Back to Episodes#17: Lifting weights after 50 - what it's like to start weight training in midlife
Description
I started weight training at age 50 when I noticed that my muscle tone had decreased radically. I've done weight training before - back in my 20s and 30s, and this was different. I wanted to share my journey in hopes that it will inspire women in midlife to put aside their concerns about weight training, and start lifting!
In the episode, I describe:
- What finally got me to start again
- What I tried first (which did NOT work)
- Training at home and at the gym
- What level of body recomposition I've been able to achieve
I refer to the following episodes that I recommend you listen to if you're interested in learning more about the factors that will effect how quickly you see results: POD #12 & #13 - How quickly you'll see results (factors affecting results)
