Keep Moving, Lift Simple: The 62-Year-Old Coach’s Enduring Strength Formula

In a Men's Health interview, 62-year-old coach Michael Mason argues that lasting strength in later life comes from simple, repeatable basics—not trendy programs: squat, pick something up, press something. Stay consistent with a focus on basics, set a goal, and maintain accountability. His approach blends martial arts and skiing for resilience, values heavy lifts to challenge the CNS, and endorses creatine, short breathwork, and avoiding information overload by returning to the present and doing something today rather than waiting for the perfect plan.
