Cycle syncing, cortisol detoxes, two-hour gym sessions: you don't need any of it. Herman and Brooks kick off a three-part series on the only things you actually need to get fit after 40, starting with the shift that makes everything else work.

They get into why the approach that worked in your 30s quit on you, the 15-minute full-body workout that still builds muscle, how few hard sets a week you actually need, the study where 90-year-olds built muscle like 30-year-olds, and the protein target most programs set way too high.
