Very useful. Where is the training video?
But what about menopausal women? Ive literally gained this huge menopause belly 😭 I now wake at 5am and started 10-20 minute workouts 5x/week but nothing is shifting 😢
I used to strength train when I was younger. I had some setbacks and got away from it. Now, in my 60s, I need to lose weight and realized I need to get back into strength training and eating right. It's not too late. I've been eating better for about a year, but started strength training 2 weeks ago. I already can tell the difference. I wish I hadn't fell off, but no looking back now. Just moving forward into better health from here on out. Your channel is great.
Love this video and LOVE strength training ❤ Just turned 57.
I'm 45 and i need to work in my bakery startup for long but i feel back weakened that i feel like to lie down often. Pain in palm muscle after chopping and feet after standing long. As i understand I'm losing muscle mass pls guide
Thank you so much for all your advice
This works. I'm in my 70s and strength training is giving me a more enjoyable life.
I recently tried Alpino Rolled Oats and Peanut Butter, and it changed my weight loss game! Packed with protein, fiber, and deliciousness, they're the perfect solution for anyone wanting to lose weight without giving up taste

Thank you ❤
I watch videos like this as I work out. If I don’t, I get lazy!!! 😂
It always work. I think I watched every strength training from you tube by now. I have been working out for 7 years now.
❤ thanks
Yea
I'm 42 and I weight train 4x a week as part of my circuit training. Love it!!
Ur video is an eye-opening for me. I’m 54 now, and have mostly been doing cycling, walking only. Never thought how important strength training would b as we age. What exercises can I do @ home wirhout any dumbells/equiment ? Thanx & greetings from Indonesia 🙋🏻♀️🇮🇩
Is Pilates Reformer considered strength training? In the classes, we use a lot of resistance, body weight, springs and pulleys. You can add more springs for more resistance. Thank you for all that you do!
Happy I found this. Strength training is not the same when you're older. Risk of injury is greater. I appreciate the attention to addressing safety
The variation of dumbbells is extremely useful for a small person like me https://www.youtube.com/post/UgkxP26Tir6n60vUkdtn4mbwhRO8cwuJQNy2 But the dumbbell size being large it's hard to do certain exercises like deadlift ( I have to have my hands and legs a bit wider to accommodate the size of the DB )Otherwise happy with the purchase. No excuse not to lift weight when it's snowing outside.
Omg we know why
I’ve been trying to do strength training for the last year on and off. Off because I keep getting biceps tendinitis so keep having to lay off.
Can you recommend a full body (particularly upper body) sequence that I could do without aggravating my bicep tendon?
Just to add I am doing rehab for my tendinitis but it’s still sore and I’m getting fed up doing what I’m doing, I need more to strengthen the rest of me! Thanks 🙏
Great video Dr. A. The Fit Father Project has been transformational for me. A female friend of mine just inquired about strength training for "older" women. I sent her a link to this video and suggested she take a look at the Fit Mother Project. You and your team are awesome!

Thank you Dr B
You won’t imagine, what I go through. Each time for doing just a little I feel I had carried a mountain. I am 70. I can’t go to a gym and if I don’t have any weights how can I substitute them. How do I know I am losing muscle mass. I do my exercises everyday and exercises I can do. I don’t know what more I am supposed to do. Please help!
This is so good. Thank you!
Fabulous insight into why, thank you so much, I'm 47 and wish I'd discovered this information sooner but at least it's never too late.
Awesome content 👍🏽 I’m gonna start lifting 😃
I turn 75 in February…and am in pretty good shape. My goal for the New Year is to lose 5 pounds…and build muscle and strengthen my core. I'm loving this video and the other material you've made available via YouTube videos. I used to use weights…but stopped because I have eye issues and I'm not supposed to lift heavy things. However, I'm hoping that light 2 pound weights can also be used for strength training.
I’d like to know where you obtained the information about the sirtuins please.
Great stuff Dr. 🙏🏼 Shared this with my mom
I want to lift weights but I don't want to look like a bodybuilder in the slightest. I have taken adult ballet before and loved what I saw happening to my legs. They were lean and hard but feminine. I want to look like I have a dancers body not a gym nut! I'm 5'5", 143 lbs. (not happy with that) I want to lose weight to about 125. I'm also working out on a Octane elliptical 4 days a week. I need weight training but I'm 58 and hate ab exercises for one. Worried that I may not be able to do push ups like I saw you do. HELP! I'm also a RN and understand what you were talking about. Thanks!
Thank you so much you are so encouraging!!! I am 51 and I thought it’s too late for me and I don’t know even where to star,t I have so many health problems and I have Adrenal fatigue,
