Description

Most men over 50 are being lied to about what it takes to stay strong, lean, and capable.

In this episode of the Strength Guard Podcast, Sal Kassam breaks down the three most damaging myths that are keeping you weak, tired, and one step closer to decline:

  • Why being “active” isn’t enough (and why your 5,000 steps don’t count).
  • Why cardio isn’t king and how endurance training can actually accelerate ageing.
  • Why lifting heavy isn’t dangerous but staying weak is.

With stories from real clients, personal experience as a paratrooper, and nearly 20 years of coaching men over 50, Sal explains what it really takes to build strength, muscle, and resilience later in life.

Because at 50+, you’re not training for abs anymore.

You’re training for survival, legacy, and the ability to keep leading at home, in business, and in life.
