    Building Muscle Over Age 40 - Complete How-to Guide - Thomas DeLauer
    Up until now you've been told that you have to go to the doctor and get some special treatment in order to actually build muscle over the age of 40. I'm here to tell you that if you understand your body and you understand timing and you understand cellular rejuvenation properly, you don't have to do that. You can build muscle just by knowing timing and knowing the specific kinds of workouts, even if you're over 40, okay? Even if you're over 50, 60, 70. So we're going to break it all down for you. I'm going to teach you what's happening inside, unfortunately, the aging body, right? I'm also going to teach you just different little tips and tricks that you can apply to get the most out of your workouts, the most out of your nutrition, and the most out of your timing. So you're going to have a solid answer to it.
    This video is also good for people who are interested in how to build muscle over age 50 as well. The principles can be applied at any age, to be honest.
    So the Journal of Post-Acute and Long-Term Care Medicine published a study that found that as you get older, you do need to increase your protein to maintain muscle mass. In fact, they said, based on their standards, it goes from 0.8 grams per kilogram up to 1.2 grams per kilogram of body weight. Now that's based on that scale. So if we take that into consideration, we're basically looking at like a 30% increase in protein.
    www.jamda.com/article/S1525-8...
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1...
    So let's jump to autophagy for just a second, okay? So autophagy, again, is going to be the opposite of what you think. We normally think of autophagy as associated with fasting and just shrinking things down. But again, it's all about efficiency. You see, the journal Cell Metabolism published a study that found that autophagy is what allowed muscle to be spared.
    www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/1...
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1...
    So now we have to break this down with when should you train? Should you train in the morning? Should you train in the evening? Should you train fasted? What should it be? Well, there's a study that was published in the journal PLoS One, okay, and this study took a look at people that worked out in the morning and worked out in the evening.
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti...
    They found that people that worked out in the morning had significantly higher levels of norepinephrine. They also had higher levels of cortisol and higher levels of testosterone. So that tells us at first that we think we should work out in the morning. Okay, I'm all for working out in the morning, but here's what we have to remember. A lot of people say that working out in the morning is better because testosterone levels are higher. Well, I have another study that I have to reference that proves that that isn't necessarily the point.
    The Journal of Applied Physiology published a study that found that muscle protein synthesis was actually higher in women post-workout than it was in men, despite the fact that men had 45 times higher testosterone levels after the workout.
    www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2...
    So I know this was a lot, but the general point of this is 30% more protein, timing your fast how I suggested, and I know it's complex. And the other days, eat a lot more protein and add those autophagy- boosting foods. So this will help you build muscle. And I'm sorry it was long-winded, but I had to explain it. As always, make sure you're keeping it locked in here on my channel and I'll see you in the next video.

    I’m 47. 11.7% bf, 6 pack abs. To summarize: I don’t count macros, 8hr window (10am-6pm): 3 meals + 2 snacks (all include protein). Whole, non process food. Workout 8-9am: Weight room 4-5 times a week, 40 min each session, 2 days of cardio, HIIT (timed 100m, 200m, 400m, 100 burpees, burpees with a weighted vest) 2-3 days of full body stretching + 10k - 13k steps every day. I been getting stronger and more fit with age. I’m very surprised myself. 1 main advice: With each workout, each day, I make sure I progress in just 1 thing! 1 set, 1 rep, 1 sec, 1 lb, .5lb, .0001lb , no progression is too small. Basically, improve on your performance in some way with each workout and your body composition will follow. Ppl think of body composition changes before performance improvement. Over years, it adds up! Stay strong!

    When I was in my 20's I worked out in the evening and felt like I could flip a car. In my 30's I realized the crisp morning air was awesome and my runs needed to be am. Then I was in the military mid 30's...everything is early-period. In my 40's waking at 3am, my 2 mile run and work out is always in the am. I think simply as we age as men you can't help but become one with the sunrise.

    I completely agree with this approach, I have been fasting for the past few years and tried different combinations of workout timing and food intake and found that what has been said in this video to be the best. The only issues i had that i did need to elevate the quality of my food and that can get expensive. The other issue that elevating vitamin D intake without combining Vitamin K2 can cause some issues. Finally, I wasn’t able to stay active without fixing what I believe to be minerals imbalance by eating a lot of greens for potassium and taking quality magnesium supplement.

    Thank you, Thomas! I'm 66 and have lifted off and on over the years, finished marathons, triathlons, and countless 10Ks. Your various videos are helping me use keto, intermittent fasting, prolonged fasting, and strength training to turn things around. Now that I'm getting into the gym regularly and doing legit barbell squats, I feel ready to put more effective structure in place to get more out of my workouts. This particular video is a great one for me. Below are my notes taken for myself, but may help others get more out of this. THANKS!

      Our bodies require more protein as we get older. Losing muscle will usually accompany weight loss, but we do lose muscle mass as we age. This is where the protein comes in.

    As always Thomas thank you so so much for this vital info that I wanted to know. Luckily for me I have been doing most of what you have suggested and you have explained why it is working so well for me. Actually work outs in the evening work so well for me. As I do OMAD and do cycle and work out after work then eat when I get home. I was increasing the protien via sardines and was wondering if this was good or bad. Thanks for your reassurance on that point.

Nothing wrong with other "real world" priorities, but why be the critical, derisive person you are?

    There's a recent study that showed resistance trained men in their 60s having equal to or higher total testosterone levels versus sedentary men in their 20s. what's even more impressive is the free testosterone was also significantly higher in the older resistance trained group.
