About Steve

Steve
Southerland

Founder, Fit Life 50 Plus

Fit Life 50 Plus is a source of fitness inspiration, advice, and knowledge primarily targeted at adults over the age of 50, but the information provided here can benefit anyone at any age.

Fit Life 50 Plus's founder, Steve Southerland, knows from personal experience the challenges older adults face with staying in shape beyond the age of 50. He made fitness a part of his life since high school, but when he got into his fifties, he started noticing some undesirable changes. Less energy and motivation in the gym, decrease in muscle mass, harder to get the same effects, weight gain, and a feeling of not being physically attractive anymore. But he overcame this and was able to renew his energy, motivation, and focus in the gym to start making gains again and getting the results he wanted.

So whether you are a total beginner and want to start working out for the first time, or maybe you used to work out but have gotten out of shape over the years and want to get back to it — regardless of where you are in your fitness journey, Fit Life 50 Plus can help you set and reach your fitness goals, just like Steve did.

The Journey

How We Got Here

Fit Life 50 Plus didn't start as a business idea. It started as a personal obsession with figuring out how to stay competitive, strong, and injury-free past 50.

2012

Started Competing in OCR

Discovered obstacle course racing and began training seriously for functional strength and endurance.

2014

Pursued Trainer Education

Began formal study of exercise science and corrective movement, specializing in the physiology of aging adults.

2018

Focused on the 50+ Demographic
