What We Believe

The "Be Great. Do Great" Manifesto

  • We believe that each and every guy has the potential to be incredibly healthy and fit at any age.
  • We believe that the act of prioritizing your personal health and well being is the best way to positively impact the world around you. 
  • We believe that building a healthy body is best done with others who are on a similar journey and who share similar values. 
  • We believe in proving something works before teaching it to others.
  • We believe in progress, not perfection. That shame, guilt, and comparing your beginning to someone else’s middle have no place in our journey. Doing your best and continually improving is all that matters.
  • We believe that learning from others who have "been there, done that" is the fastest way to grow. 
  • We believe that incredible success in health and fitness begins with a belief that we can be incredibly fitn and healthy at ANY age and that societal norms are simply not good enough. 
  • We believe that our health and well being are our most valuable assets, and that when we learn to prioritize ourselves we are able to more easily enrich the lives of others by leading from the front.
  • We believe that the health of our body is a clear representation of of the habits we build into our life.
  • We value efficiency, efficacy, and safety when it comes to building a body a healthy, fit body that looks great at any age.
  • We believe in working smarter, not harder. That more can be accomplished in less time by focusing on the big rocks instead of chasing tiny pebbles.
  • Experiencing life in a body that is super healthy and fit is our calling. We're on this planet to live a life full of opportunity and we are happiest when we have no limits.
  • We accept full responsibility for our health and well being and strive to be an asset to society rather than a liability.
  • We are committed to creating a world where everyone has access to the right knowledge and resources to improve their health. A world where obesity and metabolic disease is rare.
  • Where the healthcare system is no longer a sick care system and where each individual trusts their own knowledge and experience more than dogmatic prescriptions.

How It All Started

Hi, I'm Tony Bevilacqua

I'm the founder and CEO of Athletic After 40®.

I’m also a husband, father to an amazing son, former Team USA Weightlifting Coach, world class CrossFit coach, nutrition expert, former college athlete, cancer survivor, and trusted health expert. I’m a also a proud coach to many who want to experience life in a body that defies "normal" ageing.

TonyBevilacqua

So I dug deep into the science of nutrition, fitness, and recovery and eventually created a simple, yet highly effective framework to keep myself incredibly healthy...for a LIFETIME.

It has since been almost 20 years since my battle with cancer and I am excited to say that my strategies have paid off tremendously.

Since winning my battle with cancer, I have been coaching and consulting with others who desire to live a healthy, active life in a body they love.

And because of my  experiences before and during my cancer battle, I can relate to the struggles many people are facing with their own health and well being.

...Like being overweight (I was 30# overweight before cancer), out of energy, and frustrated and confused by all the solutions that are in the marketplace today.

It wasn't until I sifted through all of the BS out there that I was able to come up with something simple that I could share with others..

So, in 2005, I went all-in with coaching clients on their health, fitness, and nutrition journey's and eventually (after many years of struggle) built a very successful coaching business doing so.

Over the past 20 years, I’ve owned and operated multiple health and fitness centers where I have helped 1'000's of men and women reach their goals.

Even though I’ve become one of the most sought-after health and fitness coach's to some of the most successful people in the country, things were not always that way. 

My interest in health came during a 3 year battle with cancer in my early 30's. Wanting to heal myself, without the use of traditional medical practices, I sought out every health practitioner I could find. I was amazed by their knowledge they possessed and the transformation they helped me go through. 

Yet, I found it odd that so many of the tactics and strategies they used were overly complicated and largely unsustainable. A seed was planted inside of me that I must somehow find a simpler way to maintain the incredible health I had worked so hard to build during my time overcoming cancer.

First, I knew I had to "trim the fat" from all the traditional methodologies around the biggest pillars of health. Fitness and nutrition, specifically, should not be complicated. 

Most recently, I have chosen to specialize in helping guys over 40 who have let themselves go over the years and want to start turning things around. I have chose guys over 40 because that is who I am and who I can relate to best. 

In 2019, I started Athletic After 40® to provide  world-class coaching around these proven nutrition, fitness, and  mindset strategies to help them build healthy, good looking bodies that stand the test of time.  If I can do it...Anyone can. 

But there’s no way I could have done any of this by myself. I’m grateful for the incredible team we’ve built over the years. Let me introduce you to them here …
