56: Building Muscle: Your Blueprint for Better Health

You hear it everywhere these days: building muscle is an absolute MUST for women in midlife.

As a midlife woman, who is also recovering from breast cancer, I’ve been taking a deep dive into my own health. What I’ve learned about muscle is truly staggering.

The statistics on bone fractures and falls for older women are jaw-dropping, but here's the thing: it all ties back to how much muscle we have.

I'm giving you my top three most compelling reasons to start building muscle today, plus some simple, actionable steps to get you started.

In this episode, we'll dive into:

• How building muscle now can protect against bone loss later in life.
• The shocking statistic about the leading cause of death for women, that muscle can help prevent.
• My personal number one most compelling reason you need to start lifting weights today.
• The simple scan you can get today that tells you exactly where you are with your bone density.
• What a “physique coach” is and why I hired one at 50.

Envision what you want your life to be like in your 50s, 60s, and 70s. Give yourself a strong, healthy body now, as your insurance policy to make that happen.
