Strength training isn’t just for athletes—it’s one of the best things you can do for your health, energy, and confidence after 40.

In this episode, I’m talking with physical therapist and health coach Michele Riechman about why strength training for women over 40 matters, how it supports your metabolism and hormones, and simple, realistic ways to start - without falling into the all-or-nothing trap.

If you’ve been waiting for the “right time” to start, this conversation might be exactly what you need.
