Weight training after 40 is one of the best things you can do for your health and well-being both in the short term and long term. If you haven't started yet, here are some compelling reasons to finally get going!!

In this episode, I go over just some of the benefits of weight training (10 of them) Though lifting weights is beneficial to anyone at any age, I'm focusing on the reasons that strength training is especially important for women in perimenopause and beyond.

• How weight training affects body composition
• How weight training strengthens muscles
• How weight training strengthens tendons & ligaments
• How to increase your bone density by lifting weights
• How weight prevents frailty and functional decline
• How weight training reverses mitochondrial aging
