training and
Hello from
Legendary Fitness!
…transforming your goals into legendary results.
We receive many emails from baby boomers
about motivation. Many boomers have
more time than they did in their 20s and 30s because their families are raised,
and they are successful in their careers.
Although they have more time than ever to train, the problem that often
haunts them is the realization that they will NEVER look as good as they did in
their youth. Bodies age no matter
what we do. How in the heck can
anyone in their 40s to 60s+ keep a positive attitude in training? What’s the point when injuries are
commonplace, hormones are at new lows making fat harder to lose and muscle
harder to maintain let alone gain?

News About Us
We are inundated with emails because of the

In response to those emails, we are putting
together a series of articles to provide general ideas for beginning,
intermediate and advanced workout routines to answer your questions. Feel free to take these upcoming workout
routines to your local gym where a personal trainer can individualize our
suggestions to meet your special needs.
This is a critical step in your success as the only way to develop a
workout routine to meet your specific needs is through personal contact to
determine body type, responsiveness to training, goals, dietary needs and
habits, as well as medical restrictions.
It is our plan to set up a personal phone
consultation end of our business to be up and running by year-end. Until then, feel free to read through
our numerous and in-depth articles on Bodybuilding.com and
our expanding website, Legendaryfitness.com
where you will find most of the answers to your nutrition, cardio and
resistance training questions.
