How Heavy Lifting Builds Midlife Strength and Mental Resiliency with Endurance Athlete and Strongman Competitor Alyssa Ages
Meet Alyssa Ages, journalist, endurance athlete, and strongman competitor—she can pull a 50-ton truck more than 20 feet using only her body. Alyssa shares fascinating insight into the science and psychology of why pushing our physical limits not only builds strength but can also soothe our spirits and minds. We dive into her debut book, “Secrets of Giants: A Journey to Uncover the True Meaning of Strength,” and do some myth-busting around what it means for women to be strong. Bonus—we get into easy at-home ways to build strength (no truck required!), foods to fuel muscle building, how to be a weight-lifting beginner, and why midlife is the right time to become body confident.
