Why Your Workout Isn't Working (anymore...)

This week we’re diving into one of the most important—yet most misunderstood fitness truths: not all exercise styles build muscle, especially after those glorious newbie gains wear off.

 

Inspired by a recent client breakthrough (and one well-placed “holy sh*t!” during chest flies), we’re breaking down the major differences between endurance, hypertrophy, strength, and power training—what they are, how they actually work in the body, and what kind of stimulus each provides.

You’ll learn:

• Why group fitness is awesome… but likely not building the muscle you think it is

• What phase of training you’re probably stuck in (and how to move forward)

• Why rest matters (and why long breaks aren’t lazy)

• The difference between true HIIT and “HIIT-ish” workouts

• How to know if your weight is heavy enough

Whether you're new to fitness or feeling stuck in a plateau, this episode will help you understand what your workouts are doing—and not doing—for your body, especially in perimenopause and beyond.

And if you’re curious about our new Fit After 40 Small-Group Personal Training cohorts launching this November (in person + virtual!), hop on the waitlist!

You deserve to feel strong, capable, and clear on what’s best for your body.

 

Let’s get smart. Let’s get strategic. Let’s get after it from now until forever!
