We often hear many reasons why people are against starting strength training as they get older. Feeling scared about getting injured, worried that they’re too unfit to start, or thinking that it’s too late for their joint function to improve.

It’s understandable to feel like we need to be more careful with our bodies as we age. But most of these concerns can be worked around.

You can adjust the exercises to suit your current ability and level. You can start with what you’re capable of. You can build up gradually and challenge yourself without pushing your body to its limit.

Don’t let these concerns stop you from getting stronger.

Strength training actually becomes more important as we get older, not for aesthetics, but to live well. Start where you are, and build a body you want to live in from there.

Going to the gym regularly is a great start for a lot of people, but if you want to make progress, there are two rules of thumb to follow:

1. Choose exercises that actually match your goal
2. Learn how to perform the exercises with proper form and technique

You can work hard three times a week and still make very little progress if your training lacks structure, or conversely if your technique isn’t quite right.

Effective training comes down to doing the right things, and doing them well.

Train smarter so your time and effort in the gym actually move you towards your goals.

Everyone has their own programme, their own space, and their own pace.

You might be working on your squats while someone a few steps away is working on something completely different.

And while everyone is doing their own thing, there’s still plenty of conversation, laughter, and familiar faces around the gym.

That’s what a typical day at Vigeo looks like. You get to focus on your own training, without feeling like you’re training alone.

A lot of us think about our muscles in terms of how they look. For some, that means training muscles like the glutes to build a bigger, stronger-looking bum. And there’s nothing wrong with that.

But as we get older, what our muscles can actually help us do becomes a lot more important than just how they look.

Your glutes play an important role in everyday movements, from getting up from a chair and bending down to pick something up, to climbing stairs and keeping yourself steady.

That’s why we want to train for more than what you see in the mirror.

Your mala can be packed with “protein”… but that doesn’t mean every ingredient is a good protein choice.

Welcome to another episode of Eat Your Poh-tein.

Mala is one of those meals where it’s easy to pick a whole bunch of things that look like protein.

Fish tofu, crab sticks, luncheon meat, and pork belly are examples of such options.

But take a closer look and you’ll find that some are highly processed, while others come with a lot more fat and calories than you might expect.

So when choosing your mala ingredients, keep a few things in mind:

1st) Go for more actual protein.

Prawns, sliced fish and tofu are generally better options than heavily processed ingredients that contain relatively little protein.

2nd) Watch the fat.

Pork belly can give you protein, but it also comes with quite a bit of fat. Leaner cuts can give you more protein without adding as many calories.

3rd) Don’t assume everything that looks like meat or seafood is the same.

Fish paste, starch, added fats and other ingredients can make up a big part of processed options like fish tofu and crab sticks.

Mala isn’t the healthiest meal, but you don’t have to give it up completely.

A few better choices can help you get more protein without piling on as much fat and calories.

*Disclaimer:* “Better” refers to the amount of protein relative to added fat and calories. It does not mean that the other ingredients are inherently “bad” or that fats and carbohydrates should be avoided.

Having someone in your corner makes training a little easier.

When you get to know the people you train with, and your coaches get to know you, you start to build a bit more familiarity, a bit more trust, and a lot more comfort in the gym.

And if things get a little tough, you’ll always have someone there to give you a hand.

A bit of muscle soreness, a lot of encouragement, and sometimes, a little extra push from your coaches :)

It’s these little moments that we end up remembering.

This is Episode 3. 💛

You can choose where you train to build muscles. BUT… you can’t choose where you lose fat.

That’s why doing more exercises for your arms won’t specifically burn the fat around your arms, just like doing more ab exercises won’t specifically burn belly fat.

So if your goal is to reduce body fat, there are a few things that matter more than trying to “burn” fat from one particular area:

1. Strength training
Strength training does burn some energy, but that is not its most important role in fat loss.

When you lose weight, your body can lose both fat and muscle. Resistance training gives your body a reason to keep the muscle it still needs. Combined with enough protein, this helps you preserve lean tissue, so more of the weight you lose is likely to come from fat.

2. Nutrition
Fat loss ultimately requires your body to use more energy than you’re taking in over time. Exercise contributes to the energy you use, but your overall food intake plays a major role in creating that calorie deficit.

3. Consistency
Your body fat won’t change dramatically from one workout to the next. The goal is to build habits you can maintain long enough for those small changes to add up.

So rather than doing endless exercises for the area you want to change, focus on the bigger picture: train regularly, eat sensibly and give the process time.

You can’t choose where the fat comes off first, but you can control the things that help you lose it.

Training can give you more than just physical benefits.

There’s something about learning how to move your body and challenging yourself that can be genuinely enjoyable.

You get to discover what you’re capable of, pick up new skills, and enjoy the feeling of doing something you couldn’t do before.

And sometimes, you just leave the gym feeling a little happier.
