I found myself with an extra 30 minutes today after Mr T decided he wanted to watch Miss T at her swimming lessons

So I took the opportunity to get a strength body magic activity video

Strength exercises are considered vital by Slimming World because they help protect your long‑term health, preserve muscle as you lose weight, and keep your metabolism working efficiently. They’re one of Slimming World’s five “Body Magic” active habits, emphasised as essential for staying strong, independent, and healthy as you age.

💪 Why Slimming World Says Strength Training Matters

🧠 1. Protects your long‑term health
Slimming World highlights that regular strength work lowers the risk of:
- Stroke
- Cardiovascular disease
- Type 2 diabetes
- Some cancers
These benefits come from stronger muscles, better blood sugar control, and improved overall fitness.

🔥 2. Helps maintain your metabolic rate
From around age 30, we naturally lose about 5% of our muscle mass per decade. Less muscle means a slower metabolism. Strength exercises help preserve and rebuild muscle, which supports a healthier metabolic rate—especially important during weight loss.

🦴 3. Supports bones and joints
Strength training isn’t just about muscles; it also strengthens bones and connective tissues, helping you stay mobile and independent as you get older. Slimming World includes “building strength” as one of its core active habits for this reason.

🏋️ 4. Improves everyday function
Slimming World emphasises that strength isn’t only built in the gym. Everyday tasks—carrying shopping, gardening, lifting—count too. Stronger muscles make daily life easier and reduce injury risk.

😊 5. Boosts mood, memory, and confidence
Strength training is linked with improved brain function and memory, and Slimming World notes these cognitive benefits as part of why it’s worth doing regularly.

🧱 6. Helps shape your body
While not the main focus, Slimming World acknowledges that strength work can lead to more toned arms, legs, and core—an added bonus alongside the health benefits.

Who knew you could get all of this from simply moving your body?

Are you going to give it your all… just because it’s January and that’s what
you always do?

Or are you ready to break the cycle and make this the year you get to target?

Because there’s a difference between starting strong and starting right.

Going all-in for a few weeks, burning yourself out, feeling restricted, then sliding back into old habits, that’s not failure, it’s a pattern. And patterns don’t change unless we do.

This year doesn’t need extremes.

It needs consistency.

Honesty.

Patience.

And choices you can live with in February, March, and beyond.

Target isn’t reached by perfection.

It’s reached by showing up even when motivation dips.

By learning instead of quitting.

By doing things differently when the old way hasn’t worked.

So ask yourself today:

👉 Am I repeating what I’ve always done…

or am I ready to do what actually what works?

If you’re ready to break the cycle, this could be the year everything changes, not because it’s January, but because you decided it’s time. ❤️
