The Over 40 Alpha Podcast

Muscle talk is essential. The reason behind this is that as we get older, we start losing muscle and gaining fat. Therefore, we must train our bodies smartly to gain strength, especially after 30. In this episode, I discuss this important topic with Jay "Flex" Marks. Flex is a Certified Strength & Conditioning Coach with over 25 years of experience. He coaches men over 30 and helps them achieve & maintain their dream physiques. At the age of 47, he has successfully helped thousands of guys build the body they've always wanted, with zero cardio, fad diets, and gimmicks. Today, we'll discuss our top muscle-building workout protocols designed to help you maximize your gains and reach your muscle-building goals. Whether you're a seasoned gym-goer or just starting out, these protocols will provide you with the knowledge and guidance you need to build the muscle you want. So grab a notebook and get ready to take some notes because we're diving into the world of muscle-building and the workout protocols that will help you get there. “Lots of people don’t know the difference between exercising and training. And exercising is just random exercises, and there’s no setlist, there’s no protocol, there’s no phase that you are in.” —Jay "Flex" Marks In This Episode: Supplements are one way of building muscleFlex Marks’ backgroundConfusion and progression when trainingOutside The Box Training SystemDifference between exercising and trainingPeople not taking adviceOur favorite trainingsResources: Supplements - https://funksupplementshop.com/Join the Over 40 Alpha Brotherhood for just $1 – click here to start todayMax Muscle 90-Day Home Muscle Building Workout Program - https://maxmuscleprogram.com/max-muscle-sales-pageConnect with Jay “Flex” Marks:VIP Personalized Coaching with Coach Flex - https://freakmusclebuilding.comFreak Squat Training Program – https://www.freaksquadtraining.comConnect with Funk Roberts: Website - https://www.over40alpha.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/funkrobertsfitnessSubscribe and Listen on iTuneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-over-40-alpha-podcast/id1446632685 Listen to This Episode on Your Favourite Podcast Channelwww.over40alphapodcast.com

I know first-hand the effects of how drinking and not drinking can do to your body. In fact, I used to be a big partier in my early 40s. But I have not had a drop of alcohol in over 8 years. And that is not because of an addiction. It is because I saw what it was doing to my body, health, and testosterone levels.NOW I know first-hand how incredible it is NOT to have alcohol in my system and its effects on my health. For me, it actually started with a DRY January challenge. You may be asking: “Dry January? What the hell is that?.” Dry January started in 2013, and more than 4,300 people pledged not to drink alcohol for the month. And yes, “dry” means abstaining from alcohol for a month—no cheat days. In 2017, that number spiked to more than 5 million worldwide, and today it’s grown exponentially. Dry January participants claim that giving up drinking for one month can reverse the negative health impacts of regular drinking, like fatty liver disease and elevated blood sugar. They also champion that not drinking can improve sleep and enhance energy.In this episode, we will talk about how alcohol affects your testosterone levels and your weight loss journey. Hopefully you’ll learn a lot here. “If you drink a lot of beer, and you stop drinking that beer, I’m telling you - In 60 days, not only you are gonna feel better, but you are gonna look better and you are just gonna feel like a man.” —Funk Roberts In This Episode: New guidelines for alcohol consumption in Canada Positive effects of Dry JanuaryProblems associated with low levels of testosteroneRole of the pituitary gland in hormone release What estrogen does in your body High-levels of cortisol and drinking alcohol Consequences of drinking alcohol every dayHow to re-introduce alcohol after losing weight Resources: Join the Over 40 Alpha Brotherhood for just $1 – click here to start todayConnect with Funk Roberts: Website - https://www.over40alpha.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/funkrobertsfitnessSubscribe and Listen on iTuneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-over-40-alpha-podcast/id1446632685 Listen to This Episode on Your Favourite Podcast Channelwww.over40alphapodcast.com

When men over 40 want to change their habits, they start strong. They go to the gym and commit to losing weight. But then they end up falling off, quitting, and not getting the expected results. This happens because they make specific mistakes. I also made these mistakes while struggling to burn my belly fat. Today I will share with you the characteristics of those mistakes and how to prevent them from derailing your goals. The most important thing about your nutritional plan and exercise routine is that they must be sustainable. You want to eat the same thing now until the end of your life. Or, at least, for five years. You want to follow a simple diet. You want a nutritional lifestyle that you can implement into your life. And to achieve sustainability, balance is critical. In this episode, you will learn how to eat, exercise and sleep to support your body over 40. My recommendations will help you build muscle, have more brain power, increase your testosterone level, and feed your thyroid. This will inspire you to care for your body, kingdom, and whole self. Let's go. “You’ve got to follow a plan that’s gonna help with your testosterone, it’s gonna help bounce your hormones, it’s gonna help decrease estrogen, it’s gonna help increase your metabolism by eating foods that are gonna support your thyroid.” —Funk RobertsIn This Episode: How this podcast will help men over 40 Characteristics of the Alpha Brotherhood support group and how it can help you How to naturally increase your testosterone levelsDealing with muscle loss and focusing on building muscle What happens when you follow the wrong diet Exercises that actually work to build muscleImportance of getting enough sleepEmbracing mobility for recovery Resources: Join the Over 40 Alpha Brotherhood for just $1 – click here to start todayConnect with Funk Roberts: Website - https://www.over40alpha.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/funkrobertsfitnessSubscribe and Listen on iTuneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-over-40-alpha-podcast/id1446632685 Listen to This Episode on Your Favourite Podcast Channelwww.over40alphapodcast.com

Exercise is one of the pillars alpha men live by. It's an essential part to add to your routine, not only to look fit but also to stay healthy and maintain your energy as you age. But, we don’t follow just any exercise that we see from training videos or the workouts we used to do when we were younger. There are specific workouts designed for men over 40 that need to be followed, religiously. Problem is, how do we know what kind of exercise is safe and effective for our age? Fret not, Funk has prepped up these 10 commandments to guide you and help you from falling into the wrong routines that not only are ineffective but may also even cause you injury and serious harm. “As we get older, we're losing strength and muscles. We have to keep moving because if we stop moving, it's going to be harder to get back from injuries. What keeps the pain down is working out and mobility. —Funk RobertsIn This Episode: Funk talks about the major pains men over 40 have to deal with as they get olderThe workouts you absolutely should NOT be doing as you get olderDiscover the type of workout that allows you to lose belly and visceral fats while it builds your muscle and promotes functional strengthHow long you should be doing cardioHow to protect your body from injuries during a workoutA critical aspect that men often miss in their workoutsEquipment used for strength building BUT is extremely dangerous to men over 40Workout programs recommended for over 40 alphaSpecific things you need to honor in your workout…and MORE!Resources: Join the Over 40 Alpha Brotherhood for just $1 – click here to start todaySave 10% on all Supplements, Fitness Equipment, and Programs at Funk Supplements and Fitness Shop (Use the discount code: PODCAST10) – www.funksupplements.comConnect with Funk Roberts: Website - https://www.over40alpha.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/funkrobertsfitnessSubscribe and Listen on iTuneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-over-40-alpha-podcast/id1446632685 Listen to This Episode on Your Favourite Podcast Channelwww.over40alphapodcast.com

Let's admit it. The alpha men need help. Yes, there's the mindset, nutrition, exercise, recovery, and sleep, but sometimes, there's also the supplementation. Today, we have Dr. Stephen Anton joining us to talk about the Alpha Max Test 3D, an all-natural testosterone booster. Dr. Stephen Anton is a Professor and Chief of Clinical Research in the Department of Aging and Geriatric Research at the University of Florida. He is a well-established expert on the role that lifestyle factors have in influencing obesity, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic disease conditions. He co-authored the book, The Man Diet, a science-based guide to optimizing health and vitality for men. If you’re over 40, 50, 60, 70, or 80 and are looking for the best supplement to help complete your overall health needs, tune in to find out what his recommendation is and why it’s the best you can take for your age. “So many people are living with chronic stress that leads to elevated cortisol. When we stay in this chronic stress, that decreases the ability of the body to create testosterone and keep the testosterone levels lower than they need to be.” —Dr. Stephen AntonIn This Episode: How men's testosterone levels are different today from 2 decades agoWhat led Dr. Anton into the field of research, especially on the study of the best supplement for men over 40Why supplementation is importantWhat healthy aging means and how it impacts men’s lifespanWhat studies revealed about the effects of testosterone supplementation on men Why it’s important to address a person’s metabolic healthIdentify the connection between our body composition, metabolic health, and testosterone levelsReasons why men are living with chronic stress and the effects of chronic stress on the male hormonesImportant compounds present in the testosterone supplement, Alpha Max Test 3DThe “normal” range versus the “alpha” range of testosterone levelsResources: Join the Over 40 Alpha Brotherhood for just $1 – click here to start todayUse Podcast10 to receive 10% off your order of Alpha Max Test 3D (All Natural Testosterone Boosting Powder – Cherry Flavour) – https://funksupplementshop.com/product/alpha-max-test-3d-ultimate-testosterone-booster/Connect with Dr. Stephen Anton:Website - https://drstephenanton.com/Facebook - http://www.facebook.com/drstephenanton/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/drstephenanton/Connect with Funk Roberts: Website - https://www.over40alpha.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/funkrobertsfitnessSubscribe and Listen on iTuneshttps://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-over-40-alpha-podcast/id1446632685 Listen to This Episode on Your Favourite Podcast Channelwww.over40alphapodcast.com

As we get older, our bodies require special types of training that can address prevailing health concerns that are more evident in the 40s to 60s and above bracket. The best one that tops my list when it comes to training for men over 40 is kettlebell training.

Here’s another alpha episode that I wish to share with the brotherhood. It’s a classic story we all can relate to because, at one point in time, we’ve been through it and overcame it. Joining me is one of our brothers, Paul Proctor, who’ll be sharing an alpha success story that is close to my heart.

It’s a story of courage and strength, of starting over and coming out better, wiser, and stronger like a typical alpha should.

When we talk about men’s health, we readily conclude it’s the current state of their physical, mental, and emotional conditions. But there’s a very important aspect that is not so openly explored, which is their sexual health.

Funk is joined by another alpha in his field, Dr. Tracy Gapin, to share his expertise on how alpha males can achieve optimum health. He explains why a comprehensive approach is necessary to achieve high performance and address erectile dysfunction for the long term. “There are lots of potential causes of ED and TESTOSTERONE can play a BIG part there.

We often hear people say, “ignorance is bliss,” or “what you don’t know can’t hurt you”. But when it comes to ignorance about the role of testosterone in men, that is an entirely different story. As a matter of fact, it can be such a tragic story because, without testosterone, men can never be who they wish to become.

We’re always putting a lot of stress on the T-word in previous episodes, but we never seem to get the emphasis across - or at least, not as strong as we need to. To all the men out there, especially those who are in their 40s, 50s, and 60s, your TESTOSTERONE is KEY if you want to keep on being the ALPHA male that you are. If you want to live on with your mental, emotional, and physical health in tip-top shape, you need to keep that testosterone level from declining. To do that, you have to recognize the early signs that tell you when it’s in a normal ratio against your estrogen level or when it’s critically low. Listen in to find out what those signs are and what you can do to naturally reverse the numbers before they start becoming a threat to your manhood.“Testosterone means you are going to be the man you were put on this earth to be: to provide, to protect, to procreate.” —Funk RobertsIn This Episode: - Uncover the reason that’s keeping you from hitting your weight goals despite all the efforts you’re putting in with your workout.- Why testosterone earned a terrible reputation this 2021 and the truth that men have to pay attention to, instead.- Adverse effects of low testosterone levels that are causing men who are in their 40s, 50s, and 60s to feel helpless and less of a man.- The kind of diet and lifestyle recommended for the alpha male to naturally increase their testosterone levels.- Understand the role of aromatase in the decline of testosterone levels and how aromatase inhibitors are activated to suppress this decline. - Bonus: A phenomenal event happening on November 16 that is sure to get the alpha brotherhood reeling with excitement!Subscribe and Listen on iTuneshttps://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-over-40-alpha-podcast/id1446632685 Listen to This Episode on Your Favourite Podcast Channelwww.over40alphapodcast.comResources: - Join over 5000 men in the Over 40 Alpha Workout and Nutrition Program for just $1 and start building your foundation for amazing health - https://www.over40alpha.com/over-40-alpha-short-sales-page1600540776041#row-163 Connect with Funk Roberts: - Website - https://www.over40alpha.com - Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/funkrobertsfitness/- Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/funkrobertsfitness/- Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/c/FunkRoberts

If there’s one thing an alpha male needs to realize, it’s that you cannot pour from an empty cup. You need to have your cup overflowing before you can become the generous provider, filling your family’s and community's needs. This is why self-love is so important.

Love, when it comes from within, gives you the strength to battle through all the obstacles that are keeping you from becoming the best version of yourself.
