What’s the “Best” Workout After 50? Let’s Settle This Once and for All.

Episode 380

If you’re over 50 and wondering what’s the best workout for you — strength training, cardio, yoga, walking — this episode is your answer. Coach Kevin and Coach Jess cut through the noise, bust the myths, and lay out exactly what works (and what doesn’t) when it comes to building a strong, lean, capable body in the second half of life.

You’ll discover why full-body strength training is the single most effective way to burn fat, build muscle, and stay independent for life — and how to get started even if you’re brand new or intimidated by the gym.

What You’ll Learn:

The truth about the “best” workout for people over 50 (spoiler: it’s not just walking or cardio!)
Why functional strength training is essential for balance, bone density, and vitality
How to design your own 3-day-per-week program that fits your lifestyle
The biggest mistake most beginners make when starting strength training
Why women won’t get bulky from lifting weights (and what actually happens instead)
Simple, time-efficient alternatives if you can’t make it to the gym

Key Takeaways:

Muscle is the fountain of youth. The more you have, the better you age.
Full-body training > isolation moves. Think push, pull, squat, hinge, lunge, rotate, and balance.
Start where you are. Even two short workouts a week can transform your strength and confidence.
Consistency beats intensity. It’s better to go slow and steady than to burn out.
