Susan Niebergall and I discuss the significance of being lean and strong and why it is never too late to begin improving your health.


Susan is an online strength coach with a passion for helping people change their lives by getting as strong as possible and finally losing the stubborn fat they never thought they could lose. She just turned 60 years old and is the healthiest she’s ever been. Having made every mistake in the book over the years she was the consummate Yo-Yo dieter and even started blaming menopause for her weight gain as she got older. She finally turned it all around in her mid-50’s with some reality checks and by surrounding herself with supportive people who could help her. She wants to empower women and spread the message that it's never too late to move better, feel better, lose fat, and build muscle. She knows that change is possible at any age.
