On episode 743 of the 40+ Fitness Podcast, Coach Allan asks the tough question: Are you ready to embrace the suck?

In this special solo episode, Coach Allan opens up about a challenging stretch in his own life, including the loss of his mother, managing a complicated estate, and facing his own health setback with a cancer diagnosis and major surgery.

Through his personal experiences, Coach Allan explores the crucial importance of building a strong base—physically and emotionally—to handle life's inevitable setbacks. This episode dives into the value of consistent healthy habits, doing the hard things even when you don't want to, and making choices today to set yourself up for resilience tomorrow.


Turning forty doesn't mean your best health is behind you; it often means you're just getting started. Hosted by Allan Misner, the 40+ Fitness Podcast is a candid conversation about navigating wellness as life gets more complex. This isn't about unrealistic transformations or fad diets, but sustainable practices that fit into a busy, mature life. Each week, Allan brings a focus on actionable advice for strength, mobility, nutrition, and mindset, specifically tailored for those in their forties, fifties, sixties, and well beyond. You'll hear from experts and everyday people who are redefining what fitness means at every age, blending topics from mainstream health to alternative approaches. The tone is encouraging but grounded, offering education without judgment. Tuning into this podcast feels like getting reliable, friendly guidance from someone who understands that your body's needs evolve, and your goals might shift from chasing personal records to maintaining vitality and independence. New episodes arrive every Tuesday, ready to meet you wherever you are on your journey.
