 Fitness Tips for the 50+ Crowd

How many of us have seen a fight or some other competition where in the last 1 minute to 30 seconds they competitor “ gases out” ? How many us in the 50 + range just don’t have enough in the tank some days ?  As well as we age we realize time is a commodity . So we have to maximize our “crave “out time with our demanding schedules and our commitments .  Looking to stay lean, strong, and active without losing muscle as you age? Focus on functional movements that improve stability, balance, and strength—key components for longevity and vitality. Let’s put gas back in your tank! As well we have measured the caloric output between 478 to 600 calories in just 17 minutes with our mma athletes.  I guess now I have your attention.

 

Preserve Muscle, Burn Fat

As we age, maintaining muscle becomes increasingly important, not only for overall strength but also for boosting metabolism. Muscle is active tissue that burns calories even at rest, helping to maintain a healthy weight. Whether you're looking to lose weight or enhance performance, the key is preserving as much muscle as possible.

High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is an excellent choice for older adults. This form of exercise balances cardio and strength, enhances heart health, and supports joint stability. The goal? Quality over quantity! Focus on safe, controlled movements that deliver maximum results without overexerting.

20 -35 -15 Workout for Longevity

This workout format is perfect for the 50+ community, offering short bursts of activity to increase stamina, balance, and strength. Perform each movement for 20 reps, rest for 15 seconds, and repeat the circuit 1-3 times. Adjust the pace to match your fitness level!
