Kettlebell Workouts with Master Geoff Neupert

🔗 https://chasingstrength.com/which-kettlebell-workout-program-is-right-for-me/ Is there actually a best time of day to train if you want better results? Soviet Olympic lifting coaches thought so. They tracked performance, strength output, and recovery—and came to a very clear conclusion about when you should train. But here’s the problem… That “optimal” time doesn’t work for most men over 40. In this video, I break down: What the Soviets discovered about peak strength times What I’ve personally tested over 30+ years of training Why your schedule matters more than “perfect timing” How to structure your training day for consistency (not burnout) Because at this stage of life, the goal isn’t just better workouts… It’s showing up consistently enough to actually see results. ⏱️ WHAT YOU’LL LEARN The two “peak performance” windows identified by Soviet research Why mornings, lunch, and evenings all have different training advantages The biggest mistake guys over 40 make when trying to “opti...

Here’s a challenging training program for setting PRs that uses RPE. 🔗 https://go.chasingstrength.com/kettlebell-maximorum-e/ Most men over 40 don’t have a motivation problem. They have a measurement problem. They’re following percentages that don’t match the body they brought into the gym that day. And then they wonder why: Their lifts stall Their joints start barking And their progress disappears Here’s the truth: The program on paper doesn’t know how you slept. It doesn’t know your stress levels. It doesn’t know how beat up you feel. It just says: 80% 85% 90% And after 40… that stops working. Because the gap between a good day and a bad day gets wider. That’s where most guys get stuck. They keep forcing weights that don’t match reality And slowly grind themselves into plateaus or injuries This is why I use RPE. Not because it’s trendy. Because it works. RPE adjusts the load to the lifter Instead of forcing the lifter to match the load So instead of guessing… You train with the righ...

🔗 https://salutis.kartra.com/page/strong-ts If you're over 40 and your training keeps breaking down… this is why. And it’s not your motivation. You’re not inconsistent. You’re training on top of broken technique. And you don’t even see it. Because once your body gets efficient… it stops giving you feedback. So you keep pushing: Heavier weight More reps More effort Until something finally breaks. This video shows you: • Why “good form” isn’t enough after 40 • The technique illusion (and why you can’t feel it) • How injuries actually build over time • Why lighter weight + perfect reps = more strength • The rule that determines whether you keep training… or keep restarting Because this isn’t about discipline. It’s about whether your training can survive your life. Stay Strong, Geoff Neupert.

🔗 https://salutis.kartra.com/page/oWP219 Most guys over 40 blame their training when results stall. It's not your training — it's what happens after.  After just one night of poor sleep, muscle protein synthesis drops 18%. Cortisol spikes 21%. Testosterone tanks 24%. Your workouts aren't the problem. Your overnight recovery is. In this video, I break down Rule #4 for men over 40 — why 7+ hours of sleep isn't a lifestyle tip. It's the mechanism by which training actually works. Here's what's happening when you shortchange your sleep: — The Blueprints Never Get Read. Anabolic resistance kicks in. Your body can't process the signal your training sent — so it doesn't build anything. — The Demolition Crew Shows Up. Sleep deprivation doesn't just stall muscle growth. It accelerates breakdown. You're not just standing still — you're going backwards. — Testosterone Gets Mugged Every Night. After 40, your testosterone is already trending down. Po...

🔗 https://cart.chasingstrength.com/strong4 Most guys over 40 are grinding their reps into the ground — and wondering why they're not getting stronger. Here's Rule #3: Stop your set the moment your rep speed slows down. Not at failure. Not when it "gets hard." The instant the first rep slows — you rack it, park it, and walk away. Sounds soft. It's the opposite. When your rep speed drops, your fast-twitch muscle fibers — the ones responsible for strength, power, and the physique you actually want — have already hit their limit. Every rep after that? You're training your slow-twitch fibers, reinforcing poor movement patterns, and hammering your HPA axis. Over time, you're literally converting your fast-twitch fibers into slow-twitch ones. The science calls it MHC IIX downregulation. I call it getting weaker on purpose. This is what separates training by SIGNAL from training by suffering. If you're a man over 40 who's serious about building real stre...
