So hopefully now you’ve read the captions I’ve helped you to understand that your metabolism doesn’t automatically slow down after 40!

So much scaremongering out there for women over 40 and it’s normally for marketing purposes to sell you something. Stick with me and I will stay factual and truthful to help you stay strong and healthy as you age.

Let me know in the comments below if this is helpful 😉

🙏share so that we can help women not feel so confused and overwhelmed by all the misinformation 👊

Haven’t run recently for various reasons but got to go out with the pro today ❤️

and even though the stats of my run were awful and my body felt so slow and heavy, I got out, I moved my body, I was out in nature and I got to run with him ❤️

So even though 1 session felt awful and frustrating, it’s not a reason to quit. Keep going, keep improving and enjoy the journey.

Hit ❤️ if you agree

🔈For women over 40, squats, lunges, and deadlifts are considered lower-body “powerhouse” exercises because they deliver the biggest return on effort—building strength, protecting joints, and supporting long-term health when hormones, muscle mass, and bone density start to shift.

They are going to keep you mobile as you age and help prevent falls which is something we reallly want to avoid.

These movements mirror everyday tasks:
• Squats → getting up from chairs or toilets
• Lunges → climbing stairs, preventing falls
• Deadlifts → lifting kids, groceries, laundry, luggage

Training them keeps women capable and confident, not fragile.

3 round of these 3 exercises 3 times a week is a perfect workout to grow your lower body strength.

10-12 reps each exercise or till you reach a point where are you working hard to create the movement.

Let’s get strong, not skinny and frail 💪

‼️New to exercise in January then read this…

When you exercise—especially if it’s new, heavier, or includes slow “lowering” movements—your muscles experience tiny micro-tears in the muscle fibres. This is normal and part of how muscles get stronger.

Your body responds with:
• Inflammation
• Fluid buildup
• Repair and rebuilding of muscle tissue

That process causes the soreness.

What it feels like
• Tender or achy muscles
• Stiffness or reduced range of motion
• Sometimes mild swelling
• Usually shows up 12–48 hours after the workout (not immediately)

What causes it most
• Strength training (especially eccentrics)
• New exercises or higher volume
• Returning to workouts after a break

What helps
• Light movement (walking, gentle stretching)
• Staying hydrated
• Protein intake to support repair
• Adequate sleep
• Warm showers or light massage

What it doesn’t mean
• ❌ It doesn’t mean you injured yourself (sharp pain is different)
• ❌ It doesn’t mean the workout was “bad”
• ❌ You don’t need to be sore to make progress

Over time, as your body adapts, soreness usually decreases, even while strength improves.

Who’s experienced this before?!
