Send us a textWhat do lottery winners and failed diets have in common? They both hand you the prize before you've done the work… and they both usually end in disaster. In this episode of the Over 50 Health & Wellness Show, we're diving into why most quick fixes fail — and why you don't want a shortcut to your dream body (even if I could magically give it to you). You'll learn why true transformation only comes when you earn it — through consistent, sustainable habits that may not be sexy… but absolutely work. We're breaking down the "boring basics" — the simple stuff you need to do (and love doing!) if you want to build a lean, strong, healthy body in your 50s, 60s, and beyond. Here's what we cover:Why most lottery winners end up broke (and what that has to do with your weight loss journey)What would really happen if I gave you your dream body overnightThe hard truth about quick fixes, fad diets, and extreme plansThe 8 boring, beautiful habits that lead to long-term resultsHow to fall in love with the process, not just the outcomeYour simple challenge to start stacking wins TODAY If you're tired of losing the same 20 pounds over and over… and you're ready to finally become the kind of person who gets results and keeps them — this episode is your wake-up call. 

In this raw and real episode, I open up about what it looks like to step away—not because you're giving up, but because you're honoring what your body, mind, and spirit are telling you. I share the personal reasons behind my recent pause, how hard it was to do, and what I've learned in the process. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do for your health is to stop, reassess, and breathe. If you've ever felt like the world is demanding more than you can give, or like your body is sending signals you've been ignoring, this episode is your permission slip to listen in and lean out.

Send us a textWelcome to The Over 50 Health & Wellness Show, the number one podcast for men and women over 50 who are ready to transform their health, build strong, lean bodies, and live their best lives in the second half of life! I'm your host, Kevin English, founder of The Silver Edge, and today's episode is personal. In this special Coach's Corner edition, I'm diving deep into a condition many of us over 50 face but rarely talk about: skinny fat. You know the look—skinny arms, skinny legs, and a stubborn belly or hips. It's not just about aesthetics; this condition is a silent killer linked to chronic diseases, inflammation, and even premature death. But here's the good news: You don't have to stay stuck in the skinny fat trap. In this episode, I share:✅ My personal journey from skinny fat in my 40s to the healthiest, strongest version of myself in my 50s and 60s.✅ The dangers of skinny fat—why it's worse than obesity for your health.✅ The ultimate 3-step solution to overcome skinny fat: Eat Right, Move Right, and Recover Right.✅ Practical, science-backed tips to build muscle, improve body composition, and feel incredible.✅ Why cardio isn't the answer—and what you should focus on instead. If you've struggled with feeling soft, weak, or stuck in the “dad bod” or “grandma bod” phase, this episode is your roadmap to reclaiming your vitality, strength, and health. Resources Mentioned in This EpisodeOver 50 Fit Foundations Workout Program: https://silveredgefitness.com/coaching/Lean Body Blueprint Workout Program: https://silveredgefitness.com/coaching/Use code PODCAST20 for 20% off any of our workout programs! Stay ConnectedIf you enjoyed this episode, here are two easy ways to show your support:Share this podcast with a friend who needs to hear this message.Leave a 5-star review and subscribe on your favorite podcast platform. Let's build strong, capable, and confident bodies for the rest of our lives!
