Over 40? This Is Why You’re Not Growing

Many men believe that once they pass 40 years old, building muscle becomes extremely difficult. But the truth is not that muscle growth stops — the real problem is that most people continue training the same way they did in their twenties. After 40, recovery changes. Connective tissues recover more slowly, stress levels are higher, and poor training structure can quickly lead to plateaus, joint pain, or injuries. In this video, Dr. Nash Jocic explains the best training split for men over 40, based on more than 40 years of bodybuilding experience, 46 competitions, and coaching thousands of clients.
