It’s so true! I am trying to convince my bf’s mom (who is 58) that she isn’t too old to lift weights and get great results!
This is so very true! I’ve been working out for the past year and doing Hatha Yoga every day for 2 months.
I feel SO much better AND I have more energy than I did when I was younger.
So, eat right and MOVE! You’ll thank yourself for it!
By the way–I 53 and am postmenopausal.
