🎙️ Episode 8 – "Home Again: Restarting Life with Strength and Purpose"

This episode is slightly off-topic—but only slightly. Because what’s more functional than having your entire life flipped upside down by a cross-border move?

Yes, I moved back to my “old new” country. And let’s just say… if something could go wrong, it tried. From bureaucratic labyrinths to Boxes that mysteriously vanished in transit, this wasn’t exactly the smooth reboot I imagined. But hey, who needs stability when you’ve got kettlebells and stubborn optimism?

In between lifting boxes and lifting weights, I reflect on the emotional rollercoaster of starting over at midlife: new routines, old ghosts, and the challenge of staying mentally and physically strong when life hits the reset button—hard.

If you’ve ever wondered how to keep a positive mindset when the Wi-Fi doesn’t work, your back’s sore, and your new home smells like someone else’s past… this one’s for you.

Fitness isn’t just about your body—it’s about how you carry the chaos. Welcome to the most unconventional workout of all: restarting life.

Why Aging Strong Is a Mindset, Not Just Physical

In this deeply personal and thought-provoking episode, I open up about the real story behind Aging Strong—why it's more than just lifting weights or staying active. I dive into recent experiences that have shaped how I approach aging today, including some personal life shifts, unexpected challenges, and the small but powerful choices I’ve made to feel stronger—mentally and physically.

From mindset changes to fitness strategies, from rethinking daily habits to confronting tough emotional truths, I share what it really means to age better—on your own terms. Whether you're 40, 50, or just feeling the pressure of time, this episode will inspire you to see aging as a season of opportunity and reinvention.

Because aging well isn’t just about looking younger—it’s about living deeper.

🎧 Tune in to hear how I’m rewriting my own story—and maybe it’ll spark the courage to rewrite yours too.

In this episode of Aging Strong with Hugo, we explore the profound impact of something so basic, so automatic, that we rarely give it a second thought: breathing. Whether you're lifting weights, navigating stress, or simply trying to age with more intention, your breath can become your most reliable and transformative ally.

We’ll dive into:

• The science behind breath and its role in physical and mental resilience
• Breathing patterns that enhance performance and reduce fatigue
• How proper breathwork helped me during heavy macebell training and recovery
• Simple techniques you can start using today — no equipment, no excuses

This isn't just about oxygen. It's about reclaiming control, tuning into your body, and unlocking a powerful resource hiding in plain sight.
