Men’s Journal, a leading men’s lifestyle publication with a mission to "inspire readers to live their most adventurous lives,” recently featured Sunrider® International’s Chief Medical Advisor, Dr. Reuben Chen, MD, in its October 2, 2025 online article, “Future-Proof Your Body With These 20 Joint-Saving Exercises.”
The article spotlights the importance of joint health—a crucial yet often overlooked aspect of men’s fitness routines. The piece notes that many men “spend years on the ‘show muscles’—the biceps, back, and chest that look great at the beach” while neglecting the connective tissues and smaller stabilizing muscles that help keep the body strong and injury-free as it ages.
Dr. Chen, a board-certified sports medicine physician and longevity expert, emphasized how age-related changes make joint care more vital than ever:
“Declining testosterone, slower recovery, and reduced muscle protein synthesis make building muscle a bit more challenging for men in their 40s and beyond,” said Dr. Chen. “Joint health and connective tissue also require more attention, making recovery and mobility just as important as strength training.”
The article goes on to feature “20 Exercises to Bulletproof Your Joints and Prevent Injury,” a list designed to support joint strength, mobility, and resilience with age.
