293. Age Powerfully: The Secrets To Feeling Strong & Healthy In Your 40s, 50s, 60s & Beyond with JJ Virgin #FabulousFriends

Today I’m thrilled to talk to a woman I admire so much, a role model who has helped inspire my nutrition career. JJ Virgin is a triple board-certified nutrition expert and four-time New York Times bestselling author. She’s on a mission to change the narrative from aging gracefully to aging powerfully.We explore what it means to age powerfully and how to do it. JJ tells us the “magic bullets” to stay healthy and strong in your 40s, 50s, 60s and beyond. Hint: It’s all about resistance training, protein, and building muscle mass. JJ explains how to train to get better at life, plus her go-to exercises – and the moves she never does. JJ also shares her personal wellness routine, including her go-to meals, protein intake, and recovery practices. We also talk about menopause, hormone replacement therapy, and adrenal health. We wrap up with quick fire questions about her takes on caffeine, alcohol, and more. JJ is an inspiration as a wellness leader, mom, and example of how to age powerfully, and I know you’ll learn as much from her as I have.
