Life is short, so I am now dedicating this channel toward inspiring people to live a better quality of life through improved fitness and travel.
A huge focus of mine is strength training, as I believe it is the most important physical activity any human can do, especially after 50.
I also believe that travel is critical for our mental health. We all need to escape our everyday lives now and then. It's a big world and there are some amazing places out there.
With that said, I have a preference for Italy and the Caribbean, in addition to the east coast here in the US. Much of my travel content will focus on these areas.

A great kung fu stance for training your legs - The Monkey Stance
To round out the training of your legs, kung fu stance work should be part of your overall program.
The Monkey Stance is one such stance that will really work your quads, as well as your hips.

Pre Italy Trip weigh in
มุมมอง 22 หลายเดือนก่อน
Ok, so I am heading to Italy today, and I am going to do a bit of an experiment while there. I went twice last year and lost weight both times. This time, I am going to keep track of everything I eat and all of my activities, including counting steps. I will also do a little bit of vlogging and blogging about the trip while there. scottallancole.com

Looking for a replacement for the barbell squat? Try the Bulgarian Split Squat
มุมมอง 462 หลายเดือนก่อน
If you are lacking equipment or hate going to a gym, you still need to train the legs. If there is one exercise I would choose to replace the squat, I would choose the Bulgarian Split Squat. It is by no means a perfect replacement, but you can certainly build strong legs with this exercise. scottallancole.com
Tips for training the squat
มุมมอง 412 หลายเดือนก่อน
I believe the squat is the best exercise you can train for strength. It involves a natural movement pattern and it trains the most muscle mass. If you are over 50, it is critical that you start doing some form of strength training, and for the vast majority of people, it is possible to squat. In this video I provide some tips on how to train the squat (low bar version). scottallancole.com

The Bare Minimum strength training workout
มุมมอง 272 หลายเดือนก่อน
Once you get into my age group, it is critical that you do some form of strength training. It's simply not enough to walk as your only form of exercise. With this in mind, I put together a workout that requires no equipment and can be completed in 15 minutes or less. It is literally the Bare Minimum strength training workout, and is designed for people who do virtually no training right now. sc...

Train the legs with the Horse Stance
มุมมอง 352 หลายเดือนก่อน
It's critical that folks my age train their legs. However, not everyone wants to go to a gym, many people don't have equipment at home, and of course, many people just don't want to do squats. The Horse Stance is a great way to train the legs if you have no equipment. Better yet, if you have dumbbells it can be a great exercise to train at home once a normal horse stance gets easy (ie, you can ...
Basic kung fu animal form
มุมมอง 142 หลายเดือนก่อน
This is a basic kung fu animal form where we simply mimic some animal movements and string them together. I pretty much look like an old dude performing this, and I definitely feel old doing these forms! However, the benefits from practicing these are clear... you get a decent workout when training them, and they are good for mobility. Hopefully, I will look better performing these as I practic...
