Ultimate Fitness for Middle Aged Men: Combine Bodyweight and Dumbbell Exercises for Better Health and Physique

As we age, we begin to naturally lose muscle mass. Our bones become weaker and smaller. And our cardiovascular health slowly deteriorates. Men in their middle age are in a crucial position in their life: they can either continue their life of inactivity and place themselves at risk of heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, back pain, and osteoporosis – or they can do something about it.

Strength training is one of the best ways of strengthening your muscles, reducing body fat, and improving cardiovascular health. Jogging or aerobic exercise can only help you with the prevention of one or two diseases. However, weight training can have a dramatic positive effect across many areas of your physical life.

The Right Fitness Program for your Needs

So what kind of strength training program will help you get the best results and allow you to dramatically turn around your health? Well, there are certain key aspects that you should look for in a strength training program:

  • Compound Movements – Compound movements are exercises that work multiple muscle groups at once. When you activate lots of muscle mass at once, you release human growth hormone and testosterone. Both of these hormones have been linked to increased muscle mass and decrease fat.
  • Body Control – Many fitness programs out there focus on how much weight you can lift, or how big your arms look. But the true mark of good health is how well you can control your body. As you age, your joints lose their range of motion and are not even able to support their own bodyweight.
  • Cardiovascular Health – You need a program that actually works your heart. Most regular cardio programs don’t really force your heart to work harder. This is why I prefer higher intensity training as opposed to lower intensity training. Sprints and interval training are a great start.

The Benefits of a Combination Bodyweight and Dumbbell Program

I think that the best way to get started on improved health, especially for middle aged men, would be to combine bodyweight and dumbbell exercises. This is because dumbbell movements, as long they are compound exercises, are best for putting on lean muscle mass and strengthening bones.

Bodyweight training is also great for increasing lean muscle mass. However, it’s greatest benefit is body control. Basic bodyweight movements and mobility drills will allow you to move better in daily life and sports. If you’re experiencing knee pain, back pain, or hip pain, then you should try bodyweight training as a way to reduce this pain and increase your range of motion.

Finally, if you construct workouts using bodyweight and dumbbell exercises and perform them in a high intensity manner, then not only will you get a great strength and conditioning benefit, but you’ll also be making your heart and lungs work hard.

That to me, is a form of cardiovascular training.

Developing your Program

The best way to get started on a good combination bodyweight and dumbbell program is make a list of all the bodyweight and dumbbell exercises that you know how to perform, or look like they are easy to learn. You can start off with basicpushups, pullups and squats for your bodyweight exercises.

For dumbbell exercises, you can do overhead press, bent over row, and chest press. You can easily organize these movements into a superset fashion for a great, intense workout. A superset is where you alternate between two exercises with little to no rest in between each exercise.

Or, if you’re looking for a great combination bodyweight and dumbbell program, then you should check out Gladiator Body Workout. Click here for more information.

Your Full Body Bodyweight Workout Questions Answered

I just got another email this morning. I get them every day. Don’t get me wrong, I love answering emails. But lately, my responses have been more or less the same:

“Hello, the workouts in the free manual should help you with that problem. If you have any specific questions, let me know. Thanks.”

I’m not trying to be mean or anything, but lately the questions I’m getting just aren’t specific enough. I always read this long story with an ending such as…”How can I lose the fat now,” or “How can I get stronger,” or “What am I doing wrong?”

I don’t know. If you don’t provide me with a full training history of what you’ve done in the past, then there is absolutely no way I can help you. It’s like going to a doctor and saying, “Give me some medication!”

So, what I’ve decided to do is take the time out and write up answers to some typical questions I receive:

I’ve been doing “X” training program for the past month, but I have not been able to achieve my desired results. What am I doing wrong?

Nine times out of ten, all you need is a simple change. Human begins are creatures of habit. No matter how much we try, we always end up doing things we like. So, simply try something new. There are so many high intensity training methods on this site and articles that teach you how to gain muscle and lose fat with full body bodyweight workouts, that I’d be surprised if you can’t find what you’re looking for.

If you are unable to find what you are looking for, then just let me know and I’ll do the research for you to help find a solution to your problem.

Here is a list of some recent articles that may help you out:

The workouts in your free manual are too easy/hard for me, what can I do to make them harder/easier?

The easiest thing you can do is substitute the exercises. If the 13 exercises featured in the manual are not within your fitness level, then I suggest you seek out additional resources and workouts. I’ve put together a page that lists all the workouts featured on my site: List of Shah Training Bodyweight Workouts

I’m performing all your short workouts, but they are not giving me results. Do short intense workouts really work for fat loss and mass gain?

The truth is, not everything works for everyone. Your body may not be receiving enough stimulation from extremely short workouts. However, most beginners will achieve great results with my workouts. Advanced trainees, on the other hand, may need to train a little longer, or train more often.

There is also the mental aspect to it. The shorter the workout, the more intense it’s supposed to be. However, many individuals just don’t seem to be able to push themselves past a particular plateau. This is often the case with my workouts.

If you’re used to long workouts that last 45 minutes to an hour, then it’s going to be tough for you to change course and push yourself to the maximum in each workout. After that 15 or 20 minutes are up, I usually collapse in my own pile of sweat.

I’m tired.

So, it may take some time for you to transition from longer workouts to shorter workouts.

If you’re ready to incorporate bodyweight training as part of your fitness plan, then you should check out Bodyweight Exercise Revolution. Coach’s Adam Steer and Ryan Murdock show you how to use unique bodyweight movements to lose fat, build muscle, increase strength, improve athletic fitness, and enhance longevity.

5 Ways to Get Faster Results with your Dumbbell and Bodyweight Training Routines

Two of my favorite methods of training include Dumbbells and Bodyweight Exercises.

Bodyweight training is great for the same exact reason – all the exercises can be performed through a full, natural range of motion.

Now that you know why I love bodyweight and dumbbell movements, it’s time lean how to be successful with them:
