Never Too Old To Start Strength Training

Did you realize that all of the excuses of being too old to lift and get strong is really a bunch of bull crap? When I hear from people that they're too old to learn how to do a pull-up or lift a heavy weight, I cringe inside. I just want to shake them up a bit and find out where they got this hogwash information from. Why do people tell themselves these false stories?

I am constantly amazed and impressed at how genuine you are and the amount of knowledge and experience you are so willing to share. Even though it was a long, packed day, I came away energized and with so many immediately applicable tips, cues, corrections and information. I even had a few “a-ha” moments with my own technique. There is nothing like having the eyes of a master on you to raise the level of your own skill. You have bee n hugely instrumental in my growth as a kettlebell enthusiast all the way through now to being a Kettlebell coach. It was an honor and dream for me to get to share space with you. Denice and Beth can attest to that as I didn’t stop talking about it all weekend :-) All in all, that honestly was one of the highlights of my en...
