Starting around age 30, growth hormone levels decline.

And that change makes building a strong, defined core that’s actually noticeable much more difficult than it was before.

This decline in somatotropin (growth hormone secreted by the pituitary gland) changes the way the body responds to food, exercise, and even just sitting around.

The decline of growth hormone levels is called somatopause.

Somatopause is the reason fat starts covering up the core. It’s also the reason that fat is so hard to take off.

And it’s also the reason that workouts that seem to work for a younger crowd don’t really work during middle age.

This 3-step core firming approach takes into account this hormonal shift. That’s why it works so well.

The only way to really get around the age-related hormonal shifts responsible for middle-age belly fat, weight gain, and changes in body composition is to exercise in a way that fights the hormonal shift.
