Hey! Are you in your 40s and feel bummed out when you look at yourself in the mirror? You don't recognize yourself and wonder if you will ever be able to lose that belly and feel strong again.  I'm here to tell you that weight loss is a losing battle. In your 40s, it's time to shift to a different approach: body composition. Focusing on your muscle-to-fat ratio is the key to finally get the body you long for.  And in today's episode, we talk about adding muscle. I share what I do in the gym and the principles I have used that have allowed to  - Put on 5.5 lbs of muscle in 1 year (not bad for a 43 year old woman) - Go from 24% body fat to 20% - Ideal for women! - Become stronger than I was in my 20s! - Choose the right type of exercise at the gym, without the fluff When you apply what I share in this episode, you will be able to make your workout more efficient, maximize the gains and troubleshoot your plateaus.   Ready to take action?
