Choose yourself and feel stronger, younger, and more energetic than you have in years—even if you haven’t lifted a single weight in your life!
Do you look back at your 30s or 40s and recall how great you felt after a good workout?
Are you tired of feeling winded when you go up a flight of steps or saying “No” to invitations involving physical effort?
Has it been years since you last worked out, and does the thought of having to keep up with complicated routines prevent you from restarting?
If so, welcome to the club!
Many women feel like they have spent a lifetime giving to others yet have not been quite as generous when it comes to self-care.
Around 70% of moms in the US work—and having to juggle the demands of a career and family can be a struggle.
Yet here’s the thing about setting aside a little “me time” for your fitness and strength—the effects of the sedentary lifestyle aren’t going anywhere.
The longer you remain inactive, the more problems like obesity, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular issues can arise.
Moreover, the less you move, the more joint issues and osteoarthritis can rear their ugly heads, making it harder to be active.
There is no time like right now to make a change.
And no, Jane Fonda-style aerobic workouts alone won’t cut it.
According to the National Strength and Conditioning Association, adults should aim to perform two to three strength training workouts per week, focusing on all major muscle groups.
And, contrary to myth, lifting weights won’t make you bigger or pack on the pounds.
Quite the contrary! Strength training is a fantastic way to achieve a leaner, firmer physique.
If you’ve never performed strength training or worked out with weights before, then you may worry about where to start.
This book is here to take the mystery out of starting your love affair with strength training. Here’s just a little snippet of what you’ll find within:
- 5 reasons why women over 50 should embark on a strength training program
- The inspiring journey of three women facing hip replacement surgery, mental health challenges, and osteoarthritis (respectively)—and how strength training was immensely helpful to them
- 6 reasons why you should always include stretching in your workout, plus 4 mistakes to steer clear of when you’re lifting weights
- 6 vital strategies for getting into the frame of mind you need to get in shape
- The author’s personal strengthening plan for pre-surgery weight loss and fitness
- A full workout covering all the major muscle groups, plus illustrations and detailed instructions so that you can perform each exercise correctly and safely
- Why a personal trainer can help you set individualized goals, motivate you to excel, and provide vital advice on nutrition
- A workout for people with osteoarthritis featuring weights-free exercises for improved strength and range of motion
And so much more.
Starting a routine is always a challenge if it’s been a while since you were last active.
But if you want a long and happy life, then movement isn’t an option – it’s a must!
With this book, you can start safely and securely with a personalized routine and be on your way to feeling younger than ever.
If you are ready to feel stronger, more energetic, and more vital than you have in a long time, then scroll upwards and click “Add to Cart” now.
