In this episode, Nikki chats with strength and nutrition coach Steph Gaudreau and fitness coach for women over 40 Robin Legat about why strength training is such a powerful tool to help women in all stages of life.

They discuss:

• The benefits of pursuing strength training as we age if we want to maintain muscle mass, bone mass, and improve our quality of life.
• Why the small pink dumbbells have limitations in what they can do for you
• The importance of eating enough protein if you strength train and why this advice is often given
• Strength training for women myths that we shouldn't believe
• The power of focusing on something other than weight loss as a fitness goal
