Making Muscle Memories
Making Muscle Memories is a biomechanics-driven strength podcast for adults over 50 who feel their bodies changing and want a safe way to stay strong, capable, and independent.
Hosted by Lauren Eirk, a muscle and biomechanics specialist with over 40 years of experience, this podcast takes a different approach to fitness and aging.
Instead of chasing intensity, burning calories, or following generic programs, you’ll learn how to:
• Rebuild muscle strength in a way that supports your joints
• Reduce pain by improving how your body functions
• Restore confidence in how your body moves
• Understand why traditional approaches often lead to injury
• Train with structure, purpose, and long-term progression
Each episode blends personal stories, real-life experiences, and practical teaching to help you better understand your body and what it truly needs as you age.
