If you’re over 40 and still think jogging, yoga, or stretching will save your health—this episode is your wake-up call.
Most people don’t end up in nursing homes because they lack flexibility. They end up there because they’re weak. If you’re not doing resistance training multiple times a week, you’re accelerating the decline of your strength, balance, bone density—and even your brain.
In this unapologetically real episode, Healthspan Coach Aaron Shaw reveals the three most powerful exercises to help you stay strong, mobile, and independent for decades. These aren’t trendy moves or fluff workouts. These are essential if you want to avoid the fall that lands you in the hospital… or the slow decline that robs you of your independence.
You’ll learn:
Why muscle loss = independence loss
How lifting weights can actually protect your brain from cognitive decline
Why every rep is a vote for independence—or against it
How to use farmer’s carries, deadlifts, and step-ups to build real-life durability.
This is the episode your future self will thank you for—or regret ignoring.
