#137: How to Start Strength Training Safely After 40

Want to start strength training but worried about getting hurt?

In this episode, I share my tips for starting safely. These are drawn from guiding women through my programs plus lessons from my own experience starting in menopause.

The goal: get strong, stay safe, and keep making progress you can feel.

You’ll learn:

• Why I recommend starting with 2–3 sessions per week
• The exercises I wouldn’t program for a beginner
• How to master form before you lift heavier
• How to handle modifications and injuries without losing momentum
