Ladies, we are NOT here for workouts that leave us exhausted, burnt out, and questioning all our life choices. Today, we’re talking about the reality check that hits after 40—when your old gym tricks stop working, and your hormones decide to throw a party you didn’t want an invite to.

If you’ve ever wondered why your two-hour gym sessions aren’t giving you the results they used to—or if you’re struggling to find time for fitness in the chaos of midlife—this episode is for YOU.

I’m breaking down how to train smarter, not longer, and why it’s time to ditch the gym bro splits in favor of workouts that keep you strong, energized, and ready to chase those grandkids (or at least keep up with your overly active Golden Retriever).

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

👉Why your 20-something workout routine isn’t cutting it anymore

👉 The truth about strength training, belly fat, and perimenopause

👉 How to structure a workout for real-life strength (because picking up your grandkids is more important than bicep day)

👉Why less cardio and more smart training is the key to results

👉 How to make workouts work for you—even if you’re short on time

Mentioned in This Episode:

  • My go-to workout structure for women 40+
  • How to train for power without feeling like you’re breaking your knees
  • The one thing you need to focus on for long-term results

 

Ready to Work Out Smarter?

If you’re done with the “no pain, no gain” BS and want to feel STRONG and ENERGIZED without spending your life in the gym, let’s do this!

Listen now and don’t forget to screenshot this episode, tag me @kimjeffersoncoach, and let me know—are you training to be the strongest old lady in the nursing home?
