YESSIR! Fitness isn't complicated, IMHO.

@@Muscleopolis Another thing is, start with calisthenics. It helps with so many issues that I can’t name them here and best part is, calisthenics is flexible. Can’t do a push up? Do wall push ups and work your way down. Can’t do back bridges? Do short bridges and work your way up. It’s literally perfect. After you built some muscle, use the machine for isolated muscle training. The reason I suggest calisthenics first is because if you lose power during the weight machines, your ass is gonna end up like a hamburger in a crusher.

@@Fugitive685 I concur; I'm 63 and suffered a heart attack in 2021; mind you, I was arguably living a healthy lifestyle already by eating a clean diet with regular exercise, and the cardiologist said: "We have no idea why this happened to you" I was stunned at how much capacity I lost. Remarkably, the cardiologist looked at me and said, "Do you work out?" I nodded my head with some disbelief because, in two short weeks, I felt like I'd aged 20 years. Then he said, "Work out as much as you want," But I couldn't work out! I was gassed! All that to prove your point..." Start with calisthenics," and I'll do you one better. Walk. That's all I could do. I started with walking and slowly got it all back like it never happened.

@@karanbhasin2283 Yep, Midjourney. I’m a 63-year-old fart that still works out and lifts weights and started doing these videos for fun

@@Muscleopolis in this fake world, I love your honesty. Keep lifting wish you a happy, healthy and peaceful life ahead!

@@niekklein8725 Certainly! I started with walking. I enjoy lifting tho. Whatever gets you moving!

Dang! Really? You think so? I thought I hit the mark pretty well. He must have lived fast and hard in his younger years 😆😂🤣

@@josephconard5210 Yes! Yes they can.

@@Sage_ping You’re correct for the most part. I use Midjouney primarily for images, chatGPT for scripting, and Elevenlabs for voice, although it's not quite that simple when crafting the final product. I’m often not getting what I envision, so there's typically a gap between my technical ability and various tools, but it's interesting and fun to learn. I'm an enthusiast at 63 who lifts and eats clean, and I have already unknowingly practiced numerous Stoic principles. Health truly is everything, and I hope to share that message here.

Still no way around “working up a sweat” in the real world 🤔

@@matthewclark7952 Yep, you're correct. I'm using Midjourney to make these.

I've tried to show a progression like that, but it hasn't worked very well. I may figure it out eventually, but it has eluded my technical ability up to this point. It's a great idea, tho, and hopefully, I can wrestle Midjourney into submission sooner rather than later.

Glad you think so!

@@joshw3010 Ha! Well? I'm 63 and doing it in the “real world” -but yes… its freaky! 🫡

I think you may be right about TRT for getting that shredded. I'm 63 and never tried it. I think doing all the fundamentals can take you almost all the way if you're very disciplined.

@@Muscleopolis his muscles actually are NOT very impressive. The massive abnormal veins make him stand out more, which is indicative of trt use. Ultimately, he's a tool

@@wgsuperstar7730 he's a “Tool”? Ha! Okay, interesting observation! I'll see if I can come up with some less “Tool-ish” looking old guys going forward 🤔

If you were informed you would understand that TRT is essential as you get older. Disease processes and aging don’t increase because of the introduction of Testosterone but they increase due to the lack of it. You have it backwards, and age by appearance is a genetic factor. I find the people most against TRT are the least informed.

@@shannonmonroe5873 Salient point.

@@mr.k5865 Check my comments elsewhere if you are willing. I've been transparent about my methods. I'm using midjourney to make these images, and getting 100% spot-on has been tricky. If I don't prompt some muscle, it looks even stranger (to me, at least). This is for motivation and entertainment, and yes, it's exaggerated, but its meant espouse an ideal. I'm on the same journey myself. I’m 63, lift 4-5 days, eat clean, and I have been unknowingly adding Stoic concepts to support my discipline for some time.

He’s a composite character but I personally have done well at 63 without any extra help. I eat clean and lift 4 days. I don’t think there’s a magic formula other than diet & exercise. It’s simple but not easy. Showing up and not quitting - is essential.

Well he's being helped by an algorithm...

What he said

I'm 63 and a lifer too. I started this channel to motivate, although it seems to be freaking guys out. I'm making these videos to advance a fitness mindset. I use Midjourney to create the images. When I try to dial them back the characters look pathetic so the super hero look tends to prevail. There are a few rare birds that my look like that but you're correct - its not real. Rock-on brother! Keep clanking those plates!

😆

🤣😆😂

Yeah! I'm using Midjourney to make these by writing in an idea and what I get back - well, you can see what I get back… I wouldn't call it “reality”.

I won’t rule it out, but, total transparency, It’s just me, myself and I. Perhaps in the future, I’ll be able to venture into different styles and maybe even tutorials. I am 63 myself and work out regularly. I would love to build a community around a lot of ideas on this channel and/or at least promote advocacy for fitness as you get older. Mind you, I'm still learning how to do a lot of things from a technical standpoint. I started less than 30 days ago, so it’s hard to say what opportunities or what sort of outcome to expect. I appreciate you asking tho! And I hope you stick around anyway🤞 Thanks

@@Muscleopolis I think the idea is great. I’m 43, work out regularly and I’m interested in this topic. Hope to see this grow and I’ll stay tuned

@@robinsonbalbuena6708 Good on you! Staying fit is paramount for any guy of any age. IMHO.

👍

Ha! You're right! The image software I use to make these vids is clearly juiced! 😆

For realz? lighten-up bro! Motivation and entertainment, eh?

He's smoking crack I think 🤔

There's nothing wrong with empting the tank and having satifaction for doing so. Correlation isn't causation. Meditate that.

@@Muscleopolis like sais try meditatibg

Alrighty
