Description
Men face unique physiological challenges as they age, such as increased stiffness, shoulder pain, and other joint issues. Hence, older men must maintain mobility and proper body mechanics while training to avoid injuries and ensure long-term functionality.
Fitness expert Robbie Stahl, known as "The Fitness Doctor, " joins me today to share fitness routines that prioritize functional movements and biomechanics for older men. We’ll discuss common issues like knee pain during lunges and the mental aspect of fitness.
Robbie advocates for a balanced approach to training that avoids overloading the body. He provides practical advice on adjusting the load, range of motion, and repetitions to suit individual needs and promote safe, effective workouts.
Robbie also introduces his five-day "Full Body Fix" program, a free live event designed to teach participants about their body's mechanics and provide exercises to improve mobility and reduce pain.
If you are ready to regain functionality and live pain-free, listen to the episode and sign up for all the Full Body Fix sessions to implement the lessons learned.
