103: A Strength Challenge

The Habit Thrive Podcast ~ Self Care Habits, Mindfulness & Wellness Routines for Women 50 & Beyond

Well, Habit Thrivers, we are coming in strong💪 (pun intended) to another week here on the Habit Thrive Podcast!

This week, on Episode #103, I am keeping up the momentum I was inspired🥰 to gather during last week’s spectacular interview!

Chatting with Kim reminded me how valuable🫶 a strength routine is for our health and well-being: Not just physically, but also mentally.🧠

So, we are going to spend the month of June focusing on movement. Movement such as:

✅Pushing

✅Pulling

✅Hinging

We are going to start off this week by taking a look at our “why”🤔 for strength training.:

❤️To be able to move the large pots in the garden

❤️To be able to pick up growing grandchildren

❤️To be able to push the boat off from the dock

Knowing our “why” makes it easier for us to turn our strength training activity into a habit and also know which movements are going to benefit us the most.

If you’re not sure where to start, I recommend that you begin with a plank and/or push-ups every day this week.

It’s a simple, basic movement that targets arms, legs and core strength - which we all can use!

Additionally, I suggest☝️ reading something each day that is related to the benefits of strength training for women.

Hit Google or your favorite podcast🎙️ platform for some quick tips on “strength training for women after 50” or “post-menopause bone density” or “how to maintain arm strength in my 60s”...

Or whatever else speaks to you.

Just make it a habit every day, and watch yourself grow stronger right before your eyes!😍
