Want to waste an hour in the gym and see zero results? Perfect—this episode is for you.

If sarcasm were a sport, this would be the Pro Bowl. Join Healthspan Coach Aaron Shaw as he breaks down the most popular (and useless) ways people burn time in the gym pretending to train. From high-rep fluff workouts to BOSU ball biceps and influencer copycat routines, this episode roasts them all—with science, sass, and just enough truth to sting.


You’ll Learn:

🔥 Why “toning” with light weights is just cardio in disguise

🔥 Why tracking nothing = gaining nothing

🔥 Why your gym session shouldn’t feel like a balance circus or a stretching seminar

🔥 And why lifting heavy isn’t dangerous—but being weak is


Reality Check:

You’re not too old. You’re just training like you’re allergic to effort. Strong people age better. Period.

Need a Plan That Works?

If you’re tired of spinning your wheels and want a no-BS plan built for your goals, age, and time constraints, reach out.

One consult. No fluff. Just results.
