68. Does Weightlifting Destroy Your Joints After 40?

Many people believe lifting weights after 40 is dangerous. "My knees already feel stiff." "I don't want to ruin my back." "My doctor said I have a disc bulge." But here's the reality: most people over 40 have some kind of "imperfection" on an MRI, even if they feel completely fine. In this episode we break down where the fear around weightlifting and joint damage actually comes from and why avoiding strength training might be the worst thing you can do for your long-term health. We talk about what really happens to your joints when you lift, why strength training can actually protect your spine, knees and shoulders, and what changes once you're over 40. Because the truth is simple: Your joints don't wear out because you use them. They wear out because you stop using them. 💪 Get In Touch Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/smartmovecrossfit/ [https://www.instagram.com/smartmovecrossfit/] Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/smartmovecrossfit/ [https://www.facebook.com/smartmovecrossfit/] Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@smartmovecrossfit [https://www.youtube.com/@smartmovecrossfit] Email - info@smartmovecrossfit.ro [info@smartmovecrossfit.ro] Our Hosts @sergiu.toth [https://www.instagram.com/sergiu.toth/] @bartbrysse [https://www.instagram.com/bryssebart/]

66. You're Not Bad at Running. You're Training It Wrong

You're strong. You can lift heavy, do pull-ups, and survive long metcons. But the moment there's a run in the workout… everything falls apart. In this episode we answer a common question: "I struggle with running and feel like I have no endurance. How can I improve without getting injured?" We explain why running often feels so difficult for strength-focused athletes, why most people train it the wrong way, and how to actually build endurance without destroying your calves or Achilles. We talk about the importance of Zone 2 training, building volume before intensity, and why consistency matters far more than occasional hard sessions. Because endurance isn't something you test. It's something you build.
