What does it really mean to be strong? And how do you know if you're strong enough? In this unapologetically masculine episode of The Alpha Edge Podcast, Kevin English teams up with Coach Russell to break down real, measurable strength standards every man over 50 should aim for.

We’re not talking about watered-down, “safe” numbers here. We’re talking deadlifts, squats, pull-ups, sprints - true indicators of power, capability, and usefulness.

You’ll discover:

• The real benchmarks of strength for men over 50
• Why you should never stop sprinting, jumping, or lifting heavy
• How to build towards beast-level pull-ups, dips, and deadlifts (even if you’re starting at zero)
• Why being strong isn’t just about muscle—it’s about leadership, protection, and living fully
• Practical, step-by-step advice for chasing these strength standards safely and effectively

Whether you're already in the gym or just getting started, this episode will give you the roadmap and mindset to build a body that’s not just strong - but unbreakable.

You can get stronger at any age. Weakness is optional.

Scripture Reference:

Judges 13–16 – The Story of Samson

You can be the strongest man in the room—and still fall.

Samson had supernatural strength, a God-given calling, and the potential to lead his people into victory. But he fell. And so do we.

In this Sunday edition of The Alpha Edge Podcast, we’re diving into the life of Samson - not as a cautionary tale for weak men, but as a wake-up call for strong men who are losing the war with themselves. This episode is about pride, compromise, sin, failure - and the unmatched power of redemption.

If you’ve ever felt like you’ve drifted too far… like you’ve compromised too much… like you’ve given your strength away in small, daily losses - this one’s for you.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• Why external battles are never the real fight
• How strong men drift toward destruction in small, daily compromises
• Why sin always blinds, binds, and grinds
• What real repentance and rebuilding look like
• How God can still redeem your story - even when you’ve blown it

This episode is for you if:

• You’ve drifted from who you know you were called to be
• You’ve been compromising in your marriage, health, or faith
• You feel stuck, numb, or like you’re grinding in meaningless cycles
• You’re ready to stop pretending you’ve got it all under control

What do a Roman emperor, a crippled slave, and a billionaire philosopher all have in common?

They lived like warriors - grounded, disciplined, unshakable - because they followed the same timeless code: Stoicism.

In this episode of The Alpha Edge Podcast, Kevin dives deep into the ancient philosophy built for men in the arena, not the ivory tower. You’ll get a crash course in what Stoicism really is (no, it’s not being emotionless), where it came from, and how it can radically transform your mindset, marriage, mission, and masculinity in the second half of life.

You’ll discover:

• What Stoicism really is (and what it’s not)
• The 4 core virtues every strong man must live by
• How to become emotionally dangerous in a weak world
• Why remembering your death is the key to living on purpose
• Daily Stoic habits to help you lead, love, and live with strength
• A 7-day Stoic challenge to level up your life immediately

Whether you’re battling comfort, chaos, or complacency, this episode is a call to arms - a blueprint for becoming the calm, capable, purpose-driven man your family, your community, and your legacy need.

Listen now — and start living like a warrior.
