Lifting weights... the cardinal sin for ladies
At least that was the mindset for decades
"I dont want to get bulky"
"I'll look like a man"
"Heavy lifting is for guys"
Nowadays thankfully we are seeing a shift in mindset that is absolutely fantastic, more and more ladies are leading their fitness charge with a "i want to lift heavy s**t" mentality
QUESTION: what was your deciding moment into lifting weights to live longer rather than trying to be as skinny as possible.
The risks of not lifting weights into your perimenopause/menopause years of life are quite terrifying if you really look at them.
Did you know you can lose up to on average 5% of your muscle mass per decade... in 30 short years that could be 15% of your muscle mass!!(and that's just the average amount) some people its up to 8%!!!
And unfortunately they are simply brushed off as "getting old"
When: like an old car
If you take care of its parts, it'll take care of you
Unfortunately replacement parts for humans are a lot harder to come by.
Ive dropped some topics down below for next week's discussion
