**HOW TO LOOK LIKE A SPARTAN ADONIS AT 40+ (NO EXCUSES, JUST F***ING RESULTS)**
*By the Top Slaylebrity of Aging Like a Greek God*
Listen up, cupcake. You’re over 40. Your hairline’s retreating, your gut’s expanding, and your testosterone’s dropping faster than the value of your excuses. But guess what? **Age is a cop-out for losers.** I’ve seen 50-year-olds carve bodies that make 25-year-olds weep into their energy drinks. You want to look like a Spartan Adonis? Not a soft, pillowy *”dad bod”*? Then shut up, take notes, and execute.

### **1. CALISTHENICS: YOUR BODY IS A WEAPON (STOP BEING LAZY)**
Gym memberships? Dumbbells? Save that weak sauce for the TikTok gymfluencers. **Real warriors use their bodyweight.** Calisthenics builds functional strength, shreds fat, and keeps your joints from creaking like a rusty hinge. Here’s your no-BS routine:
– **PULL-UPS OR DEATH:** 5 sets of max reps. No kipping. Chest to the bar. Grip wider than your ego. Can’t do one? Use a resistance band. Still failing? You’re pathetic. Try again.
– **PUSH-UPS (WITH A SNARL):** 100 daily. Not the half-rep trash you see in yoga class. Chest to the floor. Explode up. Add decline push-ups or claps when it gets easy.
– **DIPS FOR DELTS OF STEEL:** 4 sets of 15. Lean forward to torch your chest. No dip bar? Use two chairs. If you fall, consider it humility training.
– **PLANK LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT:** 5 minutes total daily. Break it into 1-minute chunks if you’re a rookie. Sagging? Your core is weaker than your work ethic.
**Pro Tip:** Train 5 days a week. Rest is for people who enjoy mediocrity.

### **2. PISTOL SQUATS: LEGS LIKE TREE TRUNKS (OR GTFO)**
Your legs are withering sticks because you’ve been skipping leg day. Pistol squats—single-leg squats to the floor—will forge legs that crack walnuts. Here’s how to stop being a liability:
– **PHASE 1:** Assisted pistol squats. Grab a doorframe or pole. Lower slowly. 3 sets of 5 per leg.
– **PHASE 2:** Elevate your heel (use a book). Builds ankle mobility. 3 sets of 8.
– **PHASE 3:** Full pistol squats. 3 sets of 5-10 per leg. No momentum. Control the descent. If you faceplant, laugh it off and try again.
**Warning:** Your legs will scream. Your knees will bitch. **Ignore them.** Spartans didn’t cry about “joint pain.”

### **3. DIET: EAT LIKE A WARRIOR, NOT A STARBUCKS SLOB**
You’re not a child. Stop eating sugar-coated lies. Your diet is 80% of the battle. Here’s the meal plan (*no negotiations*):
– **PROTEIN:** 1g per pound of bodyweight. Eggs, steak, chicken, salmon. Cook it in butter or olive oil. No processed “protein bars.”
– **CARBS:** Sweet potatoes, rice, oats. **Only post-workout.** Your insulin sensitivity is trash at 40+.
– **FATS:** Avocados, nuts, grass-fed butter. Keeps testosterone from flatlining.
– **NO CHEAT MEALS FOR 90 DAYS.** You want abs? Act like it.
**Sample Day:**
– Breakfast: 5 eggs, spinach, black coffee (cream is for toddlers).
– Lunch: 8oz grilled chicken, broccoli, half an avocado.
– Dinner: Ribeye steak, asparagus, sweet potato.
– **NO SNACKING.** You’re not a grazing cow.
Keep the fat extinct no cooking with butter etc
**Hydrate or die:** 1 gallon of water daily. Add salt for electrolytes.

### **4. MINDSET: SPARTANS DON’T WHINE (THEY WIN)**
You think this is about fitness? Wrong. **This is war.** Your enemy? Weakness. Comfort. Excuses.
– **Cold showers daily.** Build mental toughness. No, it’s not “uncomfortable”—it’s training.
– **Wake up at 5 AM.** The world belongs to early risers. Snooze buttons are for peasants.
– **Delete social media.** Comparison is the thief of gains.
You’re not here to “get fit.” You’re here to dominate. To lead. To make your ancestors proud.

### **RESULTS: 30 DAYS TO ADONIS (OR STAY A LOSER)**
In 30 days, you’ll either have veins popping out of your abs or another reason to hate yourself. Your choice.
**START TODAY.** Not tomorrow. Not “after the kids’ soccer game.” Now.
Drop the fork. Do 20 push-ups. And remember: **Spartans didn’t live in comfort zones.**
