Do you want to tone up right? I went to my Trainer and said I want to tone up. He laughed at me and said that is BS. He gave me these fun facts about toning up. 1. There is not one exercise that just tones up a particular body part. 2. In order to tone up you have to lose body fat and increase your lean muscle. 3. You need to eat adequate protein spaced out throughout the day. 4. You can’t just do exercises to only lose belly fat. Even though to be honest that would be good because the fat distribution seems to change somewhat during this magical midlife phase right? 5. Sure Lorraine Keto diet works intermittent fasting works and all that stuff works but only because you are more likely to be in a calorie deficit. Well that told me right? Of course there are the amazing benefits of working out for physical health such as minimising the muscle loss and bone density loss that can happen at midlife. However, exercise is all about (for me anyway), what it does for my mental and emotional health. This is why I have started to put more exercise and fitness on my page for you dear rebrand community. I am extremely keen to pass on the amazing benefits of a regular exercise routine especially now In midlife . Do you want energy? You’re lacking energy because you’re tired? Well the funny thing is that exercise actually gives you more energy. You just have to push yourself to start. What stops you from exercising in midlife? #dumbbellworkout #midlife
