Ben Shephard: I’m Stronger at 50 Than I Was at 38
Description
Ben Shephard returns to the Men’s Health cover 13 years after his first shoot – this time at 50 – to find out if he can still match the physique he built at 38. What began as a personal “Fit at 50” challenge quickly became a deeper journey into strength, resilience and consistency.
Shephard shares how his training has evolved into a hybrid of calisthenics, cardio and functional strength – with a focus on longevity, not just looks. He opens up about bouncing back from serious injury, navigating motivation dips, and learning to train smarter to stay in the game.
He talks candidly about the role fitness plays in managing stress, sustaining energy, and showing up better at work and home. Above all, he champions consistency as the key ingredient to long-term success, admitting that he’s still learning, still adapting, and still having fun.
