This is our MOST requested topic to date! Today we go in depth about what lifters in their 40s, 50, 60s, 70s and beyond should consider with their training and nutrition. If you want to start lifting later in life, or keep lifting later in life, this is the episode for you!! We also talk about changes we have made in our lifting careers as we get deeper into our 40s.
But first we discuss Jen's recent controversial Instagram post that didn't exactly come across as anticipated. And a general conversation about what a crazy place social media can be.
