Meet Scott. 👋

He just started last week. In his 60s, Scott had never deadlifted with a barbell. But he didn’t see his age as a reason to avoid it—he saw it as a reason to start. 💪
Scott understands that as we age, strength training with heavy weights is essential. 🏋️‍♂️ Light weights and high reps on machines just won’t cut it if your goal is to build real strength and combat the effects of aging.

Being “fit and active” isn’t enough to:
❌ Prevent muscle loss (sarcopenia)
❌ Stop bone density decline (osteoporosis)
❌ Maintain quality of life

Without sufficient strength, aging can lead to hip replacements, knee problems, and difficulty with everyday tasks.

The barbell with proper technique is a superior way to gain strength in a short amount of time.

In this video, Scott is deadlifting 115 lbs. ⚡ In just a few months, he’ll likely be lifting over 200 lbs! Doubling his strength in a fundamental movement like the deadlift will transform his life—making it easier to:
👶 Lift his grandkids
🛒 Carry groceries
🌱 Tend to his yard

Don’t let age be an excuse to start getting stronger—it’s the reason to start. 🔥
