206 | 5 Strength Training Myths Keeping Women Over 40 Stuck

Have you been overcomplicating strength training after 40? If you've ever wondered whether you're doing the "right" workout, lifting heavy enough, following the perfect program, or spending enough time in the gym, this episode may be exactly what you need to hear. A major new research review from the American College of Sports Medicine looked at 137 studies involving more than 30,000 people and came to a surprisingly simple conclusion: the biggest difference isn't between workout program A and workout program B. The biggest difference is between doing nothing and doing something. In this episode, I'm breaking down what the latest science says about strength training, why consistency matters more than perfection, and how strength training to lose weight can be much simpler than you've been led to believe. We'll talk about the best approach to building muscle, supporting hormones, improving metabolism, and using strength training as one of the most effective belly fat loss exercises available to women in perimenopause and menopause. Friend, your body doesn't need perfection.
