Ripped Dad: Fit After 45
The book that laid the foundation for ScienceBod
Seven years ago, I wrote Ripped Dad to help busy adults over 40 rebuild their strength, energy, and confidence using science—not hype. It became the starting point for thousands of people who were tired of confusing advice and wanted a clear, evidence-based roadmap.
Since then, it has helped men and women finally get unstuck and create real, lasting results. No gimmicks. No impossible routines. Just practical strategies that fit your life.
