone offers that to you. You just know, it's going to work lol. Good for you Mark. Thanks for all these tips, I can share with my Dad.
I’m 66. After waking up, around 6 in the morning, a cup of coffee and a banana I work out for more than an hour. In the late afternoon I do 3 series of correct executed pushups, abs or neck training. As an example; when I do my shoulders I still manage to perform between 15 and 20 pull-ups, 3 series broadest grip, 1 set shoulder grip. Then the dumbbells and barbel portion. I practice I.F. For over 8 years now. I eat healthy and have banned all but natural sugars. I don’t drink alcohol (not a drop) and I don’t smoke. Every day I meditate for about an hour. When I go for a walk in the afternoon I still feel like 30. When I’m on holiday a lot of other guests around the swimming pool hate my guts. A little payoff, by no means essential but motivational nonetheless and always funny. I don’t have any knee, back or other health problems. I don’t take any medication. I don’t give a toss about reaching 70, 80, 150, or 250 years. What I do care about is my well being, physically, mentally and emotionally in the here and know. And I can assure you I feel great from early morning until bedtime. And believe it or not but more than once people have asked me: ‘but don’t you miss a lot in life? ‘Seriously???’
Great video, build muscle at 50 jesus I'm 42 and progress has been almost non existent last two years despite using ped , training like a mad man and perfect to bring obsessive with nutrition

I see you illuminated the Doyle’s but I think it works pretty well taking the Doyle’s rope through on of the holes in the bottom of the pack and keeping the Doyle’s inside the pack, less fiddle factor as compared to using a rope and caribener in my opinion, albeit a little heavier. I like the sidekick on the seat idea! Nice rig!
Dude I’m 53, started lifting and pushups again, and I already feel like I’m turning into an absolute animal! Maybe I’m blessed and like to think so, but getting older doesn’t stop me.
Yeah I'm still working but I was at 290lbs now I'm 200 lbs just started pushups but I feel great
@jonny9finger I'm 290 and want to be 210. Please tell me 1 or 2 things or anything what helped u most to get to 200 ? Appreciate any info. Thanks
You're still young, dude.
I’m 73 and increased my bench Olympic bar from 150 max to 285 max and my goal is 300! Never dreamed I could lift what I did in my 30’s! I always lift heavy and at least to 1rep in reserve!
HOly smokes that is impressive!! Careful...one tear or jiont injury at that age can be life changing
No longer use real heavy stuff.....only moderate weight, strict form focus on the movement. Result is the same without the stress to joints and heart
Are you on TRT?
I'm 64 years old and I am playing on a 50 and older men's hockey league. I basically retired full-time truck driving job in April of 2020. I was totally out of shape I weighed 198 lb. One day when I noticed my wife was staring at me and so I asked her why she was staring at me and she said because "my stomach was sticking out! This is when I realized I needed do something about my own health!
You are right about men as they grow older it becomes more difficult to get back into shape. This is why "intensity"is more important than ever. I was bound and determined to get back into shape!

I can count on both hands the number of times people have told me I'm "to old" to be playing hockey. Now I am on the ice two to three times a week I'm doing light resistance training and weight training with dumbbells. I'm eating meat, chicken or fish (salmon) everyday. I get 6 or 7 hours every night of sleep. Now I am probably in the best shape of my life!! I'm always looking for tips on how to improve my health. I can honestly say that the quality of my life has improved drastically!! Now my wife looks at me differently but in a good sort of way!!
I am 64 also and its great to hear of people still getting after it. Just had a guy find my channel who is 72 and moving 295 on bench press safely. No supplementation just mindset, I love it. Guy is inspiring. His is ROCK THE CLOCK. Interesting guy.
I’m 52 and still able to keep up with guys in they’re 30s on the ice , for a while, by the 3rd period I start to fade , but that’s just a reality of getting older. Nice to hear at 62 your hitting the ice , I really believe the key is don’t stop, you can slow down, but don’t stop skating and being active. Cheers
Get a life
So now the wife must getting close to You cos you hot
I'm 64 and keeping a routine. Did a 350 or 355 bench on my last birthday. No TRT or anything but I do sometimes take creatine pretty regular but on and off because you know I'm 64 and I forget lol.
I'm 62 and knocked my sets down to one at age 60. One warm up set and one 'death' set to true failure with good form. Anywhere from 12 to 20 reps at a deliberate and slow cadence. It's a mind game for sure but I tell myself I can take anything for one set. I'm still getting results and doms for sure.
I'm 53 and recently started doing one set to failure; getting excellent results!
Can we swap bodies, please?
61, and doing the same thing, but 6-10 reps. Love Mike Mentzer and Dorian Yates, and their scientific way of building muscle.
Thank You Mark I'm 59 been watching your videos for 2 years now and I have been working out with dumbbells. Actually started out with 25 lbs each which was pretty light but I have worked my way up to 50 lbs each at this point. Never felt better but the UPS guy isn't very happy has to keep delivering heavy boxes with my new weights lol.
Dumbells are Aweome! Try compound movements, they help me reach gains asap! Of course, do targeted sets but after compound exercises... Then I switch it up & reverse set structure to shock muscles into new reps.
I feel the UPS man's pain, in South Africa we have Takealot and I feel his pain when I order more weights.
lol. UPS guy. Oh ffs this Cnut again? lol.
Mate.. this has helped me loads…. I’m 53 and used to train 6 days a week and have not trained for 6 years… it’s given me confidence in getting back into it… you look great. My wife is beautiful and you eat I’ve let myself go … but not anymore..: thanks to you …
I’m in my 50’s I now try to take two days off between workouts I recover better and get better workouts and I actually have put on muscle
Wow, you hit the Hammer with the Nail spot on. In July I will be age 80, for years I have been following my old saved videos. Sets, reps, not increasing weight, but I have noticed loosing body weight, not adding Dumbell weight for few years. I can do less Pull ups. Push ups, Dips, Abs Roller wheel. For first time I see, feel, believe this revelation is a life defining moment.
Because my Grandpa died young and healthy at 107 ( Car Crash) and his sister 104, I Did Not get a free pass to collect the $200. Having retired at remote Tropical fishing village I have no commercial gym influence. Just basic home gym with cables that are safer than Squats. So I am paying close attention to your videos.
Respects!!
Working for free yoyos . Could drop dead any minute now
@@TNT-km2eg what do you mean??
Intensity, protein and sleep. Got it.
Just saved me 16 minutes. Thanks
😂🙏🏼
No 👎! It's sleep, protein, and intensity. 😶
Coincidentally exactly what you need to build muscle at 18. Only much much slower.
What discovery for older guys, who knew?? 😂
Dont forget to buy his 'fat burner' pills!
We appreciate how you gear your advice to the more mature guys. Far more encouraging than the channels where the younger workout bros have an attitude of "If you don't do my extreme workout right now, then you ain't sh*t!"
Excellent advice here from personal experience (54 yo tomorrow). The hardest thing is to find the motivation to push to your max. I see so many older guys working out who are not even breaking a sweat or going to failure. They are just going through the motions. Pushing yourself to the max while also focusing on the specific muscle group you are trying to hit is the absolute key. You need to focus so much more on the actual muscle, particularly the ones you don't see like back. Nutrition for me is the most difficult as I do like my beers and wine when going out. But cutting down on these HAS HAD a dramatic impact on my fat levels.
Same here. I'd say its one of the #1 impediments to building muscle after 50. As we get older we learn to do things easier, which is good, but should not be applied to resistance training.
Once I started pushing again like I did in my youth, the results were forthcoming.
Have a heart condition so cant really go nuts like I did when younger. I do go lighters slower movement and get it burning real good. Still grow and can be very lean. Brain says train like Im 22 body says be careful or we will stop for you lol
Know what you mean though. Even younger guys in the gym do half azz wimpy workouts . On thier phone talking the talk about gym stuff but sit around do a girly workout then leave. They always look the same
At 50; Intermittent fasting works great too!
Big facts !
Turned 50 last year and have I have been doing 16:8 for almost a year now and I dropped 30 pounds in 2 months and have kept it off. I just need to add more resistance and weight training to build muscle. I’m the typical ‘skinny-fat’, I went from a 36" wait to a 32" but I still feel ‘flabby’ with the extra skin from losing it so quickly. I realize I’ll never look like I did in my 20’s but I can do everything I can to look better than my contemporaries and stay healthy into my 60’s and 70’s. I’m also newly single in a new city and dating for guys like me is like shooting fish in a barrel if you have a little style and aren’t built like Adam Sandler! 💪😁👍
@rickybobby - I’m absolutely with you on that one, sir. Dating at my age is super easy as well👍🏼 Soooo much fun 😅
Amazing stuff! All your videos are so well done and very useful. I was wondering if you could answer a question for me. Have you ever used any of these custom meal plan tools? I got one from Next Level Diet to help me add some muscle and I actually like their plans. Was just wondering if you've heard of or tried any of them yourself. Thank you!
Hi. I'm in my mid 50s. Your message is spot on! I wish I knew in my youth what I know now. It does take years to understand the details. And a lot of it is through trial and error. To bad youtube wasn't around back then.
Lol
Keep up the good work you do informing.
You CAN gain muscle after 50. He said it in this video, your body uses carbs instead of fat when we get older, so if you tweak your diet to eating some complex carbs, cut out simple carbs they convert to sugar anyway, which converts to fat storage. Eat the majority of carbs(complex) in the 1st half of your day, slam in some good protein, lift 5-8 Reps heavy x 3 sets per exercise, for 2 weeks for 45 minute workouts, make them at the end of your day at least 3-4 hrs before you would sleep or nap. Make sure you get a protein snack or meal in no later than 45-an hour after your workout, you want to stay "Anabolic", not "Catabolic". You can do cardio first chance in the beginning of your day, your body has no choice but to use bodyfat as energy, throw in some light weight lifting 12-15 reps 4-5 sets, something you can handle pretty easily like lateral presses, side laterals, shrugs, biceps. Smaller muscle parts. Our cells are like little babies, just observe a child screaming, feeding cycles, sleeping, our cells have "bellies", when they are full, they volumize, when they sleep/rest they grow.. same as a plant in the nighttime. Check it out for yourself. You can even flipflop doing 2 weeks light- moderate lifting,
2 weeks heavy out of a month. On days you feel weak or tired, supplement w/extra protein, and do more reps, less sets.
💪🐻❄️
Thanks for the info. I'm 58, still working out and jumping and racing dirtbikes. A body in motion stays in motion.
Yup, getting enough protein is the hardest part for me. I work out hard, compete in power lifting with state records, and sleep well, but getting enough protein is just tough. One thing I have noticed, is just by upping my protein, via supplementation with protein drinks, and not changing the amount or any other diet habit, I'll lose fat and weight. I figure it's due to the body having to digest that extra protein, pulling energy from fat stores to do so, hence causing fat loss and leaning you out. I've seen you and your commercials through the years, and really enjoy what you have to say, thanks for putting out quality content!!
Very practical advice Mark. Lots of tubers assume we are all young, 6ft 2 and look like Elvis. I'm 60 and only 5ft 7 but really enjoying my workout. I'm back in work on Tuesday and taking some Whey will be part of my training from now. Creatine didn't do anything for me so I'll give the protein a try. Great content. Thanks so much.
I'm a 66 year old woman that pushes weight at the gym and I look amazing! I like five sets of twelve reps. Twelve because a woman's cell only absorbs a certain amount of testosterone so we as women need twelve reps as opposed to only eight or nine. It works! My reps are performed to failure and I increase my weight slowly. I put 60% of young women in their 30s to shame. I should inform everyone that I was an athlete when I was a young woman and always remained physically active. I eat properly and cook my food from scratch. If any women are reading this ...... good luck ladies!!
Good on you your back ground helping a lot keep going
Thank you!
Great info, do you use creatine by any chance?
@@jillmartin5734 No.
Thank you for your comment. Since menopause my muscles loss is horrendous.
Have always been athletic. Always able to build muscle and thin down no matter what I ate ( typically eat clean anyways 90/10 type of split to not be that "weird" eater in social settings 🤣). The injuries and such in the last few years have really done a number on me too. I'm determined to get focused/ prioritize muscle gain going forward. I think I finally have my hormones in check as much as I can except the estrogen and testosterone is still low but no more yoyo stuff. I know my boundaries now. I'm a morning person but have learnt now my body is way less injury prone doing heavy work in the afternoon.
I love to hear stories of over 60's women getting it done.❤️
Sleep was my achilles heel it's absolutely vital that we sleep well and for at least seven hours and it's worth remembering lifting weights does NOT build muscle rest and recovery build muscle.
Lol you do need to lift weights 😂
Lifting weights if done correctly can stimulate the muscle to produce a positive adaptive response
But your muscles don’t grow in the gym
Once the muscle has been stimulated enough , the next period must be rest ( recover ) only after the recovery process is complete , only then the muscle will grow
Basically:
Train hard
Eat more protein
Sleep more
I'm doing two of them 😂
Haha😂
I am mainly on a carnivore diet with a few single ingredient carbs now and then. I am 64 and started this at 61 and lost 40 pounds and look really ripped. I get looks at the gym simply because of my age and the way I look and lift. I agree with him, I want to cheat old age as long as I can!
Dubya is jacked!
Funny!
Excellent, easy to understand tips for building muscle for the older weight training athlete!
Your video came up in my RUclips feed and I’m glad I clicked to review 😊. I’m turning 64 next month and female and wanting to take my pump iron progress to the next level. Taking into consideration the hormone differences, one’s nutrition and eating plan and genetics, anyone can start at any age to improve their health and body build muscle, maintaining muscle is a key to maintaining quality of life as we age. I clicked to subscribe to your channel, thank you for your informative material 💪🏾
Do you get a muscle pump , ? How long ?
@@anthonyvenegas8299 Yup! And I feel very much alert and invigorated after a good workout 👍🏾
@@anthonyvenegas8299 Many times I dont...doesnt mean the muscle didnt get worked properly
I lift heavy with intensity at 72. i have been lifting for 7 years, 2 hours a day, 5 days a week. I was a skinny, pot bellied office worker sitting behind a computer. Today my personal best for bench press is 295 lbs. My PR for deadlift is 320 and my PR for squatting is 360. I am definitely NOT genetically gifted. Most men over 60 live their lives in fear. Fear they will tear a muscle, fear that they might rip a tendon or sprain their back. Friends and wives say, be careful, you could be hurt. The key is spend time warming up with resistance bands before you lift and be a fanatic about proper form. Go to a commercial gym where they have the biggest diversity of equipment and plate weights. Wear gym shorts and gym shirt. Its always a dead giveaway that you are a geezer when you show up wearing long pants. I know, you don't want to show off your skinny legs. The whole point is be intentional. Just do it. Don't let your life be run by fear.
Weightlifting is a strength sport and anyone can master it and lift competitively.You can't play competitive baseball on a team at 72. You can't play football or basketball at 72. But you can be a serious competitor in weightlifting till the day you die. I saw a 92 year old man deadlift 405 pounds. Don't just play games thinking you are going to "get fit" at the gym 45 minutes a day, 3 days a week. Why not go balls to the wall. Its a lot more fun.
Are you natural at 72? Not on any TRT or Peds, etc?? Yes or No? 2 hours a day is more cortisol. Are you using free weights or universal?? There is a difference!
@@johnnboy100 A doctor diagnosed very low testosterone and prescribed TRT to get back to normal ranges. I take it as a cream applied to the skin. No PEDSA, no Sarms etc. I am using free weights. When I say a 295 PR for bench that means plates on a barbell. The 2 hours includes 10 minutes of cardio, 15 minutes of stretches with bands and kettlebell goblet squats. Then I move on to lifting weights. Been doing this for 7 years.
That's really impressive.. great job!
@@allpraisetothemosthigh7770 And I do give all praise to the most high! PTL.
@@rickdalbey6009 Nice! Keep up the good work💪!
I am 54 and have been gaining muscle and having great workouts.. Mostly eat a fat, protein KETO-ish diet with low carbs - under 75mgs a day. And certain supplements - D, C, Magnesium, Zinc, B1 and B6, Omega 3's and NAC
I’m almost 55, have trained most of my life, lifetime drug-free, was a competitive powerlifter in my 20’s. Oh, how my destroyed joints envy the folks in the comments that started lifting late and are relatively injury-free!
Protein 1 gram body 1.5-2gram protein 😊
Wow. Thanks. Basic, good information I needed to hear. Really appreciate it!
TRT is a game changer for us older guys.
Great tutorial, inspirational and educational. Thanks for sharing!!
Great wisdom and information on this website...Thanks for all your help !
Lots of inspiration here..and you know what? It fucking works!! Ive felt guilty for not going to the gym for so long....NO MORE! Resistance BANDS are the deal!
I just turned 50 in December. I started working out again last summer after taking nearly twenty years off (lazy). Currently, I am doing a six-day PPL split. The muscle is returning just as fast as it did when I was 30, no doubt. It is all about hitting your macros, using proper form (concentrating on the concentric), and adding weight and/or reps every week. Supplements aren't necessary, but it helps. I take D, B complex, fish oil, a multi, and 5g creatine a day. I'm 6'3" 265, but I'd like to cut down to about 240. Dr. Mike's videos @ Renaissance Periodization changed my life.
Anabolics always help.
I will be 64 in January. Lifting since I was 14. Great video. Take L- Argentine. Vasodilator.
Useless
@@BlackMamba-lt8oe How do you know?
I just turned 60 my self Mr. President, I realize I need more protein
😂
1) Intensity
2) Lactic Acid
3) Protein
4) Sleep
5) Supplements
Never considered extra sets as progressive overload. Genius
Yes, very useful information for someone like me who exercises at home with limited equipment. It's what I would have assumed myself, but it's good to have these things validated.
Tip 1. Intensity. Work hard. It’s okay to be uncomfortable Keeps track of your progress. Slowly increase number of reps or sets
2. Eat more protein
3. Sleep
So the trick to getting lean in your 50s is the same as when you're in your 20s. OK
@@vivalarazausarmyvet4453 yes
Great vid I feel like this totally applies to men in their 40s as well
Sir, I am over 50 yr old and trying to build some muscle,
I have been taking Whey protein but don’t really know how much I should take.
What is your recommendation for 165 lbs me?
Thank you
My respect for you went down a notch when you got to last tip about taking the reload supplement. Understand you gotta make a living but no study evidence that this helps and may even have some negative side effects. Exercise, diet, and sleep will do it.
Hi Mark. I bought your training videos last week and I am still waiting for the link to them. Can you please?
Intensity,Protein & Sleep. Thanks
and buy the pllls he's selling
How do you deal or manage joint pain from prolonged intensity or heavier weights?
Lower the intensity. Ease into heavier weights with good form.
What food we eat
Very good information for us old 👍 bodybuilding geezers! I really enjoyed this!
I'm 67, and I push hard every time. If I can't do 5 reps, I'm going too heavy. If I'm doing more than 12, it's time to raise the weight. I also vary my exercises a lot to keep my muscles confused, or I plateau. I'm steadily gaining strength. I love it when I'm pushing for 10 reps, and go to 14. If I'm not pushing the envelope, I may as well find something else to do.
Walk every single day for an hour and you sleep like cinderella.🏋♂🏋♂
Thanks Bro 👍
Hey mark! Great content! Can you or have you spoken on TRT/HRT? You appear to be on that protocol along with your training. I’m 58 seeing dips in T levels effecting what you spoke about in intro. Do you prefer injections, pellets, etc? We Could use an educated perspective on TRT.. Thanks for the channel!
He is on gear
@@BlackMamba-lt8oe I’d hope he has or can be upfront about it especially and specifically since he’s pedaling a supplement! The liverking thing! Can’t be selling a product if you can’t speak on your real protocol! Just isn’t ethical! Hopefully since I’m new to channel, I’ll find his content on TRT..
@@BobbyLouxMusic you cannot build a body his his without trt,
Nice comments! First he should speaks about his trt protocol. There is no such thing is building muscle over 50 naturally if you are not beginner.
@@stonefitnesshungary1415 I think if you’re promoting sups based on your physique and success you’re trying to sell, you need to be transparent or you lose credibility and it’s just not cool. No shame in TRT, it be better to educate folks on how to do it properly or it’s pitfalls. That’s worthy of a channel itself! But if it’s sups you’re selling I can see why you wouldn’t do that.. today more than ever, folks are seeking truth!
Amazingly this guy nailed it ... INTENSITY .. this I see lacking in most older people .. I would sooner do 2 sets to maximum intensity than 5 at going through the motions .. age 28 I was knocking on the door at 500 BP natural .. at 60 now I'm at 360 and hanging on .. my back has been injured at 24 but I work around squats and get descent results.. I also do intermittent fasting .. eat at 12 and 5 .. one thing that did come up for myself .. I have lowered my fat intake and it has trimmed me nicely .. the added fat was just simply too many calories
Ideally a video with transparency on supplementation would be great!
👍
60s here, here , Third week lifting after years of just riding bike started to loose muscle 24.1 body fat have to work on leaving the milk ,sugar and bread very hard cravings but I fell lot better!
All good stuff, thanks. So at 51 I have found that recovery management (sleep and days off the gym) require more attention than programming my workouts. I also have a specific nutrition plan. Having said that, I do follow a program, and have a PR list that covers 1 RM to 10 reps for each of the 3 barbell lifts (Sq., B., DL). Maintaining strength is my goal, not aethetics or a certain ceiling for my BW. Currently I can squat 405 for 10, and 525 for 1. Bench 270 for 10, 340 for 1. DL 425 for 10, 540 for 1.
should the 1g of protein of body weight be based on current weight or goal weight if also losing fat?
The amount of protein is most important on the day before you workout, and your post workout meal.
The rest of the time, you don't need to be constantly eating protein.
0.6-0.8 grams per lb of bodyweight is fine, the day before or the meal after your workout.
I only workout 2 days a week and see the results I want because I go hard, full-body, those 2 days

😂😂😂
Said nobody ever😂😂😂😂😂
This is great advice.
Lots of good nutrition,NewAge great company!
Perfect advice thanks
Bin auch 62 mache schon seit Jahren Fitness und mtb man fühlt sich immer fantastisch danach 👍👍💪💪🇩🇪
Mark, here is a question for you. Do you calculate your protein according to your current weight or your target weight?
well current weight of course the muscle mass you do not have yet does not need proteins. proteins you do not need or use will end up in fat like carbs.
Experiment. Everyone responds differently. And that goes with training as well as nutrition. There is no one set answer for everyone. If someone says different they are lying to you.
Why didn't Mark reply to your question? Could it be he makes a video them moves on the the next task he needs to do to sell workout plans and push supplements on people?
@@Rob-lz5iz he did say its calculated according to your weight in the video , no clue why someone would assume you needed proteins to nourish muscle or tissues that do not exist yet.
@@Rob-lz5iz Subject Matter Experts are all over the place on this, just like how much water to drink per day. Autumn Bates, a certified clinical nutritionist, has a 3 minute YT video on how to calculate protein. The title is "How To Calculate Your Protein Needs [Weight Loss vs. Fitness]". Her formula is 1.2 to 1.6 grams of protein times your weight in kg, so if you picked somewhere in the middle for protein and use 1.4 x 68.2 kg for example (which is about 150 lbs) = 95 grams of protein. She says if you BMI is over 30, then calculate to your goal weight. I've read lower (.6 gram per pound) to higher calculations up to 1 gram per pound. Everyone is a n of 1. I would start low and go from there.
Great video. Full of great info.
Great information!
Gotta ask what is your height,weight, and bicep measurement??
Thanks!
I changed my eating ways
I cut out sugar, cut out gluten. stopped eating processed foods, lot's of vegetables kale, sweet potatoes, clean meat, fish, nothing but water, I'll use a good electrolyte additive twice a day in my water, green tea, no dairy.
I switched to oat milk for protein Shakes.
I lost 10lbs in one month with just eating healthy.
I suffer from sarcoidosis autoimmune inflammation, so this change in my eating has been a huge decision.
Stay healthy to all that read this.
God Bless
Kale is garbage. Seriously. Another pretend wonder food.
I highly recommend any of the food counting apps to keep track of your macros. Very helpful.

Is this for women as well?
I’m 52 and have a very high labido will this product work for me to build more muscle or will this have a negative affect on my labido levels..
Please advise
“In a nut bag” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
My main concern as a sextegenarian is injury - I’m definitely on the protein train, am doing some creatine supplementation but I tend to train slow and hard while hyperventilating to keep muscles oxygenated and ignite fat burning
Maybe enter some nitric oxide supplemetation into your program along with the creatine. I have been reading the book Health is Wealth performance nutrition and sure puts the narative for NO and its precursors. It makes sense and there are resonable brands out there. Not all a rip off like umzo or stuff like that.
Great tips 👌
Thank you!
really enjoyed your video, advice i really needed, thank you
Good info, are you also taking hormone replacement?
Thanks man
Ok , so when 4set 14reps is possible, to increase weight and start with 3set 10reps. When does the treshold usually appear?
Are protein shakes helpful for building muscle? If so, how many shakes a day are recommended, 1-2?? I’m 58 years old I go to the gym 3-4 times a week.
I am 64 with a 355 bench press and slogging it out on sets. I use the isolate protein drinks when I need one. Hopefully if I eat well I don't but supplementing one of the water type protein water seems a better bet than higher calorie options. As we get older the balancing act of not over training is the struggle. If I have a big chest day and I want to go 3 or 4 times a week I have to make plan to target other muscle areas that won't leave me constantly in recovery without ever reaching that fully recovered day when you can set a new best.
Since Mark wont answer your question, I will. Don't track number of shakes, track overall grams of protein consumed per day and use the shakes to get to that goal after accounting for your food intake. 1g of protein per pound of bodyweight is a good starting point. There , that's all you need to know. Mark will just tell you to buy his fat burner and test booster and Anabolic Reload and Anabolic Reload PM and Anabolic Pump and Anabolic Shred and Anabolic Boost and Anabolic Shield and TestoGreens and Anabolic ATP and you dont need any of that.
Following on from Rob and Macs, my research has uncovered that the best time to drink a protein shake is straight after your workout, when your muscles are crying out for a protein (& some carbs) hit to start the recovery process. Whey protein shakes are very quickly absorbed by the body, whereas the protein in most natural foods is metabolised at a much slower rate. So, protein should be sourced from good quality foods across the day (chicken, fish, beef etc like Macs said) and topped up after your workout via the whey protein shake.
Thanks
Good stuff. You can definitely get away with a lot at a younger age.
I could do it at in my late 40, now I’m almost 60 and it is difficult. I don’t have problem with weight just getting my muscles to grow.
Without pharmaceuticals regardless of age once you have already been training a few years your body has basically maxed out and adding any new muscle is extremely difficult.. Whether you're 25 or 50 after 2 or 3 years of hard training with good nutrition you basically hit your peak and from that point on it's just maintenance.. Nobody can convince me otherwise just from my own experience and observing others who have been training regularly
Eat good, lift every day, stretch.... same thing i learned in my PE class in 1983 as a 9 year old man. Probably wrong video response, but lift ,let God figure the rest. X.
Great info. Thanks.
Are you on trt? Do you test your levels each year?
Make sure people realize when it comes to the amount of daily protein, that it's by VOLUME, not by weight.
For example if you want to eat 200 grams of protein in a day, two 100 grams (by weight) chicken breasts - which is protein - ONLY CONTAIN about 68 - 70 grams total of protein (by volume). So you would need to eat about three 100 gram chicken breasts to get about 200 grams of protein.
👍
Correction - you would need to eat about SIX 100 gram chicken breasts to get/eat approximately 200 grams of protein since each 100 gram chicken breast contains about 34 - 35 grams of protein.
Has anyone tried Reload PM? I'm afraid it will make me groggy when I wake up. Thanks.
Great shape.
More reps or more weight? Exercise everyday? Or twice a week?
Excellent video as usual
That's a pretty sick guarantee! When someone offers that to you. You just know, it's going to work lol. Good for you Mark. Thanks for all these tips, I can share with my Dad.
I’m 66. After waking up, around 6 in the morning, a cup of coffee and a banana I work out for more than an hour. In the late afternoon I do 3 series of correct executed pushups, abs or neck training. As an example; when I do my shoulders I still manage to perform between 15 and 20 pull-ups, 3 series broadest grip, 1 set shoulder grip. Then the dumbbells and barbel portion.
I practice I.F. For over 8 years now. I eat healthy and have banned all but natural sugars. I don’t drink alcohol (not a drop) and I don’t smoke. Every day I meditate for about an hour. When I go for a walk in the afternoon I still feel like 30. When I’m on holiday a lot of other guests around the swimming pool hate my guts. A little payoff, by no means essential but motivational nonetheless and always funny.
I don’t have any knee, back or other health problems. I don’t take any medication. I don’t give a toss about reaching 70, 80, 150, or 250 years. What I do care about is my well being, physically, mentally and emotionally in the here and know. And I can assure you I feel great from early morning until bedtime.
And believe it or not but more than once people have asked me: ‘but don’t you miss a lot in life?
‘Seriously???’

I see you illuminated the Doyle’s but I think it works pretty well taking the Doyle’s rope through on of the holes in the bottom of the pack and keeping the Doyle’s inside the pack, less fiddle factor as compared to using a rope and caribener in my opinion, albeit a little heavier.
