There comes a point in every woman’s forties when she looks in the mirror or wakes up in the morning and thinks, something is shifting. Your body feels different. Your energy feels different. Your metabolism feels very different.

When you lift weights, you are building a stronger mind as much as a stronger body. Each time you pick up a weight that once felt too heavy, you create a new version of yourself. The kind of woman who shows up, who finishes what she starts, and who no longer questions her ability to handle life’s ch...
If you’ve ever noticed your joints feeling a little stiffer or your balance not quite what it used to be, you’re not alone. As estrogen levels drop in menopause, bone density begins to decline too.
