General information only

John is not presenting himself as a physician, dietitian, physiotherapist or personal trainer. Nothing on this site creates a professional relationship or replaces advice, diagnosis or treatment from a qualified professional.

Exercise involves risk

Training ability, health and recovery differ from person to person. The workouts shown are examples of John’s experience, not individualized prescriptions. Speak with an appropriate healthcare or fitness professional before beginning or changing an exercise program—particularly if you have been inactive, have a medical condition, take medication, are recovering from injury or are unsure whether an activity is appropriate.

Use stable, purpose-built equipment whenever possible. Inspect equipment and resistance bands, use a safe training area and stop if you experience sharp pain, chest pain, dizziness, faintness, unusual shortness of breath or another concerning symptom.

Nutrition and personal results

Nutrition articles and recipes describe John’s personal choices and experiences. They are not recommendations for every reader. Dietary needs, allergies, medical conditions, medications and results vary. Consult a qualified professional before making a major dietary change.

Mental health

Movement may support well-being, but exercise is not a cure or replacement for mental-health care. If you are struggling, contact a qualified healthcare professional or someone you trust. If you or another person is in immediate danger, call 911 or the emergency service where you live.

Your responsibility

You are responsible for deciding whether an activity or dietary choice is suitable for you and for using the information on this site safely. Built Strong After 60 cannot guarantee a particular result.
