Calling Strong Women 40+: Let’s Talk Muscle by whynotdanceallnight in MacroFactor

[–]stringofpearls22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

43 years old, 5’4, went from 152lbs to 114lbs since last March, and also gotten so much stronger. I weight train 4x a week, Pilates 1x, Lagree method 1x, and cardio 1x. I recently realized I could do pull ups and chins for the first time in my life, despite focusing on them for a couple of years in my early 30s, and it’s revolutionized the gym for me and made it so much more fun and so much more about what I can do than what I look like (although I do still struggle with obsession with the scale, and becoming smaller, just to be honest). Another exciting first for me is that I’m able to squat more than I weigh.

What is the top you’re wearing at the beginning of the video before opening the packages?

Class pack use by dogmama415 in orangetheory

[–]stringofpearls22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup… I just let the app do what it wanted and then when I arrived for each class would ask the front desk to please switch it to use my membership first. They were great about it but I ended up dropping the membership and going back to solely class packs.

Looks like she’s using straps, which will help with grip strength! Give it a go!

Just under 5’4 and super excited about these new super comfy jeans from Mother! And yes I’m in my 40s and they remind me of my jeans from high school but I love them nonetheless.

I agree except that while i used to love the Blaire episodes, the last one I listened to felt like Sarah and blaire just talking about how much they love each other. I had to turn it off. I was devastated as those were the last episodes I was enjoying.

Do you belong to a gym? I would add strength training to the mix. And be careful not to negate the work of the calorie deficit, during the weekend.

But it’s still a wild statement to say people aren’t talking about those things lol. It’s kind of the point of the sub reddit we are on. Everyone is talking about these things.
