The Longevity Workout: Explosive Strength and Conditioning Routine

Maintaining strength and athleticism into your 30s, 40s, and beyond means doing all you can to prevent injury—and that means checking your ego at the gym door. Training for longevity isn’t the same as training for aesthetics. It’s not even close.

Loading up a bar as heavy as you can and going for broke on each set is no longer an option; working muscles you’ve long neglected is your new priority. This routine is perfect to build your future training on, as it covers all the bases for keeping you healthy and athletic.

In particular, it focuses on boosting explosive strength, improving conditioning, and fortifying the stabilizer muscles in your core and hips that protect your back and knees.
