The Secret To Midlife Fitness
There’s endless advice—from every corner of the internet, your friends and gym buddies—about how to work out in midlife: change your routine, get your strength training in during perimenopause, get your heart rate up, walk more, run more, do more. But how do you stay motivated to exercise at all? Personal trainer and menopause fitness expert Samantha Montpetit-Huynh (better known as Sam Core Trainer) joins Maureen Halushak in the Group Chat this week to talk about fitness in your 40s, changing how you view exercise (it’s not all about weight loss!) and the secret to staying consistent.
Plus, FASHION senior fashion, beauty and wellness editor Julia McEwan and Today’s Parent editor-in-chief Vanessa Grant enter the chat to talk about their favourite ways to work out, and how that’s changed over the years.
