I came across a great quote recently:
“The saddest aspect of life right now is science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom.”
It’s from the late science-fiction writer Isaac Asimov’s interview with the legendary Bill Moyer in 1988.
But I thought how much more relevant this quote is today—especially for health—as the pace of technology increases.
Back when I was a low-carb zealot, I would say the same things that many of them say today:
“Carbs cause diabetes.”
“Cholesterol doesn’t cause heart disease.”
“Calories don’t matter for fat loss, only carbs.”
“Eat more fat to become a fat-burning machine.’
“Carbs raise insulin, and insulin is a fat-storing hormone.”
I could go on and on… But you get the point.
And I REALLY believed I was right.
It was only when I got fat on a low-carb diet that I began to question my beliefs.
Fast forward to now…
I don’t follow any “gurus”. I read scientific research and work with mentors who help me understand the research better. I constantly challenge what I know so I only use the best strategies and information to help my clients.
Don’t get me wrong.
I also use my 25+ years of experience too because I have issues with those folks who only use research to help their clients.
But at the end of the day, I have many body transformations under my belt that I’ve created with systems that have been time-tested and repeated with dozens of clients.
This is all to say: Be wary of who you listen to.
Many people think they know but they’ve just memorized other people’s opinions…and have become really good at repeating them.
Question who you learn from—including me!
Here is your Unstoppable After 40 Friday Digest:

2. Boost Your Lifespan With This Fitness Hack
A 2002 study found that how fit you are can be a big deal for your health.
Researchers looked at over 6,000 men who did treadmill tests and found that the better their fitness levels, the longer they lived.
In fact, for every small increase in exercise capacity, there was a 12% boost in survival. This was true for men who had heart disease as well as the ones who didn’t.
So, whatever issues you’re dealing with, better fitness is the way to a longer life.
And have you ever tested your fitness capacity? This is a non-negotiable if you’re over 40.
How do you test it? Get a VO2 max test in a lab or do the Cooper test (Google it) at home.
3. How To Sculpt Stronger Hamstrings Without Stepping Foot In A Gym
When the gym isn’t an option, squeeze in a quick session from home or your hotel room and keep those hamstrings strong.
How many sets? 2-4
How many reps?
Do as many as you can until you get close to failure.
Legendary Life Coaching Client Highlight: Kevin H.
Meet Kevin.
At 36, with a thriving career and beautiful family, he was grappling with weight issues, the dreaded afternoon slumps, and a cloud of gloom overhead. Docs suggested pills, but Kevin felt there had to be another way.
After researching online, he found the Legendary Life podcast, and decided to invest in himself.
After 4 months, Kevin:
- Lost 25lbs of fat while putting on lean muscle.
- His joints felt better and his mobility improved.
- Got a huge boost in confidence and his energy levels went through the roof.
