The Truth About Full Body Workouts After 40 (Should You Do It?)
If you’re over 40 and still chasing muscle growth, it might be time to rethink your full-body workouts. In this video, I break down why training every muscle three times a week can actually hold you back — and what to do instead.
I share the training plan I personally follow in my 50s: a 3-day workout split where each muscle group gets hit once every 7 days. This simple change made a massive difference in my recovery, strength, and overall muscle gains.
Topics Covered:
• Why full-body workouts stop working after 40
• The problem with training too many muscles in one session
• Why stimulation and recovery matter more with age
• The 3-day split workout plan I use for real growth
• When full-body workouts are still a good option
Watch this if you’re:
• A man over 40 or 50 trying to build muscle
• Frustrated with lack of results from full-body training
• Looking for a smarter, more sustainable workout plan
Don’t train harder — train smarter. Your body will thank you.
