Sarcopenia - this term seems to be popping up a lot in articles and podcasts lately. What is it - sarcopenia refers to age-related, progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass, strength, and function. As we age, we lose muscle to support our bones in everyday activities. Continuing to strengthen is so important so that as we age we can perform basic movements like walking, climbing stairs, getting off a chair, with ease, confidence and strength. Don't take your body for granted, we know that we begin to lose muscle mass in our 30's. So whether you are 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 - start or keep strengthening your body!

Weight training in your 40s isn’t just about building muscle; it’s about protecting your bones and staying independent for decades to come.

These are the exercises to prioritise if you’re new to strength training in your 40s, according to a PT.

Do you realise that historically, a large portion of the information on exercise and nutrition was based on studies that used male subjects? We now have visionary females such as Dr. Stacey Sims who are driving research, gathering data, and educating us on the differences related to gender and exercise and nutrition. Great listen below on Diary of a CEO.

👏lets get to it ladies!

New research shows women over 50 can reverse bone loss, build muscle, and boost brain function with just three weekly workouts, according to Dr. Stacy Sims.

She recommends jump training to stimulate bone density, heavy resistance training to counter sarcopenia, and sprint interval training to fuel cognitive resilience.

Sims outlines high-intensity protocols and nutrition guidelines—like 1–1.1g protein per pound—plus a sample weekly plan.

These targeted sessions take less time than traditional cardio, offering age-defying benefits and reshaping conventional fitness advice.

Exercise significantly boosts mental health by releasing "feel-good" hormones, reducing stress, anxiety, and depression, improving mood, sleep, self-esteem, and focus, and offering social connection!
As instructors, we get to see the transformation happen from beginning to end of each session - movement is energy in motion, physically and mentally!

Pilates or Strength Training?
Both modalities offer exceptional benefits, and a combination of the two can lead to enhanced core strength, deep stabilizing muscles, and global muscle development. Pilates excels in improving flexibility and muscle endurance, while Strength Training boosts power and bone density.
We love them both! Which approach do you prefer?

Did you know that as women age our body naturally starts to lose 3–5% of muscle mass per decade after the age of 30! Muscle is lost far more easily and quickly than it’s built, so a consistent strength training routine is crucial, especially as you get older.
