Why does muscle become more important after 40? 💜

Because it’s not just about how you look. It’s about how you feel, move and live.

Stronger, not smaller.

Maybe we need to rethink what we’re actually aiming for.

Not a smaller body.
Not a smaller dress size.
Not constantly trying to eat less, weigh less or take up less space.
