You might think your days of building muscle are behind you once you're over 50. Sure, there are some things that you might have waved goodbye to when you hit the half-century mark—keeping up with internet slang, fashion trends, and maybe your hairline—but the ability to make gains shouldn't be one of them.

What You Need for the Max Muscle at 50 Program
You'll train for four days per week in this program. Monday is upper body training, Tuesday lower body, Thursday total-body push, Friday total-body pull. There's also an optional fifth day for arm-building supersets—but remember, you should listen to your body when you decide how much you're going to work out. You'll need a whole gym's worth of equipment for the workouts (think cable towers, adjustable benches, and rowing machines), so you'll probably need to do the workouts in a well-stocked gym.
The program runs for four weeks. After that, if you've put in the work, you should be on the road to results. Ready to take on the challenge? Get access to the plan here.
