The Fitness Problem Isn't Your Workout—It's Your Programming

from Workouts for Older Men · host Skip La Cour

In this episode of the Workouts for Older Men Podcast, I explain why I believe the biggest challenge holding successful older men back isn't their workout routine, nutrition plan, age, or genetics.It's their mental programming.I share my own story of quitting the gym several times before finally committing at age 28 and how that change in mindset—not a new workout—led me on the path to becoming a six-time national champion drug-free bodybuilder.I also explain why most fitness experts debate details while overlooking the organizing principles that actually build muscle and lose body fat, why so many men ask the wrong questions about fitness, and why changing the way you think about training and nutrition can completely change your results.If you've accomplished a lot in your career and life but still can't seem to build the body you know you're capable of having, this episode may help you identify the one mental shift that finally helps you crack the code.#WorkoutsForOlderMen #MentalProgramming #FitnessMindset #BuildMuscleLoseFat #OlderMenFitness
