I highly recommend you find yourself on skis in this winter ❄️ If you do, be sure to stop and say hello 👋 to the girl in the black jacket, with blue skis, a long ponytail and a huge smile. She may be talking to the deer 🦌

💪 Stop wishing for it — start working for it.

Want visible muscle in midlife? It takes more than a list of exercises and 3 sets of 10. You need to understand how muscle is built — through things like progressive overload, tempo, rest, and the magic that happens when you lengthen a muscle under load.

This is the difference between going through the motions and training with intention.

✨ This is why I teach lifting rather than just lead classes.

If you’re ready to learn how to lift for real results, get in touch and stay tuned for live classes in Ottawa area locations soon.

Strength training is important for everyone, but there seems to be even more reason why diabetics should include strength training into their routine.⁠
⁠
A 2016 study investigated the effect of regular exercise training on insulin sensitivity in adults with type 2 diabetes.⁠
⁠
The exercise group was completing 3 sessions of strength training weekly, and there was a significant improvement in insulin sensitivity in this group. ⁠
⁠
This positive benefit persisted when insulin sensitivity was measured more than 72 hours after the last exercise session!⁠
⁠
How could you add strength training in to your routine?⁠

The goal of training isn't to make you tired, it's to make you better.

For too long women have been treating exercise like every workout is a calorie burn that is only effective if it feels hard.

This is counterproductive and potentially self destructive. The main benefits of exercise come from the compounding effects of consistent steady effort over years.

When women push every session, they often lose perspective of what moderate effort feels like, they compound more fatigue than they can meaningfully recover from, and they can't exercise as frequently for fatigue, aversion and injury. Trying to then "make up for lost time" with a return to hard efforts means this cycle is on neverending repeat.

Slow down, work at your actual level, not where you think you should be. I promise you will be further ahead a year from now than if you keep up the "harder is better" approach.

I am an educator and a healer. As a physician trained in Internal Medicine, I understand the science of diagnosing and treating disease. But I also recognize the flaws in traditional medicine:  it focuses on treating illness rather than preserving health, creating dependence instead of aut
