On today’s episode of The Fit Parent Podcast I am joined by sports performance coach Jackson Lohr to talk about how to create a training routine for a long, independent lifestyle.
We go into depth on:
The importance of staying ready so you don’t have to get ready
How to start strength training for long term benefits
How to set goals to take action for your health
How to prepare your body now for the strength it will need in the future
Why you shouldn’t be afraid of lifting heavy weights over the age of 50
There are a lot of misconceptions around our capabilities when we get to a certain age - we shouldn’t lift heavy weights, we need to eat less since our metabolism has slowed down - but in reality, aging can open up an abundance. We likely have more time as we move into retirement, we should be eating more (protein) to make up for changing metabolism, and surprise surprise, lifting heavy weights is the key to a strong, healthy and long life.
