Even if you’re not in your 40’s+ yet, this episode is still for you!

 

Who says strength training is just for the young? I love lifting weights!  I love feeling stronger!  I’m so passionate about advocating for the transformative power of strength training, especially for women over 40. It’s truly a vital part of maintaining health and vitality, boosting metabolism, and improving mental well-being.  Age shouldn’t stop you! Age is just a number. As most of you who have listened know, I am 59 and will be 60 in November.  I’ve never been more active and healthy than I am now!

.

So, it’s time to dust off those dumbbells or get to the gym and embrace strength training. Don’t let age be the cage that keeps you from achieving your potential! Remember, strength training isn’t just about the muscles; it’s the key to a healthier, happier life after 40 and beyond.

 

With the many benefits strength training has to offer, there’s no reason not to make it a part of your routine. Together, let’s redefine fitness over 40, change the world’s narrative about aging, and prove that age isn’t a boundary, but a launchpad for our best selves!  

 

Remember, your age is not your cage!

 

Love y’all,

Carla

Boysober

Boysober

Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
