Dan Taylor, MS, CSCS

50+ Fitness and Nutrition Expert

Are you a mature athlete or fitness-minded person who is tired of shirtless, self-professed Instagram "fitness gurus" with their algorithm-conscious vanity posts? Do you cringe at their broad declarations, lacking any substantive evidence to support their claims or any ability to consider whether you’re a runner, a bodybuilder, or a martial artist before barking out the "bro-science" they tell you to follow?

Dan's research area of interest in his master's program (exercise physiology and sports nutrition) focused on over 50 athletes. His capstone CSCS (Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist) certification combines with daily field experience training older athletes since 1998 to help them achieve their optimal conditioning. This includes teaching older athletes how to maximize productive strength while minimizing excess body fat, reduce injury risk caused by mobility limitations, overtraining, and redundancies, and eat in a way that stabilizes blood sugar while maximizing muscle synthesis and retention. His background uniquely positions him to provide you with realistic, practical, and sustainable programs to achieve and maintain peak conditioning in your 50s and well beyond.

His ongoing sources of continuing education include the work of the ISSN (premier sports nutrition research organization), the NSCA (premier athletic strength and conditioning authority), and the work of Drs. Brad Schoenfeld, Asker Jeukendrup, Bill Campbell, Mike Israetel, Layne Norton, and Peter Attia, among other notable resources.
