I am an old retired scientist in my eighties. I had a heart attack in my youth (65 yo). 5 days in hospital with poor prognosis. I had dropped my weight from 320 pounds down to 270# then ate 12 # of salty food and drinks on Christmas Day. At 7:30 pm I was in hospital with a pulse over 300! Doc said I had about 20 minutes to live if they didn’t get the pulse to 100. I made some changes over the last 2 decades that got me down to 196# @ 6’2”. I disagree with taking TRT and eating frequently. I hunt before I eat (exercise). I try to have a 4-6 hours eating window. This has helped me get rid of the loose skin! I agree with the foods to get rid of starting with sugar. It is a toxin! My skin looks like it did in my forties. I look and feel young. When I got Covid in Jan 2020 it barely affected me because I started taking 5000 IU of vitamin D3+180 mcg of Vitamin K2 MK-7 version 3 months earlier. I have discovered many unknowns in my journey through life and am very fortunate. My goals are focused on living a healthy lifespan beyond 105 yo. I feel like I will make it!

Results came pretty quickly. My Strength increased and my Body changed & improved. I began taking many supplements including Creatine , Tibulus, and DHA, ZMA, etc. I'm 71 Now, and fell into relatively poor shape. Too much Belly fat, deteriorating Muscle Mass. But I have Arthritic conditions and Inflammation in my body's Spine and Joints and systemically in y entire body. I can't lift the amount of weight that I could say 5 or 6 years ago. What I didn't do was Drink enough Water, way too much Coffee, etc. Yes, I think this man is an inspiration, However, there is a qualifying distinct factor here !! He took Hormonal Therapies which is disguised language for STEROIDS & probably Human Growth Hormones !! And as is purported here - like any Body Building magazine will tell you, to Increase the consumption of quality Protein;.

I was an insulin dependent diabetic, had high blood pressure and took meds for tachycardia. I was told repeatedly I would be on insulin the rest of my life and could do nothing about it. Well, today at 59 I am 100lbs lighter, been off insulin for 4 years, haven’t had an A1C over 5.3 in 3 years, take no BP meds or meds for Tachycardia and I’m as fit as I was in my 20s if not more so… I have a similar look to this guy now… Rock hard 6 pack and lean with veins bulging out everywhere. I didn’t think I would make it to 60 a few years ago and I still may not but it won’t be diabetes that kills me or any of the other things that come with an unhealthy lifestyle. Don’t use your age as an excuse and don’t let others convince you that you can’t get ripped later in life. I read so many comments in fitnesses groups by people in their 20s saying u can’t gain muscle after 40. BS! Stay strong and live healthy!

Meat and dairy are not your friends.

I've started workout 6 days a week at nearby jym since 2020 when I found myself diabetes, and stopped smoking and alcohol. Also I've been eating veg like a horse taking ample protein.

Soy profesional de las ciencias del deporte y docente universitario hace 30 años, inicie algo parecido al Dr. Jeffry hace 8 años, tengo 59. Este es un claro ejemplo de que se pueden adquirir nuevos hábitos y dejar otros. Muy agradecido por dar a conocer esta historia de ejemplo y motivación para todos los adultos jóvenes y los que van entrando en los 70. Nunca es tarde para empezar, como dice el Dr. Jeffry, igual, mientras mas temprano mejor. Sumado a este valioso aporte, hoy las ciencias de la longevidad y muchos científicos apoyan lo que dice el Dr. Jeffry sobre la importancia de la proteina de calidad, los suplementos y el ejercicio de fuerza. La salud muscular es hoy mas importante que nunca en la prevención de enfermedades y en un estilo de vida sano. De nuevo gracias por esta historia, un ejemplo de admirar

I'll be 64 in a few days. My diet is a bit different from yours. I eat mostly meat, cottage cheese, berries and fruit (usually pineapple). Very occasionally, I'll eat green beans or peeled sweet potatoes. I workout for a year and now I'm doing great. I got rid of the pain in my knees and my injured shoulders. I'm in better shape than my 3 grown children, all of which are overweight (although 2 years ago the 2 boys were pretty lean). Oddly, I could always run faster than either of them.

Now, not to take anything away from this chap, as he was already driven, working out, losing weight - but the hormone replacement therapy is important. Props to this chap, he's an inspiration.

I opened You Tube for something else and I recognized Jeffry's picture. In his You Tube story he mentioned a contest that he entered years ago. I am 81 and I was in that contest with him. He was fat when he entered the contest as I was and he won, fair and square, but I also made a transition that kept me healthy through the years. I am glad to see he is still doing well.

Very inspiring! My personal motto is Fight The Evil Sarcopenia! - This is what I keep thinking to myself, and it's what had motivated me to start going to the gym on a regular basis, 12 yrs ago. So far, so good- after 12 years at this gym I am now 69 and physically stronger in every way than I was when I was in my early 20's. I'm not perfect though, I still need to get rid of some excess visceral fat. But I'm pretty sure that without the gym workouts, the evil "S" would have made me weaker than I was in my 20's- but instead, I'm considerably stronger.

Approaching 60 and aware of the AGE trying to get in and keen to keep it out, this video is timeous and encouraging. What I took away was the doctors planned approach to things, using a trainer, strict diet management, medical checkup and implementation of the necessary treatment, strict and unwavering training regime. The results are well deserved

Amazing he was able to do this! most people i know over 65 have trouble just walking. He's an inspiration to anyone wanting to change their life for the better 👍👍😃😃

Vary encouraging. I am 86 and work out with weights twice a week. Twice because my muscles need to rest [ I believe] after a pretty good work out. I do a push down x 40, then lift up x 20, then bench press x 30 [depending how I feel] , then curls x 20 [ or thirty] , hen flys x 30, then another lift up with heavier weights. then a small leg lift x 30 or forty if I feel good. This applies to al exercises. , then I do one arm lift with fairly heavy weights and finally pulling the bar towards me [ I don't know what this is called. I am really encouraged to see you video and it has given me the necessary encouragement to do more. Trouble is I am not sure whether the exercises I am doing are the correct ones. Incidently , I do these weights exercises in my shed where I have a bench and a rigged up pully system. I have to say, thank thank you for this video, it is good to see someone of my age [ a bit younger ] which shows what can be done. Thank you Dr Jeffry. Regards. Ken Bland. UK.

I totally agree with this man’s approach and lifestyle in older age, and to follow this method you have to be disciplined and very single minded, and if you have a wife or partner they have to back you, because quite a few people just close their ears when they ask you how you keep in shape and you start to tell them. Follow your own path!✊👌😎

Thanks for the inspiration by sharing with us your transformation, Doc. For most people, there's no need to exercise more than some minutes - say 10 - at a time to improve or maintain one's physique, unless one is an athlete that has to be active for longer time at a go to see results; for instance a marathon runner.

I'm 50 and I know I'm getting there. hahaha... this guy really inspired me. Going to the gym is a way of life for me. Thank you for this video I'm so motivated and learned a lot. Take good care of our health. God bless us all and stay healthy. 💪

I wondered what contest they were referring to when they said he sent in a before and after picture, which they show in this video, and then state, that to his surprise, he won. However, it is pretty clear from this video, that the before and after were separated by years, not by 12 weeks, and not by following Bill Phillips Body for Life regimen, which is 4 days/week weight training with an upper/lower body split, with 20 min. cardio on alternating days. Perhaps that's why he failed to mention Bill Phillips. Also, as a 66 yr old woman, I've gained 1 lb of muscle, doing weightsx4x/week, earing 120 gm protein/day, no hormones. In my case, hormone replacement therapy caused precancerous uterine growths which had to be surgically removed, followed by 6 months of progesterone. Taking testosterone is dangerous and not necessary.

@@musiclover-gx7le Jeffrey Life MD is the man in Body for Life. I'm looking at is photos right now. He mentions Bill's magazine in the second paragraph. I would send a photo if I could. The program is 3 day a week with weights, three days cardio. It's called a high intensity A/B/A, B/A/B split workout, Monday-upper body, Wednesday- lower, Friday- body upper, then the following week, Monday-lower body, Wednesday- upper body, Friday-lower, then repeat. I don't know who's telling the truth. I did notice there was no audio for Jeffrey Life in this video. That seemed strange. And there's no mention of testosterone use in the Body for Life book that I have. About 17 years ago, my 21 year old son and I did the 12 weeks workout, but didn't get the gains we had hoped. Jeffrey Life lost a lot of fat. But, maybe he had most of that muscle already, underneath the fat?

Straight Inspiration!!

Thank you for the video. Exercise is a life long-term project. It's early when you think it's late.

66. Wake up at 6, work out at 7 for an hour, one hour and a half. When I do shoulders I start with 3 series of 20 pull-ups broadest grip and one set shoulder grip, then the weights. In the late afternoon 3 series of correct executed pushups and AB’s or neck training. 7 on 7, 365 days a year. I also practice I.F. for many years now (16/8). I don’t drink alcohol (not a drop), don’t smoke and don’t take any medication. No processed food, no sugar, crisps, cookies, chocolates, sweets. My first meal of the day, around midday: A big bowl of oats, table spoon of sunflower seeds, hennep seed, pumpkinseed, chia seeds, a banana, blueberries, dark grapes, 2 handfuls of mixed nuts, oat milk. Short blended so I still have to chew on the nuts. When I’m going out for a walk, I still feel like 30. I lost 2 teeth in the back, the others are in perfect condition without any cavities. On Holliday I’m hated by a lot of guests around the swimming pool and thats only one of those little payoffs that I really appreciate :) And no, no TRT or steroids. I started at the age of 14 with a Bullworker, a very clever device that allowed me to train all muscle groups at home.

I first started keeping fit at 40 and am stronger than I was in my 'prime'. I am a woman who can do proper pull-ups - even with just 3 fingers. Regards Jeff, it has to be said, he is doing a lot to get fit, but he is also on hormone replacement treatment, which does really help with muscle mass and energy levels, so you can't expect these results by just training and eating right.

Such an inspiration. I am now 33 years of age and in the process of gradually eliminating all sorts of sugar intakes.

Definitely an inspiration and where I plan to be in 30 years. As long as people realise that what works for him isn't a definitive blueprint. For example, he may benefit from eating frequent meals each day. Whereas others may prefer to eat twice a day on a more restricted eating window, thereby promoting autophagy. His rational is certainly open to debate on that point. As for the training. Again, once you know what you're doing, then there are so many options; obviously taking into account potentially risky movements and adjusting accordingly. He's done a great job.

It is very true; you are never too old to get EVEN OLDER!

I started lifting weights when I was 12. Saved up enough money to buy the standard beginner 110 lb Weider cast iron set. Over the years I slowly added weights until joining the Army. I was in good shape, got me through basic training and AIT. No weights were available, but I did have a chin up bar, and lots of push ups between two foot lockers. This combined with regular PT, I was probably at the best shape of my life. After leaving the Army my weight training was sporadic. I still had my weight set, with an extra hundred pounds of weight, but not the desire. Instead I concentrated on running. When I hit 70, and retired, my attention was again on weights. By this time I have added a universal machine and a few others, but seldom used them. They were scattered about the house. Then I decided to get serious. As you enter my house, immediately on the right as you enter is a large formal dinning room. I studied that room, which we seldom used, and visualized a weight room, and that's what it became. I set up all my exercise equipment, to includes my universal machine, a treadmill, rack full of dumbbells, kettle balls, plus an assortment of weight bars, bands, you name it. I spent about a thousand dollars in additional equipment. Since it was so accessible I use it almost daily. I'm now 75, and estimate I retrieved maybe 70% of the muscle I had at my peak. My arms are now 15 inches, and my goal is 16. Doubt I will hit it, but I will keep trying. In my youth they were 17. I use less weight now, and replace the extra weight with more reps. I've also hit that stage where exercising is almost additive. This was the best move I ever made.

Nice channel! :o Videos are very informative and straight to the point.
