The real key to staying strong AF (it’s not what you think)
The key to building muscle, losing fat, and getting strong AF in midlife isn’t about quick fixes, trendy workouts, or chasing instant results.It’s about showing up, mastering the basics, and pushing yourself with intention.
The real magic?
It’s in the mundane, repetitive work that builds true strength over time.
Same muscle groups, trained week after week—chest, back, thighs, triceps, shoulders, legs, core.
Same fundamental movement patterns—push, pull, squat, hinge, lunge, carry.
Consistency and intensity over everything. For me, that means Monday, Wednesday, and Friday with weights.Every session is focused on progressive overload.
But here’s the thing—it’s not about the size of the weight. It’s about good, clean movements that build strength in a way that actually translates to real life.
In one exercise I use a 50lb in another I use a 10lb and one I drop to a 8lb – it all creates results.
And lifting isn’t enough. I also do four days a week of low-impact cardio and interval training to keep my heart and lungs strong. Because real fitness is about moving well, breathing well, and feeling unstoppable.
Oh and lets not forget the protein as fuel. But let’s talk about what most people ignore—fuel. You can’t out-train a bad diet. Strength isn’t just about working out—it’s about recovery, hydration, and what you put in your body.
Energize Peptide gives me the energy to show up strong. No dragging through a workout—just clean, sustained fuel so I actually want to move.
Fit Peptide supports muscle recovery after training so soreness doesn’t stop me from coming back the next day.
Hydration Peptide keeps my cells fueled at the deepest level—because drinking water alone isn’t enough if your body isn’t absorbing it.
I also added creatine to my supplements. It’s one of the most studied and effective ways to build strength, improve endurance, and support muscle recovery—especially for women in midlife.
These are all the things I did not do in my 20’s that I do in my 50’s.
And here’s something I’ve realized: building strength is just like building a business.
Both take time. Both require consistency.
Both demand effort—even when you don’t feel like it. You don’t get stronger overnight, and you don’t build a thriving business overnight.
But if you keep showing up, doing the work, and trusting the process, you’ll get results. One rep at a time. One post at a time.
One action at a time.I started lifting in my twenties and kept going strong until I was 38. Then life got busy, and I dropped down to mostly walking and running.
I didn’t pick up weights again until one day at 58, I grunted trying to get up off the floor—and it wasn’t pretty. Actually, it scared me a little.
That was my wake-up call. Strength isn’t just about looking good—it’s about being able to move, lift, and live without struggling. So I got back to work, and now I’m here to support you do the same.
And no, it’s not about bulking up, ladies. It’s about carrying your groceries without struggling, opening a damn pickle jar without help, and moving through life feeling STRONG AF.
If you’re ready to make simple shifts to build real strength, grab my 5-Day Plan. It’s full of easy, everyday movements that will change how you move, feel, and recover—without overcomplicating the process.
Grab it here:
Because strength isn’t just about today. It’s about making sure you can still do all of this 10, 20, 30 years from now.
Strong AF, not skinny.Push, pull, lift, carry, move, grip, sit, stand, recover better, hydrate.It’s all about action, not restriction.
P.S. This, my friend, is what sexy is made of.
P.S.S: If we met a year from now, what strength would we be celebrating in your life
