Strength Training Exercises for Women Over 40

At what point is it too late to start weight training? Never!

I truly mean that. No matter your age, even if you’ve never lifted a dumbbell in your life, it is never too late to begin. That said, I know it can be intimidating to get started. 

In today’s episode, I explain everything you need to know to strength train properly: exactly what to do, how to do it, and when to switch it up. You’ll learn how to start and progress a resistance-training program to build muscle and increase your strength and power—without getting injured. Plus, I’m revealing the most important factor in a successful exercise routine… and it may not be what you think. 

After you listen, be sure to head over to YouTube to watch me demonstrate the correct form to prevent injury and improve your results.  Whether you’re brand new to resistance training or have been doing it for years, this episode will help you get the most out of your routine.
