Cris Rosenfeld-Bless: Can I ever get my 20-year-old body back? (Spoiler: No, But you CAN find your fitness over 50)
Supertrainer Cris Rosenfeld-Bless helps women do the seemingly impossible: get fit in their 40s and 50s … all while preventing injuries. A woman’s body—especially during menopause—is a unique machine that needs special care: nutrition, strength training, movement, and rest. Cris and Joelle talk about all of this (and why pickleball is now the leading cause of injury in older adults … but it doesn’t have to be).
Put on your favorite walking shoes and MOVE while you listen to this episode. (Or, at least put down the wine glass).
Key Takeaways:
- At midlife, strength training with lighter weights, more reps, mobility exercises, flexibility, aerobic interval training, and a nutritious diet help maintain fitness while preventing injuries.
- Mobility involves dynamic movements to prepare joints and activate muscles before a workout, while flexibility refers to static stretches held for at least 30-45 seconds after a workout when muscles are warm.
- As women age, they require more careful preparation, recovery time, and nutritional support to prevent injuries during exercise.
- For women aged mid-forties to mid-sixties starting a fitness journey, it is recommended to do a reality check on their current state, set goals, find a knowledgeable trainer who understands the menopausal/aging body, commit to a plan with accountability, and focus on proper nutrition over exercise for long-term health.
“It's not just about being fit. If you’re healthy and if you're happy, everything gets better in life. It's the most precious thing in our life: our health.” - Cris Rosenfeld-Bless
