MUSCLE THE NATURAL WAY There have been a few comments made here and in our other videos that wave off these ‘elders’ physicality and ability as the result of either Testosterone Replacement Therapy or Steroids. Before you let yourself off the hook and dismiss their results as only achievable with those methods, please note that the accelerated decline in natural testosterone that we see in our modern world is not normal. Steep drops in testosterone are more likely a result of lifestyle changes than ageing. One can maintain good levels of testosterone later in life by addressing their lifestyle. Here are 10 natural methods: 1. Exercise. 2. Don’t overtrain. Exercise shouldn’t make you feel broken. 3. Eat a healthy balanced diet. We all know this, but we often need a reminder just how damaging eating poorly is. 4. Reduce or eliminate sugar. Too much sugar is not beneficial for maintaining good testosterone levels. 5. Reduce stress. Stress produces cortisol which torches testosterone long term. 6. Sleep. Lack of it can cause cortisol levels to spike. 7. Too much caffeine (reduce the cups of coffee and ditch the pre-workout). Again this can spike cortisol levels. 8. Reduce or eliminate alcohol (and other recreational drugs). Too much is not helpful for maintaining good levels of testosterone. 9. Avoid estrogen-like compounds. These are found in many plastics and cosmetics. 10. Vitamins and minerals known to help are vitamin D3, fish oils and magnesium. Preferably eat foods high in this. Alternatively you can supplement them.
Could not agree more, I train with a group of age 50+ swimmers and we compete in the National Championships annually and I swim for the county in my age group. I got to the point of training five times a week in the pool… intense sessions for one hour in the morning and I felt broken in the afternoons I’ve reduced it to 3 times a week and I am much better now. I even went to my GP to have my testosterone levels tested and she told me they were higher than normal. This should give everybody inspiration, that you can train quite intensively in your later years. I’ve since taken up cycling more intensively and combine that with weight training and my swimming for an overall benefit.
I have read before about all of these 10 factors and have found it all sound advice . Number 11 on the list is discipline to execute the previous 10 . I'm 66 and in fairly good shape , but not even close to this man . He is an inspiration. Regars Mark.
Its fast twitch fibres coupled with steroids,the factors tou mention wont produce his results. Obviously the masters athletes do not get drug tested so the urge to cheat will be stronger.

Good man, Geoff. I'm 53 years-old. I've had my bloods checked for 21 years now. Trained in multiple sports for 36 years. My testosterone level is currently, 39.80 nmol/L (1147.91 ng/dl), which is considered sky high. What people don't appreciate is that my diet and lifestyle has been grade 1 since 1988. All I hear is, "you must be one something." I am, a happy healthy lifestyle. 'Manui Dat Cognitio Vires'.

I'm almost 60, heart rate is 32 bpm resting. I vary my exercise, and am reasonably lean and strong, and my reflexes are still sharp. I have been waiting for a total hip replacement last three years, so I don't go for excuses not to work around any limitations. How is this possible? A mental discipline to exercise due to a lifestyle of fitness. No alcohol. Remove or reduce stress, Embrace the cold weather season. A good diet. Find your purpose in life and beyond life. Stay creative.
@@adityashah1790 Bless you bro - It all starts with inspiration, then passion, followed by conviction. Everything is long term, continuous improvement and constant goal setting. There is no such thing as a fad, but recognition of what excellence is, and then pursuing it - just like seeking truth and peace, keep pursuing it until you have found it - and never exchange the substance for a shadow.
I'm 66 now and while I am not cut like Mr Wolcot, I am very fit with running and backcountry skiing as my two passions in life. I weigh ten pounds more than I did when I was running 400 and 800 meters on the track in high school. Naturally, I'm a lot slower now. But I can still do it. I don't compete because competition does not do it for me. I simply love to run fast so I do. I climb big mountains to ski down them and I hold my own with partners of any age. Some of the strongest people in the mountains I know are older than I am. I eat lots of vegetables and protein every day. I don't drink alcohol. I try to minimize sugar but I admit I have a sweet tooth. And I am sleeping better now than I ever have in my life. The stress of my career is behind me and I consider being healthy to be my primary job now.

If he ain't juicing, that's ASTOUNDING!!!! He needs to be studied by researchers and then promoted in PSAs for what can be accomplished. HUGE role model, again, if not juicing.
I see old men like this in Saint Lucia 🇱🇨. I met an eighty year old fisherman like this. He looks very fit but unfortunately he smokes. Bravo to Mr. Walcott.
It's understandable that you and many of us would think that because we grew up playing video games then when they turn 22 get a desk job desk and finish the day in front of the tv. I remember I had to almost jog to keep up with my 80+ year old grand father walking to the market. I was only 17 or 18 and I was in good shape bc I played sports and walked everywhere those days. So, believe me. What kills us is that we stop moving regularly.

Hi Geof I started distance running at age about 38 in the jogging boom. Reached a couple of peaks at 41 45 the odd injury and other commitments held back until I was 70 grabbed 4 or 5 parkrun age group records and a +75 one still stands. But at 72 I fancied taking up sprinting training and won a few in the midland vets league and ran my best 200 at 75 training was mainly 50 metre flat out sprints uphill on grass plus the drills and dynamic flexibility I found sprint training great fun unlike distance running. But I am crazy still playing rock music at open mics at 83. Such fun!

remarkable fitness and body---at the top 1% of even 21 year olds. Let's not kid ourselves, his muscles and low fat are genetic gifts, but he is doing the work through training and a healthy lifestyle to be a responsible custodian of those gifts.
Thanks for your comment. I guess without scientific probing we don’t know how much of Geoff’s physicality and ability is nature, and how much is nurture. But we do know some never realise their gifts, or play around enough to stumble upon them, or realise that there’s value just in the pursuit. Once lockdown’s over we hope to profile some other physically active ‘elders’ and give our ‘Mastering Youth’ series more breadth. If you know any over 60 year youngs in the UK that we should profile please let us know. Here are those we’ve documented so far th-cam.com/play/PLOEwaCXYbJQxrQme4heWP_V1Yjp1A2Z2q.html
@@fizzYcaL I'm inthe US, 59 yr old...I would check out you football pitches for fit elders. We play pickup soccer here and there are more 40's and 50's playing now than there are 20 somethings. I remember at 18 being impressed that guys were still playing into mid twenties while working. These days there are lots in their 50's. We've got one who hit 70 this year. Everyone plays to their level but some of these guys are still fast and agile beyond anything you'd expect.

Whether it's sprinting or something else get a consistent activity that you do for fitness over the years. When you have kids just drop and do pushups a few times a day, or squats. Do something every day even if it's only a minimum at times. It's a mindset and discipline. If you give yourself any out you will take it, so require something from yourself every day. Two minutes of exercise is something and better than nothing. Throw a twenty pound rock around for a few minutes. Literally pick it up, over your head and throw it for two minutes. See how you feel at the end, then maybe do another two minutes.

Bit of a wide range there. What I'll say is between 60-62 are the first signs neurotransmitters do not travel to your muscle groups as fast. That's the gradual decline there.

Very inspiring! I am a 1952 guy also and really enjoy my daily treadmill sessions the last few years. I eat a healthy diet, lost a whole bunch of weight, and I am now fully recovered from a nasty case of Covid and Long Covid in 2021. After my illness, that treadmill played a prominent role in my recovery. That is how I start every single day, and it is the best part of my day. A short swim in the pool is a good way to top things off. You got me thinking I should incorporate some weights into my program, thanks!

I used to work with some older people in a certain type of job. There was one guy in particular, an ex fireman who used to give me the chills. He was pretty huge and could literally see in the dark. We had to cover a lot of ground in a short space of time.. I would be literally trying catch my breath while trying not to fall down stairs and off ledges. I used to thank my lucky stars we were on the same side.

Boy aren’t you wrong about that, modern medicine knows nothing about health. People are going back to the old ways, not the new ways. People eating healthy was natural 100 years ago, processed food, drugs medication have severely shortened and destroyed the quality of life.
@@BlessedBeJESUSCHRIST Thanks for commenting. I hear you both. There are medical advances that are preventative in nature, like various types of screening that help people adjust their lifestyles and live longer more quality lives. But there are also lots of medical advances that can extend life but not necessarily quality. Dr Sinclair talks about both these types of medicine in the ‘Lifespan’ book. I highly recommend it. And yes to you both on nutrition. Blessings! And I really appreciate the watching, commenting and discussing! 👊

You see this is what I don’t understand how he started he track and filed career at the age of 43 and he was able to get some help. I’m 32 years trying to resume make track sport and year there’s doesn’t seem to be a coach that’s willing to help. But the coach thus far wants you be a world champion...Olympic athlete ...diamond league , basically they laughs at me so how in the hell do You find a track coach that willing to help and take you seriously?
I’m sure he’s taking gear, but don’t let that distract you from the fact that a 60 year old looks better than tons of 20 year olds that are also taking gear

3. Eat a healthy balanced diet. We all know this, but we often need a reminder just how damaging eating poorly is.

There is no such thing as a fad, but recognition of what excellence is, and then pursuing it - just like seeking truth and peace, keep pursuing it until you have found it - and never exchange the substance for a shadow.
Loving this comment! Thanks for watching! Wishing you wellness!
"And beyond life" beautiful. Wishing you the absolute best.
Respect sir! Good job.
I'm 66 now and while I am not cut like Mr Wolcot, I am very fit with running and backcountry skiing as my two passions in life. I weigh ten pounds more than I did when I was running 400 and 800 meters on the track in high school. Naturally, I'm a lot slower now. But I can still do it. I don't compete because competition does not do it for me. I simply love to run fast so I do. I climb big mountains to ski down them and I hold my own with partners of any age. Some of the strongest people in the mountains I know are older than I am. I eat lots of vegetables and protein every day. I don't drink alcohol. I try to minimize sugar but I admit I have a sweet tooth. And I am sleeping better now than I ever have in my life. The stress of my career is behind me and I consider being healthy to be my primary job now.
Inspired me and I am 28
Beautiful inspiration and motivation.

If he ain't juicing, that's ASTOUNDING!!!! He needs to be studied by researchers and then promoted in PSAs for what can be accomplished. HUGE role model, again, if not juicing.
He is probably on test hormone, because men lose natural production, but I wouldn't consider that juicing since he is just taking the natural amount.
I see old men like this in Saint Lucia 🇱🇨. I met an eighty year old fisherman like this. He looks very fit but unfortunately he smokes. Bravo to Mr. Walcott.
@@thewanderer9981 you don't have to use hormones to look like that.
@@listenup2882 You do when you are 70 yo
It's understandable that you and many of us would think that because we grew up playing video games then when they turn 22 get a desk job desk and finish the day in front of the tv. I remember I had to almost jog to keep up with my 80+ year old grand father walking to the market. I was only 17 or 18 and I was in good shape bc I played sports and walked everywhere those days. So, believe me. What kills us is that we stop moving regularly.
OMG.

Hi Geof I started distance running at age about 38 in the jogging boom. Reached a couple of peaks at 41 45 the odd injury and other commitments held back until I was 70 grabbed 4 or 5 parkrun age group records and a +75 one still stands. But at 72 I fancied taking up sprinting training and won a few in the midland vets league and ran my best 200 at 75 training was mainly 50 metre flat out sprints uphill on grass plus the drills and dynamic flexibility I found sprint training great fun unlike distance running. But I am crazy still playing rock music at open mics at 83. Such fun!
Big up Geoff, inspirational stuff! I love this content

Hard training plus TRT is a powerful combo. Add healthy diet into the mix and your age truly does just become a number.
60 here and can hold a 2:30min/km pace for 400 meters. Took two years and have no serious muscle defined body parts to speak of. 147lbs, 5'8" For me sprinting is all about the mind.
Well done dont stop 😊

Very respectable marks. You ran the same exact time in the 400m at age 60 (56.78) as I did at age 61 at USATF Nationals in '21. I finished the season with a 56.23 in my last meet. You should race more. Only 6 races in the last decade.

Sounds like a challenge...???
remarkable fitness and body---at the top 1% of even 21 year olds. Let's not kid ourselves, his muscles and low fat are genetic gifts, but he is doing the work through training and a healthy lifestyle to be a responsible custodian of those gifts.
Thanks for your comment. I guess without scientific probing we don’t know how much of Geoff’s physicality and ability is nature, and how much is nurture. But we do know some never realise their gifts, or play around enough to stumble upon them, or realise that there’s value just in the pursuit. Once lockdown’s over we hope to profile some other physically active ‘elders’ and give our ‘Mastering Youth’ series more breadth. If you know any over 60 year youngs in the UK that we should profile please let us know. Here are those we’ve documented so far th-cam.com/play/PLOEwaCXYbJQxrQme4heWP_V1Yjp1A2Z2q.html
@@fizzYcaL I'm inthe US, 59 yr old...I would check out you football pitches for fit elders.
We play pickup soccer here and there are more 40's and 50's playing now than there are 20 somethings.
I remember at 18 being impressed that guys were still playing into mid twenties while working. These days there are lots in their 50's. We've got one who hit 70 this year. Everyone plays to their level but some of these guys are still fast and agile beyond anything you'd expect.
September 2024 now he's 71 years old 💪🏽
This is how people are supposed to look in their 60's, not obese and riding around in powered scooters.

Whether it's sprinting or something else get a consistent activity that you do for fitness over the years.
When you have kids just drop and do pushups a few times a day, or squats. Do something every day even if it's only a minimum at times. It's a mindset and discipline. If you give yourself any out you will take it, so require something from yourself every day. Two minutes of exercise is something and better than nothing. Throw a twenty pound rock around for a few minutes. Literally pick it up, over your head and throw it for two minutes. See how you feel at the end, then maybe do another two minutes.
I'm with you

At 1.44, that is others opinion. To hell with what others say.
at around age 60-70 there are more dramatic differences between people's fitness and health levels than at any other age.
Bit of a wide range there. What I'll say is between 60-62 are the first signs neurotransmitters do not travel to your muscle groups as fast. That's the gradual decline there.

Who doesn’t want to be a beast at 60? And yes, I know it’s possible!
If that’s the Body I can Achieve at 66 then I will Maintain a Sprinting Program For the rest of my Life.
He didnt get that from sprinting obviously,its strength training,diet,genes and steroids.
Very inspiring! I am a 1952 guy also and really enjoy my daily treadmill sessions the last few years. I eat a healthy diet, lost a whole bunch of weight, and I am now fully recovered from a nasty case of Covid and Long Covid in 2021. After my illness, that treadmill played a prominent role in my recovery. That is how I start every single day, and it is the best part of my day. A short swim in the pool is a good way to top things off. You got me thinking I should incorporate some weights into my program, thanks!

I used to work with some older people in a certain type of job.
There was one guy in particular, an ex fireman who used to give me the chills. He was pretty huge and could literally see in the dark. We had to cover a lot of ground in a short space of time.. I would be literally trying catch my breath while trying not to fall down stairs and off ledges.
I used to thank my lucky stars we were on the same side.
😊 some of these “old guys” didn’t get the memo (or got a very different one)!

Boy aren’t you wrong about that, modern medicine knows nothing about health. People are going back to the old ways, not the new ways. People eating healthy was natural 100 years ago, processed food, drugs medication have severely shortened and destroyed the quality of life.
@@BlessedBeJESUSCHRIST Thanks for commenting. I hear you both. There are medical advances that are preventative in nature, like various types of screening that help people adjust their lifestyles and live longer more quality lives. But there are also lots of medical advances that can extend life but not necessarily quality. Dr Sinclair talks about both these types of medicine in the ‘Lifespan’ book. I highly recommend it. And yes to you both on nutrition. Blessings!

You see this is what I don’t understand how he started he track and filed career at the age of 43 and he was able to get some help. I’m 32 years trying to resume make track sport and year there’s doesn’t seem to be a coach that’s willing to help. But the coach thus far wants you be a world champion...Olympic athlete ...diamond league , basically they laughs at me so how in the hell do
You find a track coach that willing to help and take you seriously?
Would have to have a lot of money to hire the best.
TH-cam and yourself.
TRT ?
That’s exactly what I was wondering. Can this be done naturally?
Undoubtedly. Kudos to him but there's no way a man in his 60s builds or maintains that much muscle without it.

@@dreamer13halloffame44 evidence is inconclusive at best.
Nothing wrong as long as its under medical supervision.
I’m sure he’s taking gear, but don’t let that distract you from the fact that a 60 year old looks better than tons of 20 year olds that are also taking gear
It’s possible to do without at his age (see our pinned comment).
