  I’m 69 and have started resistance training with a personal trainer 10 weeks ago. I’m seeing improvements all round but I am feeling particularly empowered by &nbsp;having taken charge of my own health in several ways. It does however occur to me that I am so fortunate to be able to afford to pay for a personal trainer once a week and most of my friends are not able to do this.<br><br>For some reason I hit upon a thought process that made me realise that I am afford 33 weeks with the trainer for the same cost as 1 week in a care home so even financially it seems like a good plan!

  Ruth I M loving your channel! I have begun lifting weights in earnest. I am 54 and very concerned about investing in bone health and mobility. I practice Iyengar yoga, but was not engaging in meaningful resistance training. I have noticed a great difference in my strength, endurance, confidence in the past six months since we invested in a functional trainer machine that I can use here at home. It has made all the difference in creating accessibility. Thank you for what you’re putting on the Internet. We need more influencers like you.❤

  Focusing on a protein-rich breakfast and daily movement are the most practical takeaways for staying strong after 50.

  My small thing is that I’m trying to journal more. Stress is a pretty major thing for me.

  Thanks for your videos. I really struggle to find motivation to do resistance training despite knowing how important it is. Paying for exercise is not an option for me, so I rely on YouTube and self discipline, of which the latter is unfortunately a patchy performer.
