I was 525 pounds when I hit 30. Took a while to figure out what I was doing (went down to 350, then back up to 475), but now at 37 I got it figured out. I lost 3 pounds in the last week and a half, weighed in at 305 this morning, about to go under 300 pounds for the first time in something like 18 years. Goal is to be below 260 next summer, which would be 20 pounds lighter than I graduated at my 20 year reunion. I also helped my dad drop about 80 pounds in his mid 60's.

So for a while I just backed down the frequency but still kept going at things heavy and more safely.... though I'm at the point now where chasing those new PR's number wise isn't my motivating factor anymore, I'd like to get better at moving my body around again like back in my military and calisthenics days.... I might be a lot stronger but I also like being nimble and not always having something hurt/ache. In other words, I might dial things back on the strength aspects a bit to focus on overall health and not just abuse my body for numbers!

Yeah the torrent of complaints from 30 year olds on any reddit post mentioning getting older always made me cringe. People are saying that they're unable to move in any decent way and they're just like "oh well, I'm getting older, nothing I can do about this" while also shooting down any attempts to nudge them in the direction of exercising and taking care of themselves. Infuriating.

People don't talk enough how being sedentary and overweight affects your libido, motivation, strength all the big factors that get people to take TRT in the first place. I'm not against someone taking TRT if they truly need it, but a lot of times they just need to get better habits and their testosterone levels will increase, and so will all the "symptoms of low T" get better.

Aging is inevitable. Getting old is a choice.

Starting out in gyms 15+ years ago, the biggest and strongest guys were well into their 40s. I never thought for a second that hitting 30 could be the beginning of the end until this idea started to get floated around social media and KZread, usually by people with a product to sell. Also, if one aspires to be too old, too injured, past their peak, whatever else, it will be a self fulfilling prophecy.

It's probably quite informative to look at the champions of the Ancient Olympics. The Greeks had 700 years of sports science (now lost), and a culture which pushed a significant percentage of their citizen body into athletic training (for both war and sport), with a lot of importance and glory placed on athletes performing well for their city states. I.e. the talent pool, whilst obviously not as large as what we see today, was pretty considerable, & athletic training was presumably pretty decent. And yet, it's clear from the number of Olympiads attended / won by some Ancient athletes that they were in their mid 30s and still winning. Leonidas of Rhodes, for example, won all three 'sprint' events (one was more like an 800m race in armour) at 4 games in a row, and was 36 or 37 during his last games. So, at the very least, it suggests that for those particular athletes, physiological athletic decline, even in speed and power, wasn't significant by the latter half of their mid 30s.

I spent my twenties out of shape, pushing 300lbs and generally depressed. At 33 I am stronger, faster, and almost 70lbs lighter. Thanks for the quality content, dude; it's great being able to learn from someone around my same age.

The one thing I'd say is as you get older you don't get away with the bad habits you used to. In your 20s you can drink more alcohol and sleep less yet and as you get older it's hard to get away with that stuff. BUT this isn't a bad thing. It forces you to make better choices.

Of course there are confounding factors here, like the fact that we all have more responsibilities and can't afford to drink through an entire weekend and then sleep it off all of Sunday, but I think few if any of those factors are physiological.

In my 20's I was addicted to games and drinking, my health sucked, I was depressed, bad sleeping schedule. When I was 30 started to turned my life around, got married, started exercise, started BJJ, eating better and now only drinking very occasionally. My sex drive is much better, my mind is clear, my mood is stable, depression gone and I sleep like a baby! I wish I started earlier, but it is what it is, I'm 35 now and my life started in the 30's 🙂

So we are going to let 4:10 go by without a single word....HAHAHA

This should be the predominant message being shared on KZread Fitness and just general life. Too many people (including myself up until recently) believe that it's actually normal and part of life to gain weight as you age, along with developing other issues that could be completely avoided with some basic exercise and nutrition. Thank you Alan for sharing this.

Yeah, I'm 35, I stopped lifting seriously in my mid 20's and my body def fell apart. I lost a lot of strength and stamina and was skinny af (6'1 168lbs). Now I'm back to lifting again and I easily sit at a lean 195-200 lbs. Mental health improved, daily life improved and I even have more pep in my step too! How did I do it? I just trained, ate right and prioritized sleep over late nights. Have I thought about using gear or TRT? Yeah, sure - it is easy to consider it since it is so common place now. But really, I have a lot of room to improve as I am now, and I'm content chipping away at things, there is no rush.

People in their 20s considering TRT because of "low energy and bad mood" is one of the saddest thing in our world

Awesome video - and I can confirm: I started strength training at age 50 and over the last 9 years I've been able to keep getting stronger. (Okay, it helps that I wasn't ever all that strong to begin with - the bar is low). The key is starting somewhere and seeking improvement for as long as you can. When the improvements slow down, pick a different goal post because you get to decide on what that is!

I’m 48, my test levels seem to go up every year. They were in the 600s this year. I do have to eat less because it’s easier to gain weight, but I have no issue maintaining or gaining muscle. I feel no different than I did when I was 22. I asked my doctor how the test numbers were staying so high when I know so many guys on TRt at my age. He said as long as you keep weightlifting, your body will produce the test it needs to keep up. He basically confirmed what Alan said in this video

You put out some of the best no BS, honest content. So many people are misinformed because of all the horrible advice dished out by the "influencers".

Get your T levels checked guys. I trained and was strong, competed in powerlifting all through my 30s until about 37. Then I had a rush of bad symptoms, was having a really hard time recovering from workouts and I was constantly tired and lacked all kinds of drive for about a year. Lucky for me I saw a doctor that understood a few things about hormones, and I got all of them checked. He was quite shocked with the results, I had the hormone panel of an unhealthy 70 year old man. Not just testosterone but others relating to a possible tumor in my pituitary gland. I am now on trt and it has completely turned my life around. Don't neglect your health guys. We live in a day and age where we can be optimised into old age. Low T and other problems will happen to all us men eventually. And we have the power to take our health into our own hands.

Great video. I’ve learned that there are two types of aging, primary and secondary. Primary aging is the part we can’t control, normal wear and tear if you will. But secondary aging if those habits that we do have control over. I’m literally one month shy of my 30th birthday, and this video made me think even more about how I need to take care of myself. I’ve haven’t drank in 6 months and I get to the gym 3-4 times a week but nutrition is where I need to improve.

I just wanted to share that I've always enjoyed Alan's brand of humor. A nice mix of smart and low brow jokes woven into every kind of conversation. That liquid chalk shaking had me going lol.

This video is 100% right. I'm 51 and still pushing the weights 3 times a week. Sprinting and running 3 times a week. Jumping 6 times a week. Kettlebells 3 times a week. You are only going to be as fit as you want to be. Age isn't the problem, it is the individual desire to do something that is the problem. I may not be as strong as I was when I was 21, but I am in better overall shape in terms of lean muscle mass, cardiovascular endurance, and mobility. The biggest challenge with age is recovery. Listening to your body and adjusting to recover is the name of the game. NOT LOW T! Thanks Alan for cutting through the BS once again and giving everyone a dose of reality.

Spot *ON,* Alan. More people really need to hear this 🤘🏻.

You're a natty legend, Alan. Thanks for the motivation. (Loved the Will Tennyson bottle move.)

I’m not Alan’s target audience, being a 67 year old woman. But he was one of my inspirations for taking up powerlifting at age 66. Despite decades of exercise aimed at women (yoga, Pilates, light dumbbells) I was frail, scrawny, and weak AF. So I started working with an experienced powerlifting coach in June 2022. I had never touched a barbell previously, and I was absolutely horrified at my lack of strength after literally decades of exercise that was ineffective at building real strength. But what that meant was that there was nowhere for me to go but up. I train with my coach 3x a week doing the barbell lifts and accessories . I do mobility stuff on my own. I admittedly have utterly crap genetics for powerlifting as a competitive sport, but that’s not why I’m doing this. It’s for functional strength. This is THE best thing I have ever done from a fitness and health perspective. At age 67 I am stronger than I have ever been in my life. This really works, folks. It’s very true that it is never too late to build strength, even for a old lady. Many thanks to Alan for his informative and often very amusing videos.

I’m a 37 year old US Marine and I’m in the best physical and emotional condition of my life because I’m dedicated to living a healthy lifestyle. I would say the majority of ailments in this country like obesity, heart disease, and diabetes are mostly prevented by living a generally healthy lifestyle. The same holds true for slowing down the aging process. Keep sharing the great content!

So I literally just turned 30 yesterday, and I truly needed this, thank you

I really needed this, I'm going to be 30 this year and its been a rough ride for a lot of reasons but I've improved a lot where I used to be and while I do worry about being 30, it's more psychological then anything actually bad. I still sometimes act goofy and crack jokes and laugh at stupid stuff like I did in my early 20s but I also try and get ahead and take responsibility for myself and don't get too hung up when things don't go my way. Sort of trying to be stoic, can't say I am where I want to be but I do feel better then when I did years ago, stronger and more focused too.

Honestly, 30 isn't scary. Once you hit it you feel younger and renewed, it's just a mental block like oh no... 30 sounds old. It is old if you let it be.

As someone who’s currently in their mid twenties definitely gonna keep this in mind

Thanks for this video, brother.

I'm 40 and I'm probably in the best shape of my life thanks to 30 me who started weight lifting!

I'm 32 and I feel better than I ever did at 25. The reason? I'm out of a parasitic relationship, I'm eating better, doing both strength training and cardio, making sleep a priority and just trying to take care of myself. Heck, I'm about 70ish pounds lighter than I was at 25, as well. This man speaks the truth. It's never too late to make a change.

Good message! I’m 41, and I have old injuries that slow me down at times, and when I get hurt it takes longer to heal, but I really feel that I can still be in better shape in my 40s than I was in my 30s. I get really tired of people my age complaining about their “old bodies” when in reality they are suffering from lack of exercise and eating foolishly.

I needed to hear this today. I've been in a slow decline since I hit 30 and have been finding all kinds of excuses not to get after it. Thank you, good sir.

THANK YOU ALAN! YOU'RE THE MAN!

Truth. Thank you. 45 year old dad. Been working on it (gym, diet, tennis, rest) since COVID broke out. Feels good.

Love the message!

Great content Alan as always❤

Speaking facts on facts , respect to you sir
