00:00As the years add on, putting on muscle presents a challenge.
00:04Yet there is motivation for Dexter Simon to continue on his journey to Argentina.
00:09Finding ways to maintain muscle mass will always be part of the conversation.
00:13Now it's about carrying the body through the pieces and fine-tuning with light workouts.
00:18Focus on diet, focus on sleep, focus on posing.
00:21Focus on the small things that add up.
00:24We can't stress the body now to release cortisol.
00:26Bodybuilders are prepared to use adjustments to what counts as nutrition to their benefit.
00:31It's up to the individual as to how far they want to take it, in what quantity, in what frequency.
00:37Everybody has their own opinion on it and everybody uses them differently.
00:43I feel, especially for a guy my age, testosterone replacement, TRT has a place.
00:48Because we have a declining level of testosterone from the age of 35.
00:52So I've been on TRT to ensure that I keep up the ability to maintain muscle, to maintain a low
01:00body fat percentage, to keep good libido, to keep good bone density.
01:04It's not a shortcut putting in the hours.
01:07They train at least five hours a day.
01:09It will take more than human will, nutrition and discipline to accomplish his goal.
01:13And that's where his support group comes in.
01:16He won in our eyes, 58 years, and jamming like this, and could do everything that he says, that he
01:25gives you to do.
01:27So, he's right.
01:29Nobody outworks him.
01:30He performs at every single session.
01:33And we have something that he says in the gym.
01:37The integrity is in the reps.
01:39So, you're not here to show off.
01:41You're here to perform.
01:43If it's 100 reps, we don't do 99 and a half.
01:46In the coming days, Simon will continue to fine-tune as he prepares for what could be the show of
01:51his life.
