Fit & Healthy Buffalo- Fitness Success After 40

Get Stronger, Live Better: The Power of Strength Training After 40 As we age, our bodies naturally lose muscle mass, bone density, and metabolism, leading to decreased energy, mobility, and overall health. But it's not inevitable! Strength training is a game-changer for people over 40, helping to reverse these declines and improve overall well-being.

As a fitness expert, I often encounter questions about the effectiveness of cardio workouts for women over 40. It’s important to understand that while cardio is beneficial, it may not always be the most efficient way to achieve fitness goals for women in this age group. Here’s why: 1. Hormonal Changes Entering perimenopause and menopause brings hormonal fluctuations that can impact metabolism, body composition, and weight loss efforts. With estrogen levels on the decline, women may notice an increase in belly fat and water retention, accompanied by a slower metabolism. These changes can make traditional cardio workouts less effective. 2. Decreased Muscle Mass After the age of 40, it’s natural for women to experience a reduction in muscle mass, which in turn slows down metabolism.

Do you ever find yourself getting really frustrated that.........no matter how hard you seem to try, sticking to a diet or workout routine always seems to fail? It’s not because of your intentions and it’s not because of your desire to change. It’s because you’ve fallen into the trap that we all do which is…....."if I can’t follow the plan 100% I won’t see results, so what’s the use?" Now that Summer is here, that mindset can derail us even more. But this thinking is exactly why most of us go up and down for YEARS when it comes to our health and fitness goals. It's the classic "all or nothing mentality". But here's the thing.....it doesn't take discipline to get the results you're after. It just takes consistency. There's a BIG difference.
