#134: How I’d Start Strength Training If I Were 49 Again
Update: 2025-09-02
Description
If you’re a woman in your 40s or 50s thinking about starting strength training (or trying to figure out why it’s not working the way you hoped), this episode is for you.
At 49, I realized that the workouts I’d been doing for years - BodyPump, bootcamp, and follow-along "strength training" videos - weren’t enough to build real muscle or get the toned, athletic look I wanted.
In this episode, I share:
- The biggest mistakes I made when I first tried to build muscle in midlife
- What finally made a difference (and why my results came faster once I changed my approach)
- How you can skip the trial-and-error and start seeing better results now
If you’re still stuck doing random workouts or not sure what “proper strength training” actually looks like, listen in — and then join my free Lift-Off! 🚀 challenge to try it for yourself.
