How Do I Gain Muscle At 50 Years Old?

When men pass the age of about 25 or so, testosterone production begins to slow. By the age of 50 your testosterone levels are significantly lower. What we propose is creating a pro testosterone environment within your body. There are two factors that must be considered with this proposition: Diet and Exercise.

Diet

Eat a “Pro Testosterone” diet, one that consists of foods that promote testosterone production in your body. High testosterone equates to lower body fat percentages. What to eat: A modified vegetarian diet is probably the best route (NOT Vegan). A modified vegetarian diet consists of the usual vegetarian diet but also includes fish. So good protein sources (Eggs, Fish, Greek Yogurt), combined with good carbohydrate sources (Sweet Potatoes, Oatmeal, Quinoa, and Beans), and good fat sources (uncooked Olive Oil, Uncooked Coconut Oil, Avocados, Grass Fed Butters) puts your body in the optimal position for testosterone production. Include this diet with lots of good fruits and vegetables (Kale, Broccoli, Cabbage, Beets, Blueberries, Bananas, Pineapples) and you’re on the fast track to success!! Adhering to this diet is crucial, the key is Consistency and Discipline.

Exercise

As far as workouts are concerned, nearly any program can be beneficial, as long as you keep your workouts INTENSE and CHALLENGING. Intense refers to keeping your rest periods between sets short. Challenging refers to using the heaviest weight you can to properly complete all of the reps of all of the sets.

By following this regimen you should start seeing results within a couple weeks.

REMEMBER: CONSISTENCY, DISCIPLINE, INTENSE, CHALLENGING
