GREYSTEEL
STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING
Barbell Training is Big Medicine!
YOU WILL GET STRONG
AND CHANGE YOUR LIFE
Aging doesn't have to mean the loss of muscle, bone, mobility and independance. At Greysteel, Dr. Jonathon Sullivan helps people in their 50s, 60s, 70s and beyond get stronger with personal, one-on-one coaching, using safe, effective exercises and programming. The results are more strength, greater mobility, more endurance, improved balance, and a better quality of life.
THE BARBELL PRESCRIPTION
AN EXERCISE MEDICINE TO FIGHT THE EFFECTS OF AGING.
As we grow older, it's harder to hang on to muscle and bone. Loss of this tissue increases frailty, insulin resistance, chronic pain, and susceptibility to injury and disease. We think that's unacceptable. A growing body of published research shows that strength training is the most important form of exercise for those in their 40s and beyond. When it comes to filling the prescription for strength, nothing comes close to barbells for safety, precise dosing, simplicity, and effectiveness across the entire range of fitness attributes.

We Train the Athlete of Aging
You Will Amaze Yourself
There's a difference between exercise and training. Exercise is something you do to get tired, sweaty, and sore today. Training is the use of a rational, long-term program to progressively increase performance, fitness, function, and body composition. Training is the difference between being merely active as you age and being an Athlete of Aging.

THE BARBELL PRESCRIPTION
The Definitive Text on Fitness Over Forty
The Barbell Prescription: Strength Training for Life After 40 directly addresses the most pervasive problem faced by aging humans: the loss of physical strength and all its associated problems – the loss of muscle mass, bone mineral loss and osteoporosis, hip fractures (a terminal event for many older people), loss of balance and coordination, diabetes, heart disease related to a sedentary lifestyle, and the loss of independence.
