What does your rotten health attitude struggle with most?

Why does your body start falling apart after 50, and is there actually anything you can do about it?

Why is walking not enough?

And why was a 49-year-old man cast as a care home resident in 1985 with nothing more than a grey dye job?

Ben and Fiona get into the stuff nobody really explains about ageing–the muscle loss that starts in your 30s, the strength decline that accelerates after 50, and why most of the advice older adults receive sends them in completely the wrong direction.

They cover sarcopenia and dynapenia, lifespan vs healthspan, why bone density responds to load at any age, what's actually driving muscle loss during menopause, how much protein older adults actually need, and whether GLP-1s cause muscle loss or whether that's just the wrong question. The myths get a proper run-through too–walking is enough, lifting after 60 is dangerous, muscle loss is inevitable.

They finish with Cocoon. Because sometimes a film about pensioners jumping into a swimming pool full of alien cocoons is the most on-topic thing you can watch.

With a temper as short as her legs, Fiona joins Ben every week to forcefully "Push Your Health From The Pulls Of Life."

Expect Foul-mouthed narcissistic ramblings on fitness, nutrition, film, and life's daily rot.
