On episode 755 of the 40+ Fitness podcast, we're joined by Tyler Harnett, a former super heavyweight powerlifter, strongman, and rugby forward turned strength coach who specializes in helping people over 40 lose fat without sacrificing the strength they've worked hard to build. Tyler shares his personal journey from "Mr. Big Guy" to dropping over 80 pounds while maintaining his power, and dives into the mindset, nutrition, and training strategies crucial for making lasting changes as we age.
