Most people in their 50s and 60s think the only way to lose weight is to eat less and move more. But what if that strategy is exactly what's keeping you stuck?

In this week’s Monday Mile, Coach Kevin and Coach Russell dive into the surprising science of building muscle, healing your metabolism, and why sometimes the best way to lose fat… is to eat more (not less) food.

Whether you're stuck at a plateau, living off 1,200 calories, or tired of yo-yo dieting, this episode unpacks the truth about reverse dieting, bulking, and how to strategically rebuild a healthy metabolism that actually burns fat again.

🔥 In this quick-hit episode, you’ll discover:

• Why your metabolism isn’t broken - but it is pissed off
• How muscle acts like a fat-burning engine (even while you’re sitting down)
• The critical difference between “bulking” and “just gaining weight”
• When eating more is the only smart option
• The mindset shift that helps you escape the crash-diet trap - for good

If you’re frustrated, exhausted, and feel like you’re “too young to feel this old,” this one’s for you.

Why is it that we can eat so much but still feel sluggish, depleted, and hungry? In this episode of The Over 50 Health & Wellness Show, we’re uncovering why most of us are overfed but undernourished - and what you can do about it.

I’m joined by Dr. Jeffrey Burke, a natural products expert with over four decades of experience. Together, we pull back the curtain on the modern food system, the sneaky ways processed foods are stealing our health, and why even that “organic” spinach in your cart might not be as nutritious as you think.

We’ll also talk about:

• The food industry’s dirty secret: why your cravings are being hijacked
• How to spot the difference between quality supplements and snake oil
• The shocking decline of soil health and how it’s impacting your health
• Regenerative farming: what it is and why it could change everything
• The essential supplements Dr. Burke recommends for the over-50 crowd
• How to be a smart, discerning shopper in a confusing supplement market

If you want to feel strong, energized, and confident in the second half of life - this is a can’t-miss conversation.
