According to the book Exercise Physiology college-aged men carry 15% body fat, while older men carry around 25% body fat. Women are closer to 25% body fat at a younger age and move up to 35% as they reach age 50. I also have read elsewhere (can’t remember where) that men on average put on one pound of fat per year from the age of 35 to the age of 60 and that women put on less than one pound per year, but more in proportion to their overall weight.

PhenQ is a dietary supplement and it’s therefore designed to promote and encourage weight loss. Wolfson Berg Ltd makes PhenQ. The company has been in the weight loss business for over 10 years. They’re based in the US but they also have factories in the UK. They are approved by the FDA.

These are just some observations I’ve made over the past 48 years. As I approach 50, I'd like to share the best fitness tips I've learned over the years. Our knowledge in health and fitness is growing just like any other field. There are literally thousands of people adding to the “collective knowledge” of fitness on an ongoing basis. Experts who are stubborn and refuse to consider other alternatives get left in the past.
