Hi Reader
Welcome back to 1UP,
my weekly newsletter where I share all things health and mindsets to help you get stronger, feel younger and live longer.
Go to the gym, but to do what?
Are you in your 40s and feel bummed out when you look at yourself in the mirror?
You don't recognize yourself and wonder if you will ever be able to lose that belly and feel strong again.
I'm here to tell you that weight loss is a losing battle.
In your 40s, it's time to shift to a different approach: body composition.
Focusing on your muscle-to-fat ratio is the key to finally get the body you long for.
There are two parts to this equation: losing fat - especially visceral fat! - and building muscle.
And in this week's episode, we talk about adding muscle 💪
Look, in your 40s, it's time to invest in building up muscle.
Strength training is a non-negotiable for those who want to live an awesome life
I share what I do in the gym and the principles I have used that have allowed to :
❇️Put on 5.5 lbs of muscle in 1 year (not bad for a 43 year old woman)
❇️Go from 24% body fat to 20% - Ideal for women!
❇️Become stronger than I was in my 20s!
❇️Choose the right type of exercise at the gym, without the fluff
When you apply what I share in this episode, you will be able to make your workout more efficient, maximize the gains and troubleshoot your plateaus so that you don't lose time on your way to a better body composition.

And I have to say, I am not a trainer. I made some mistakes along the way.
Mistakes that are very common for people who are trying to lose weight.
I decided to share these mistakes in next week's episode (It drops on Monday!) because when YOU avoid them, you will get faster results.
Once I corrected these mistakes, I gained muscle in just 3 months.
That's why I will be giving you the short cut.
