Today I’m talking with my very close friend, strength coach and yoga teacher Gina Wright.

This episode is kind of us just having a conversation with each other and then sharing it with all of you to listen, so expect a lot of laughing and fun tangents.

Within that we have an amazing conversation around why strength training for women is non negotiable, how to get started if you feel intimidated and overwhelmed and what lifting heavy actually means (its not what you think).

Gina is also an expert in fitness for women going through the various stages of menopause and she shares some really valuable tips to help you feel better in your body while going through this emotionally and physically taxing time. 

One of the most important topics we talk through is how individualized our needs are when it comes to exercise and strength training because of your history, lifestyle and preferences. Yes, there are guidelines, but within that there is the possibility for SO many options to make it work for you in the best way possible. 

And of course you can’t talk strength training without talking protein. We share some really simple guidelines to give you a starting point to get more protein into your diet.
