Are you having a hard time building (or keeping) strength and muscle?

If you're like most people over 40, you're constantly stressed... work, kids, money, relationships... your body is under constant bombardment... and your cortisol levels can become chronically elevated because of it.

See, cortisol is our #1 stresss hormone...our "fight or flight" hormone...and it basically eats your muscle for breakfast.

When you're in stress mode, your body shuts down muscle growth completely, like a giant vault door slamming shut.

That's bad enough... but then you throw high-intensity training on TOP of all that life stress... and things go from bad to worse.

A 2004 study [1] showed that a single bout of high intensity training (at 75% of 1 RM) increased cortisol levels in the subjects by 97%.

However, lower intensity training not only avoids this, it can actually REDUCE cortisol levels in your body [2], which will help you build muscle.
 
But can you actually build muscle with lower intensity training? Don't you need to lift super heavy weights and work out like an animal?

You don't need heavy weights to build muscle... when you do this:

The right kind of training not only avoids that muscle-killing cortisol spike, it also avoids the chronic joint pain and nagging injuries you can get from lifting heavy all the time.

Even better, while you're building muscle, this method also burns fat like crazy, getting you lean while you're getting jacked.
