Description
Getting older doesn't mean you have to stop training hard, playing sports, or feeling like an athlete.
Mid Life Muscle & Strength is hosted by JP Wioncek and Mickey Kilmartin—two dads, former athletes, and longtime coaches talking about what it really takes to stay strong, athletic, healthy, and capable through your 30s, 40s, 50s and beyond.
We talk strength training, recovery, nutrition, longevity, CrossFit, golf, injuries, parenting, youth sports, and the lessons we've learned from years of training ourselves and coaching others.
Some episodes are just JP and Mickey. Others feature coaches, athletes, health professionals, and people with stories worth hearing.
We're not trying to train like we're 20 forever.
We're figuring out how to keep doing the things we love for as long as possible.
Stay strong. Stay athletic. Keep doing what you love.
