RFK JR’s Workout, Diet and TRT Regimen Revealed (70 YEARS OLD!)

Robert F Kennedy Jr, better known as RFK Jr is widely known as the fittest presidential candidate to ever run for office. Some have even called him jacked Kennedy. Today, we look at RFK Jr’s workout and diet plan to see how he trains and what he eats to get in the shape he as at the age of 70 years old.

Most of the attention he gets is focused on his workout regimen and whether or not the TRT anti-aging protocol he follows is more responsible for his body than the weights he lifts and exercises he performs. When it comes to his workouts, RFK states that he trains with weights 4 times per week. The first day is back, followed by chest and legs, with the last day being a miscellaneous workout that includes shoulders, biceps and triceps.

His workouts are intense and brief - lasting no more than 35 minutes each.

He has a history of rotator cuff issues that make some of the exercises he does more challenging, like the bench press. But he trades in some of the workout length that tends to be bothersome to those of an older age or who have specific orthopedic issues that can become inflamed with high volume training, for higher workout intensity and effort.

RFK JR’s workout routine calls for him to train in the 10-12 rep range with most weighted exercises where he takes the first set to absolute failure and then the last of his 4 sets to and through failure using a strip set or drop set technique. These are particularly good protocols to use for men over 40 who train because it allows you to focus on using heavier weights for the front end of the drop set, allowing you to maximize strength while letting you drop the weight in half and use a more managable weight when already fatigued to pursue hypetrophy with more focused intentional mind muscle contractions.

The other workout technique that RFK Jr uses is giant sets. Here he will pick up to 4 different exercises for a muscle group and perform them back to back to back to back, ensuring that the exercises he picks allow him to keep performing reps even when the muscle is fatigued from the exercises performed before that one. An example of this would be doing a dumbbell fly, then incline barbell bench press, bodyweight dip and then a pushup. This chest workout routine would be a great giant set for fatiguing the chest with high intensity but still keeping the overall workout length short to prioritize rest.

When it comes to nutrition, RFK Jr’s diet is one based around the eating strategy known as intermittent fasting. Here he will follow a 6 or 7 hour eating window following an 18 or 17 hour fasting period. This is especially helpful for those that have a hard time with grazing throughout the day. The act of eating only within a specific window can control appetite and ultimately prevent caloric surplus to aid weight loss.

His window is typically 12pm to 6pm or 7pm which is one of the most adaptable ways to do this. This would allow you to eat lunch with co-workers and dinner with family leaving a minimal negative impact on your social life which could help you stay more consistent with it.

When it comes to TRT, RFK Jr is very open about his use. He states that he is using an anti-aging protocol that includes the use of TRT to help keep his testosterone levels up and prevent the normal age related decline in the important male hormone. Some would argue that if he wasn’t already low that the supraphysiological levels he is achieving with injections is in fact a performance enhancing drug and something that gives him an unfair edge.

To be above ground at 70 is a gift. To still be hitting the gym at 70 is a godsend.

You only get one body folks. Use it, keep it healthy, take care of it.

Honestly I lost the ability to do a single pull up so this old man banging out crappy ones still puts me to shame

I think the most important thing that Jeff said in the video was to have a why; a deeper meaning for doing what you do. Years ago, I would workout and then stop after a few months. Time would pass and I would repeat the process. A little before I married, we found out that my fiancée had myotonic muscular dystrophy. Fast forward to five years into our marriage and my wife fell trying to get up from the couch. Her condition had progressed to the point that she was unable to get up off the floor. I went to help her up and I struggled immensely. When I was finally able to get her on the couch I was out of breath. I could tell by the look on her face that she was worried about how hard it was for me to help her knowing that she would require more assistance in the future. From then on, she became my wife. I had to improve all areas of my life so that I could better care for her. When she was weak, I had to be strong. If I gave up or slacked off, then her life would suffer. I strongly urge you to find your why and to remind yourself of it daily. God Bless and have a great week!

RFK looks great for his age and a very fair analysis from Jeff. My Dad at 85 still does weights twice a week and vigorous walks three days. I also called him the other day to ask when he wanted a hand to clear some old pretty large shrubs from the end of his garden ready to replace the fence....he'd done it, chopped up and taken them to the tip!!

53 and I found a great trainer last year. I am down almost 50 pounds and stronger than ever. I can play and run with my grandkids and try to encourage my friends to stop drinking, watching TV and get out there and do stuff. I hope at 70 I am still kicking it hard like him

[richardpowell]

Thanks Jeff for giving RFK Jr some love. Politics is a crazy world, especially these days. His openness about his fitness regimen is akin to his openness about his social/political beliefs. May we all be that jacked at age 70!

[Vitruvian-Man]

Gotta give him lots of credit for being 70 and still banging out the weights.

[EMPERORTITSWORTH]

As the GM of the Austin, Texas Gold’s Gym RFK frequents, I’m here to say he puts in the work.

[elidblfap]

He’s flippin 70. He’s in pretty good shape from what I can see

[aurorealis]

You have to admire RFKjr. for his commitment to physical fitness & good health. A prime example of "your health is your greatest wealth!"

[MtndogCO]

He’s killing it! Are you kidding me, wow most of us in our 50’s working out like beasts don’t quite look this good. Great job RFK

[charlespratt]

RFK Jr is an inspiration to all us old guys trying to age well.

[expositooculto]

As a guy in his 50's who has been working out many years, who is not on TRT and has never taken steroids, it is impossible for me today to do my first set and go to failure. One of the things that have changed for me with age is the need to warm up more. I use my first two sets just to loosen my joints with very little weight, then the intensity starts to kick in.

[BeanDar]

This was such a perfect way to give RFK a shout out on a fitness channel while also staying apolitical.

[GymGarageMan]

Started training in my teens just ate sensibly and pushed it to the limit still doing it at 53 years old!!!
