About

Welcome to FitterPastForty.com. Like the name suggests, this site is dedicated to getting and staying fit and healthy well past the age of forty.

40 is a milestone age. It’s also life’s way of letting us know we’re getting older. For me personally it was a moment of reflection… literally! I was standing in front of a mirror, looking at the person staring back at me and thinking: ‘Is this me? What the hell happened!’. What had once been lean muscle was now hidden under a layer of fat.

What I saw in the mirror that day was the result of long years of sitting behind a desk at work, not being as physically active as I should be and eating what I wanted, when I wanted. I decided than and there that is was time for a change.

My goal? To look and feel better at fifty than I did at forty.

Just because we’ve hit forty doesn’t mean that it’s all downhill from here on. There are plenty of inspirational stories of men and women over forty who have completely turned their health and physiques around. These people all have one thing in common…

They all started with the firm resolution to get fit.

Then they took action.

I decided that, if they can do it… than so can I! And so can you! So, if you’re like me and you don’t like what you see when you look in the mirror, this site is for you. Resolve to get fit and join me on the path to looking great and feeling awesome! Never let your age stop you!
