Over the years, I’ve had the honor of helping thousands of individuals in their 50s, 60s, 70s—and even beyond—work toward their fitness goals using kettlebells.

Watching their transformation and the gains they make is one of the best parts of my job.

That said, training as we get older requires a different strategy than what we might have used in our 20s or 30s.

If you’re over 50 and interested in training with kettlebells to get stronger, leaner, and healthier, here are a few key things to keep in mind:

1 – Skip the all-out, punishing HIIT sessions.
This surprises people, but those intense, no-holds-barred workouts can actually interfere with your recovery—especially as we age. They’re often more harmful than helpful for folks 50 and up.

2 – Prioritize recovery and smart programming.
You’ve got to schedule regular rest days and ensure your workouts target all major muscle groups evenly throughout the week. This goes hand-in-hand with allowing your body time to bounce back between sessions.

3 – Mobility is non-negotiable.
Too many people in this age group follow old-school bodybuilding routines that ignore joint health and movement quality. Kettlebells are amazing for training through a full range of motion and keeping your body moving well.

If you want a step-by-step kettlebell training plan made specifically for men and women 50+, check out the Over 50 Kettlebell Revolution. You’ll learn how to train smart, move better, ease the aches and pains of aging—and potentially feel 10 or 20 years younger in the process.
