5 Solid Exercises You MUST Stop Doing (men over 40)

When most people join the gym, they follow a generic program that consists of compound exercises, like the bench press, squats, and deadlifts, with some isolation exercises sprinkled in for other muscle groups.

During this initial period, most people will experience their fastest rate of muscle growth because their body is more responsive to weight training due to the novel stimulus.

Thus, it’s easy to believe that these exercises are the Holy Grail of Gains, and they will always be sufficient to maximize muscle growth.

After all, why fix something that isn’t broken, right? Well, it’s not that simple, especially as you grow older and need to consider other variables that your younger self didn’t have to.

Perhaps you could bench 3x a week when you were in your twenties, but now your shoulder doesn’t feel great if you try to bench that often.

Here’s the thing. Most men feel stiffness in their bodies as they age, particularly in certain areas like the lower back, hamstrings, and shoulders.

And most of them assume they can stretch their way out of the stiffness and tight muscles. However, stretching only provides temporary relief.

You need to address the root cause: you need to strengthen your body, improve your mobility, or change your exercise selection to improve your recovery and stay injury free.

In this video, I’m going to share with you 5 solid exercises that you might want to stop doing as you get older. Some of these may surprise you, but by the end of the video, you’ll be able to draw your own conclusions and decide what’s right for you.
