FAQs: Training, Nutrition & Health for Men Over 40

Do I need to train differently after 40?

Yes — most men over 40 benefit from shifting to more intentional strength training. Prioritising proper form, progressive overload, and joint-friendly exercise selection helps build muscle, protect mobility, and reduce injury risk as the body becomes less resilient with age.

Is it too late to start lifting weights in my 40s, 50s or 60s?

Absolutely not; research confirms that muscle retains the ability to grow (hypertrophy) at any age, meaning your body is still highly responsive to strength training. Starting now is the most effective intervention you can make to improve functional strength and long-term health independence.

What if I don’t have time to exercise regularly?

You don’t need long workouts to make progress. Efficient strength sessions — even 2–3 per week focusing on compound movements — are highly effective for maintaining muscle and keeping metabolism high. Consistency beats intensity every time.

How should men over 40 eat to support fitness?

Protein becomes more important as the body becomes less efficient at using it (anabolic resistance). Increasing protein intake, along with micronutrients like magnesium, calcium, and vitamin D, supports recovery, muscle function, bone health, and healthy body composition.

How can men over 40 avoid injuries when training?

Proper technique and controlled movement are essential. A structured approach that emphasises stability, mobility, and gradual progression helps you build meaningful strength while avoiding the injuries that often derail progress.
