Episode 4: The Truth About Lifting Heavy

from Fit After 40

This episode breaks down what "lifting heavy" actually means and why it's one of the most important things you can do for your body. I explore the science behind muscle growth, metabolism, and why high-rep, low-weight workouts alone don't create the toned look most are chasing. You'll learn why lifting heavy supports bone density, hormone health, and long-term strength - especially as we age. Finally, I share practical tips for getting started safely and confidently.
