Love love love this article, and not because I'm featured in it. Muscle truly IS the longevity organ. If feed it high quality protein in appropriate amounts (most people and definitely women eat WAY to little), and strength train with heavy loads (this is key), we can build the muscle we need to survive and thrive way past this mid-life menopause era. IMO, it's the key factor missing in so many women's lives. I definitely NEVER want to be frail. I'll keep lifting until I simply can't any longer.
Great article and especially appreciate your message that it is never too late to get moving! I started resistance training in my 60s and have never looked back. I have more clarity, energy and feel like I could take on anything! Thanks, Anne Marie!

OMG--that last phrase belongs on a t-shirt! x
Coach, tell our readers where you got those leggings, again?
The leggings are from Constantly Varied Gear (CVG). They have lots of fun prints. I buy what's on clearance !
I love this.
De-mystifying weight training for midlife ladies!!

Great article and points up the positive impact of lifting on our bone density! I teach an exercise class built on this premise!
Wonderful! PM me!
