In this episode, Lynn shares her expertise on training older adults — why strength, balance, and mobility matter more than aesthetics, and how simple exercises can make everyday life easier and safer. From preventing falls to building confidence, you’ll hear inspiring stories and evidence-based tips.

Whether you’re thinking about your own health as you age, or you want to help your mum, dad, or granny stay strong and independent, this conversation is full of insights you won’t want to miss. We have Lynn back next week before the winter break!

Just as a side note. In the episode we discussed the distinction between muscle mass and strength. I wasn't 100% sure so here is a short defintion: 

Muscle mass and strength are closely linked; bigger muscles can produce more force, but true strength also depends on the nervous system, technique, and coordination.

It is can be a good idea to consult a medical professional when starting on a new exercise/diet plan.
