I started coaching in 1998 when I was getting my Master’s Degree so I have heard all the questions come my way.

Having help people look and fee 10 years younger with our Get You In Shape Coaching program since 2006, it comes down to a few simple things.

1. People need a plan.

2. People need a coach to help hold them accountable to following that plan.

Why should you lift weights after 50? 

15 Reasons You MUST Lift Weights After 50

After age 50 or so, many people start to gain weight, develop high blood pressure, and become frailer and weaker by the day.

Plus, we have universal fears that getting older means we’ll be likely to fall and develop dementia, losing our independence in life. But what if we told you about a miracle drug that would help you lose weight, manage your blood pressure, and improve your bone density and strength? What if this drug also helped prevent falls and memory loss? If that came in a pill, you’d swallow it, right? Who wouldn’t?

Nope, It’s Not in A Pill But if the miracle cure came from strength training? Would you be as excited? Probably not.
The health benefits of lifting weights (or resistance/strength training) for older people have been proven countless times over many years. Yet it’s still seen as a young person’s activity, usually in pursuit of nothing more than a muscular physique.

It is crucial in overcoming harmful stereotypes, so we are more than happy to share a few of the literally countless reasons why you should practice resistance training on a regular basis. You don’t want to be one of those people who can’t get up off the toilet by yourself. Or who can’t pick up your grand baby. Or sleep through the night.We’ll start with 15–all proven by legitimate medical studies. This isn’t just our opinion. Ask your doctor. Then call us, and let’s get going.

So, we’re also using more calories when we’re resting and sleeping. We are talking about the safest, most effective tool to improve your quality of life. We promise you will NOT look like you’re entering a bodybuilding show. Plus–seriously–it’s a ton of fun. And think how tickled you’ll be telling your kids and grandkids that you’re lifting weights!

Sorry it’s not in a pill. But we know this way is better
