Now, I hope I would never have to choose to do a single workout forever (it would lose effectiveness very quickly!) but the type of workout would be this! In order to move well the rest of our lives we DO want and need to include functional movement with balance, rotation, anti-rotation built in. So for those of you who can’t go heavy, focus on all the good you CAN do. If you can go heavy, insert workouts featuring unilateral work between – even yoga can be a very functional workout!

It’s brand new!! We’re watching Iowa Womens basketball 🏀!!
Great tips. You have given me so much to think about.
One of the biggest points that stood out to me was when you talked about how we do life; we push and pull with one arm and how we workout so we should workout in the way we live so life gets easier. Wow! So profound.
Thank you.
Thank you you’re gorgeous!
Great information, it’s so much easier getting older with guidance from you
So helpful! Thank you!
I do Mon, Tue, Thu, Fri upper/lower split and feel like I recover fine. I am 61. Am I somehow doing myself a disservice? Thanks for your content.
What great tips! Thank you! I plan to tweak my routine immediately, because these ideas make such good sense.
Makes a lot of sense. I am getting stronger and healthier and want to keep this up beyond my 70s which I’ll soon be entering into. Yes knee osteoarthritis and shoulder impingement (at times) but generally can do quite a lot. I like this idea greatly. I also love the idea of doing so at first on a Wed. as I do dumbbells/bands on Mon. and Fri. Thanks for the super helpful ideas.
I just want to say thank you for all you do I found you through j j virgin and may god bless you.
You made my day! Thank you soo much! #youstillgotitgirl
