Interested in building strong muscles, growing healthy bones and burning calories at the same time? Strength training — which includes lifting weights and doing weight-bearing exercises —could be just the activity you’re looking for, as it provides a long list of positives for women of all ages. Strength training might even help you live longer. 💯

“It’s really important for maintaining muscles, bone mass and keeping you doing the things you want to do, no matter your age. Remember, it’s never too late to build muscle or to build bones. Plus it really makes you feel good too.” While there are scores of gym classes and long lists of outdoor activities to choose from, adopting a weight-bearing exercise regimen – even a few days a week – can build strength and stamina that are key for women’s health as we age, go through menopause and in the latter part of life. ✔ If you need help putting together an exercise program specific to your requirements, contact us as our exercise physiologists can offer face to face or telehealth consult.

Previous research shows that as many as 50% of older adults globally have sleeping difficulties, and it is not uncommon for adults aged 60 and older to have the sleep disorder insomnia. Past studies show that insomnia may increase a person’s risk for several health concerns, including heart disease, depression, cognitive impairment, dementia and risk of falls. ☑

There are a number of lifestyle changes that people can make that can help fight insomnia, such as avoiding caffeine a few hours before bedtime, keeping a consistent sleep schedule, stress management, and increasing daytime physical activity. Now, a new review of the evidence recently published in the journal Family Medicine and Community Health reports that resistance or strength training might be the best exercise for treating insomnia in older adults. 🙌 If you need help putting together an exercise program specific to your requirements, contact us as our exercise physiologists can offer face to face or telehealth consult.

Reposted • .pcos.dietitian All types of exercise (cardio, strength training, HIIT, yoga) have health benefits for PCOS … but weight training may be the most important one!🏋️♀️
Yet it’s the one that is often neglected by many women - often due to not knowing what to do, feeling intimated or fear of bulking up.

Building muscle has SO many health benefits for PCOS, including:
1️⃣Lowering blood sugar and improving insulin resistance (think of those muscle cells “sucking in glucose” without having to make insulin to “open the cell doors”)
2️⃣Lowers androgens (it has the most potent effect of androgens compared to other forms of exercise!
3️⃣Improves mood, builds confidence
4️⃣Speeds metabolism & helps with weight loss
5️⃣Lowers body fat and builds muscle

Despite having more testosterone, most women with PCOS don’t make enough testosterone to get bulky from weight lifting - so don’t be afraid to challenge yourself with heavier weights (but listen to YOUR body)

Regular exercise is an important piece of a heart-healthy lifestyle. But how does strength training fit into the puzzle? Does lifting weights make blood pressure spike—or help lower it? Blood pressure is the force of the blood moving through your blood vessels. High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, happens when that force is greater than it should be. 💪

Regular exercise also helps strengthen the heart muscle. A strong heart pumps blood more effectively, that can help lower blood pressure over time. Weightlifting and resistance training build muscle mass, strengthen bones, and can improve balance as you get older. Both aerobic exercise and strength training also improve the function of blood vessels—which may, in turn, help lower high blood pressure. ✔ If you need help putting together an exercise program specific to your requirements, contact us as our exercise physiologists can offer face to face or telehealth consult.

Posted • Fitness and lifting weights has come a long way for women. Early fitness and the gym used to only be for the men. Men lifted dumbbells and iron and women just did cardio, stayed on the elliptical and used colorful 2 to 10 pound dumbbells.

There’s a lot of history and transitions in fitness, but I remember probably in the early 2000s and even to this day that I hear people avoiding weight training because they are afraid of looking bulky.

And yes, there were a lot of myths floating around that if women lifted really heavy or weight trained often that they would get huge “like a man” and start looking like the typical bodybuilding women you saw on TV or bodybuilding shows.

If you are training for that purpose or to look strong and have muscle, yes you will have the muscular look. If you are not going for that and aren’t into that, that is completely okay! There are so many more benefits to lifting weights other than just physically looking different. No matter what age, background, gender, it doesn’t matter. I have all clients weight train because it’s many benefits.

Researchers have found numerous benefits to staying dedicated to your strength training routine, including promoting weight loss and developing stronger bones. Studies have revealed that strength training can also sharpen your thinking and learning skills, as well as enhance your overall quality of life. You can do strength training at home or in the gym using your own body weight with moves like pull-ups, planks, lunges, and squats. 💪

With our busy schedules, finding the time to exercise is one of the biggest challenges for many of us. If you need help putting together an exercise program specific to your requirements, contact us as our exercise physiologists can offer face to face or telehealth consult. Do we really need to spend an hour in the gym to see results and improve our fitness, mental health, and more? What does the research show? 🤔 Check the article here: https://www.themanual.com/fitness/how-many-minutes-of-strength-training-boosts-mental-health/

Interesting to see what women’s gyms were like in the 1960s!
They even did resistance training! 😳

As you age, physical activity can help mitigate mood disorders by helping support bodily and cognitive health. Exercise options exist for all ability levels. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), by 2030, around 1 in 6 people worldwide will be over age 60, and about 14% of older adults live with a mental health condition, the most common of which are depression and anxiety. 🧠

Research shows that regular exercise can positively affect cognitive and mental health, helping the brain remain sharper for longer and lowering the chance of developing other chronic conditions. 🙌 Read on to learn more about the link between exercise and improved mental health in older age, how much to exercise, and other ways to help strengthen your mind and brain: https://www.healthline.com/health/how-does-exercise-help-the-elderlys-mental-wellbeing
