Ten years ago, I reluctantly walked into a gym, thinking, "Here we go again, another gym I’ll quit in a few months." But a decade later, I’m still training at the same gym with the same trainer, Dan, an exercise sports scientist who has completely changed my approach to fitness.

In this episode, Dan and I discuss why midlife is the perfect time to focus on strengthening our bodies. We explore the benefits of resistance training for women, including preventing osteoporosis, improving mobility, and maintaining overall health as we age. Dan also shares tips for finding the right trainer, debunks common fitness myths, and explains why consistency is the key to long-term results.
