The 5 Biggest Training Mistakes Men Over 40 Make (That Have Nothing to Do With Effort)
https://chasingstrength.com/ Today I want to walk you through the five biggest workout – training mistakes I see men over 40 make, mistakes most men aren’t aware they exist. And training mistakes that quietly sabotage results even when you’re doing everything “right.” If you recognize yourself in even one of these, this video will save you years of frustration.

What Should Workout Programs For Men Over 40 Look Like?
Take a look and see what fits. https://chasingstrength.com/which-kettlebell-workout-program-is-right-for-me/ One question guys want to know is how my workout programs are different from most of the other programs that men our age – the over 40 crowd – try – and fail using. And the short answer is because most programming models fail to account for real life, especially for men over 40. See, I know from first-hand experience — I had to learn the hard way myself, even though I

Why Feeling Better After Training Matters More Than Feeling Sore
Look through what’s there and see what fits. LINK: https://chasingstrength.com/which-kettlebell-workout-program-is-right-for-me/ If you judge the quality of your workouts by how sore you feel the next day, this video will probably change how you think about training. Because soreness isn’t a reliable indicator of progress — especially after 40. In fact, for a lot of men, chasing soreness is one of the main reasons training stops working. Let me explain why. Most of us were t

You’re Not Lazy - Your Workout Is the Problem
➡️ Go to ChasingStrength.com and check out the Programs page. “If you're over 40 and can’t stay consistent anymore… it’s not because you’re lazy. It’s because your life and your identity changed.” “And unless your training changes with it… consistency becomes impossible.” Let me show you why men over 40 fall off… and how to fix it for good. Most men over 40 don’t quit because they want to. They quit because they can’t match the image they have of themselves anymore. You reme

“Should I do ‘Workout X’ or ‘Program Y’...?” (The #1 Thing for 2026)
Remember, if you want to lean out – because a lot of guys do this time of year – then train for strength, use “strategic conditioning,” and you’ll get both. If you use most of the popular “fitness methods” to lean out, you’ll lose muscle and get weaker. So use this program: https://go.chasingstrength.com/burn-sa3/ And if you just want to get brutally strong and nail those ‘STRONG ENOUGH’ standards – or get close? Use this program. https://go.chasingstrength.com/kettlebell-max

Why Your Lower Back Hurts (And Why Kettlebells Might Be the Fix)
NOTE: This is a “red flag” to the FTC. This is a medical diagnosis. I’m not a doctor. I cannot diagnose nor treat pain. Furthermore, they would push back because it’s speaking in broad strokes and applying this diagnosis to all back pain. Back pain can be mechanics. I can also be a bulging disc. It can be purely muscular. It can be a tumor. See what I’m getting at here? In the health space this is the equivalent of making income claims. Many guys over 40 have lower back issue

The Biggest Workout Mistake Men Over 40 Keep Making
👉 https://chasingstrength.com/ “Most men over 40 don’t need more training time. They need the right weekly rhythm.” “Strength after 40 isn’t built by going harder — it’s built by being consistent.” “And for 80–90% of guys over 40, that sweet spot is shockingly simple: 20–30 minutes, 3 times a week.” Let me explain why — and why trying to do more usually backfires. One thing I’ve seen over and over in 30+ years of coaching: Men over 40 don’t struggle because they’re lazy. The

He Called Me Out!
I recently received a helpful email from a customer. And in it, he essentially called me out. Here’s an excerpt from the email: “To take this a step further, you could demonstrate one workout from each program on YouTube. I would LOVE to watch the expert do his thing. You could talk through what you're thinking about as you exercise. Right now, the world sees you as the guy talking behind a desk. I think the world needs to see you as the guy actually moving the bells. _______

What Is The “Strong = Fat” LIE…?

(Like all research, this may change in the coming years.) 1) Hard, fast efforts flip your fat-release switch. Short heavy / explosive sets spike catecholamines (adrenaline / noradrenaline – your “go” chemicals). Those hit receptors on fat cells and turn on hormone-sensitive lipase (HS

I owe you an apology… (Maybe?)
Level Up Your Kettlebell Game here: https://go.chasingstrength.com/kettlebell-burn/ I might have underestimated you. See, 6 years ago when I rebooted my newsletter and then started sporadically making these videos based upon conversations I was having, it appeared that most guys - maybe or even probably you - Only could “afford” 3x 20-30 minute workouts a week due to their demanding time schedules.

“Not to be a smarta$$, but…” (22 reasons why…)
https://go.chasingstrength.com/kettlebell-maximorum-e/ 22 reasons why guys our age should stay away from training to failure: 1. No strength advantage when volume is matched (failure vs. non-failure are similar). https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9068575/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26666744/ 2.
