Are you starting to think about your wellness plan for 2025? If so, you might be asking yourself: Should I focus on cardio or strength training? It’s a common question, especially for women over 50, and the answer isn’t as simple as you might think. 

In this episode, we’ll break down why both cardio and strength training are essential for your health, from keeping your heart strong and preventing heart disease to maintaining lean muscle mass and avoiding the effects of aging like sarcopenia. If you’ve only got 20-30 minutes a day, we'll talk about splitting your time wisely and create a routine that fits your life—and your longevity. 

Don’t wait until January to get started; your future self will thank you! Tune in and let’s build a plan that works for you.
