Feel like you’re guessing when it comes to strength training?
✅ Not sure how heavy to go
✅ Don’t want to get hurt
✅ Wondering if what you’re doing is actually working
You’re not alone. Most women over 40 have been told to “lift light to stay toned” — and it’s keeping you stuck. Here’s how to break through:
1️⃣ Pick a weight that feels challenging by rep 8
If you’re breezing through 12 reps, it’s too light. You should feel like reps 8–12 take focus and effort.
2️⃣ Watch your form
Good form = safe form. As long as your technique is solid, lifting heavier is not only safe — it’s essential to change your body.
3️⃣ Match the weight to your goal
Want fat loss and muscle tone? You need to stimulate your muscles — that means lifting to challenge them.
4️⃣ Track your progress
Can you lift the same weight for more reps this week than last? That’s progress. And yes, it counts.
