#56: The 6 Biggest Fitness Mistakes Women over 40 Make

40+ Fitness for Women: Strength Training, Health & Weight Loss for Women in menopause & perimenopause

As we go through menopause our bodies change in a significant way. That's why our favorite diet and exercise regimens stop working for us.

But there is too little information out there about what women should be doing INSTEAD of all the cardio that they've been told to do all their lives.

This episode discusses the 6 biggest mistakes women make with their fitness:

1️⃣ Allowing perfection to stand in the way of getting started

2️⃣Dieting without strength training

3️⃣ Chasing quick fixes rather than lifestyle changes

4️⃣ Avoiding strength training like the plague

5️⃣ Doing random workouts expecting to get toned up

6️⃣ Wanting strength training to be more entertaining

You'll learn:

✨ Why strength training is essential even if you're NOT interested in building muscle

✨ Why staying on the diet rollercoaster is harming your body composition

✨ How long it realistically takes to transform your fitness lifestyle
