﻿How To Look Your Best As You Get Older [0:00:00]
Tip number one to looking good as you get older, give a damn about your appearance.
Seriously, you see some of these guys out there and it looks like they've given up on life. I
mean, what happened to them? They've got a decent job, they got a good looking partner.
The reality is they stopped caring about their appearance because they think it doesn't matter.
And let's not be judgmental because this can happen to any one of us. I mean, seriously,
since a lot of you guys are working from home, you no longer dressing sharp. Why care? As long as you
got that zoom shirt, decent looking backdrop, you're ready for the conference call, right?
Now, there's a lot of freedom that comes with the new normal. One of them is,
hey, nobody in the conference call knows that you're not wearing pants.
But, you know and that's the thing. And your confidence and the way that you carry
yourself and the way that you feel about yourself is affected by the way you dress.
So, even if you're not going anywhere, practice dressing sharp because that affects
your mindset, which sets the tone for the day. In today's video, gents, how to look your best
as you get older. [Music]
Now, I assume that most of you guys are familiar with Dwayne Elizondo Mountain
Dew Herbert Camacho. As the future President of the United States in the movie, Idiocracy,
he leads the country out of the great burrito and French fries shortage of 2505.
Seriously, though, the guy that plays him, Terry Crews,
absolutely love him as a comedian and actor. Now, a lot of people assume that Crews is
just naturally a funny guy, but that's not the case. In fact, if you look at his early career,
totally different industry, NFL. He was there for six years and went through multiple
teams. Kept getting cut, couldn't find a place, couldn't find a team for himself.
And he decided, you know, in the late 1990s, I'm going to go out to Hollywood. I'm going
to try something new and start over there. Now, early on, his career didn't go anywhere.
For two years, he was riding trying to get roles. Eventually, though, his persistence starts to pay
off. 2004, 2005, 2006, he starts getting all these small roles. And, instead of being typecast, he
really pushed, you know what? Hey, I enjoy comedy, especially, you know, something off kilter.
Something where it mixes my physique and my look with a comedic style that really is
unexpected. That led to the Old Spice commercials, which eventually led
to other roles such as his reoccurring role in the series Brooklyn Nine-Nine.
My point here, why am I talking about Terry Crews? Because I love how the guy
reinvents himself. Seriously, if you want to look good as you get older, don't be afraid
to change things up, to reinvent your style, to reinvent yourself, and what you're going after.
Because a guy that changes things up, he doesn't get stuck in a rut. He doesn't get trapped in
the past. He knows that, you know what? I can uplift myself and I can go in a new direction.
This may be a passion you want to pursue as a new career or maybe something as simple as you stop
wearing running shoes and start wearing western boots when you go out with your girlfriend.
The point is a man that can reorient himself and go after his passions go after what he wants his
dreams is going to be a lot more attractive than a guy that, yeah, is stuck in a rut.
Next up, I want you to cheat on your barber on your stylist. What am I talking about? I want you
to get a second opinion. When you're traveling, go see that stylist in New York City in L.A.
that is going to just give you a different opinion a different look a different style
that you can go with on your hair. Seriously, you've been doing the same
thing forever, let's have fun let's change it up. And some of you guys are watching
this is saying, “Antonio, I don't have anything to worry about. I'm already losing my hair or
hair loss runs in my family.” Well, gents, if that's you,
you need to check out Keeps, the sponsor of today's video. Now, guys, I've talked about Keeps
for years because I love what these guys do. Keeps is a subscription service that focuses on

to understand is that prevention is key. And, gents, if you need more proof, go over

The next key to looking great as you age is don't be afraid to change up the
style of clothing. The clothing that you used to wear isn't necessarily going to
complement the body build you have as you age. Now, some guys lose weight, they get in great
shape as they age. Other people let's say you just spend a lot of time in the gym in your 20s. Now,
you're working a lot more maybe your waist has expanded a bit. Maybe just simply you've lost some
of that muscle, you decided to start running. Here's the thing. Those jeans that look great on
you when you spent time in the gym, they're not necessarily that style isn't going to look great
on you when you thin up. So, you're going to want to look for styles for types of clothing that's
going to complement your new body build. [0:05:00]
Now, let me be clear. I'm not saying that you shouldn't take care of your body and
you shouldn't work to have a great physique. But as you age, things are naturally going to
happen and you may find, hey, I just don't have the bubble butt I used to because I'm
getting less testosterone and my body is changing as I'm getting into my 40s my 50s.
So, in that case you may find that a certain style of jean, hey, you just want to change up
the brand. Go for something that better complements your new build and look.
And to reinforce that last point, I'm going to say now is the time that you want to hire
a trainer. Now is the time you want to find a workout buddy, somebody to push you. Again,
when you're in your 20s, it's very easy I think to stay in shape compared to your 30s to your 40s.
As life hits you with all these responsibilities, you have habits that are going to be difficult to
break. One of the best things you can do for yourself is even if it's just for a month,
hire a trainer, work with a trainer. They can actually look at your form, introduce you to
new exercises new workout options. You may find, hey, all of a sudden,
I'm getting into cross-country skiing. This is something I didn't think, but although,
hey, this just feels great, I'm getting quite the workout, meeting some new and interesting people.
And, you won't do that though unless you make a commitment. So,
find someone you can work out with. Find a trainer, find a club that you can join.
Now, gents, if you feel like a fine wine, as you age you're getting better, do me a favor and smash
that like button. Seriously, gents, when you smash that like button, some guy somewhere stops wearing
square toed shoes. It makes a difference. Now, what about if your hair starts to gray
or your skin starts to get lighter because you're not spending as much time outdoors? Well,
guess what? Your colors change, so you can also change up the colors in your wardrobe.
A lot of guys don't think about it this way. But, hey,
that light gray jacket that looked on you when you were in your 20s, now, looks great on you when
you're in your 40s and you've got that gray mane. Because, yes, that great mixed in with the gray,
it just really draws out your eyes. It isn't as overwhelming. You find that pastels are
great colors you can gravitate towards because they don't pull color out and they just look
really good on you with your new complexion. The next tip to looking great as you get older,
don't be afraid to upgrade your accessories. So, when you're in your 20s,
you bought yourself that watch for a hundred bucks and it served you for a decade.
But, now, you're in your mid-30s and you're earning good money, why not treat yourself
to a gift to a luxury watch? It doesn't have to be, you know, 10,000, 20,000. You
can find something for a thousand dollars. Yes, it's going to be expensive, it's going
to be an investment, though, a piece that you’re going to remember and you’re going to celebrate,
possibly an heirloom piece you'll pass on. Maybe you want to upgrade that bag. Yes,
that leather briefcase that you got passed on to you. Now, it's seen better days, maybe take it
in get it re, you know, furnished rebuilt. Or go in and choose one that really suits your style,
something that you can add to your repertoire. All of a sudden, you're adding it to your rotation
and it really is going to level up your look. The next tip to look great as you get older,
take care of your teeth. When you're in your 20s, okay, you brush you floss you go to the dentist.
You do the basic things. But, as you get into your 30s or if you drink a lot of
coffee and you're younger, all of a sudden your teeth start to stain, so whiten them.
Nothing wrong with this, especially if you're nervous, go to a professional. But,
there are so many kits out there I think you can do this cheaply.
But, let's talk also about straightening your teeth. I know I'm going to be actually going
through a procedure to straighten my teeth. Now, I'm going to be transparent. There is a
cosmetic reason why I want to get my teeth straight. But,
it's also because I spoke with my dentist and I think the tipping point was when he pointed out,
hey, this is going to actually make your teeth last longer.
It's an investment in your original teeth because right now the way your teeth are and how they're
starting to bend and they're continuing to, over the last five years, you eventually are
going to start having certain teeth are just putting more wear and tear on them and they
are going to be the first ones that you lose no matter how much you take care of your teeth.
So, for me, I know straightening my teeth is just going to give me a
better bite and help my teeth last longer. The next tip to looking great as you age,
have a preemptive grooming routine. What am I talking about? Your nails,
the hair coming out of your ears coming out of your nose, take care of it before it's an issue.
Yes, when you're in your 20s you did it whenever you thought about it, but as you get into your
30s a little bit older, all of a sudden you notice that hair is growing faster and you
got more of it coming out of those places. You want to make sure that you take care
of it before people notice. And they will start to notice especially shorter people
look up at you and all of a sudden you got that forest coming out of your nose. Yeah,
let's take care of that before it's an issue. All right, gents. So, what did I miss? I didn't
