I share how going through a divorce, at age 40, ushered me to the gym across the street as a social refuge from my lonely apartment. In those local group fitness classes, I discovered strength training for the first time in my life. From the group fitness classes, a deep curiosity in me compelled me to sign up for a personal training course for pure education. It is never too late to start strength training and it begins with understanding the form of the Big 6 movements in strength training: Squat, Lunge, Push, Pull, Hinge and Carry. I share the experiences of my past clients: Karen, Susan and Anne Marie who all started lifting weights in their 50's. I reference Fitness Academy for Beginners which is the course I run with my fitness partner, Coach Michelle Farrell.
