Summary
What if your fitness goals focused on getting stronger instead of just losing weight? In this episode, we're talking about why strength training is one of the most important things women over 40 can do for longevity, healthy aging, and maintaining independence as they get older. We'll discuss why muscle matters, how strength supports your future health, and simple strength goals you can work toward, such as push-ups, pull-ups, squats, and improving endurance. I also share my story of getting out of breath walking up stairs after having my third child and how that experience changed the way I approached fitness. If you want to feel stronger, healthier, and more capable for years to come, this episode is for you.
