First, Be a Good Animal.
First, Be a Good Animal: The science and philosophy of aging well for adults 50+.
Strength, longevity, and the joy of moving like a good animal, from a 74-year-old trainer still in training.
This is a collection of articles written by Marty Trussell, NASM-CPT, Founder of VirtaFitness. Part science, part memoir, part philosophy. This is a blog for anyone who wants not just to slow the decline, but to keep building.
It all begins with a series called The Numbers Don’t Lie. Five of them, to be precise. Five instruments. Five readings on the panel of the life support system you have been running, without checking the gauges, for most of your adult life.

Planning your Meals for the Week
It happens to all of us. You get home from a long day at work, hungry and exhausted, and the fridge is empty. It’s too late to go back out to the grocery store and prepare a meal, so you opt for a frozen pizza or Chinese take-out. While I admit that these convenience meals are delicious, they are often full of empty calories, sodium, and saturated fat that can leave you in a “food coma”.
