We’ve heard the experts tell us the importance of maintaining muscle mass and strength training as we age. But, for some of us, it may feel like this advice came too late in life. Today’s guest is here to share that it’s never too late to focus on building and maintaining muscle and becoming active.
Today, on the Dhru Purohit Show, Dhru sits down with competitive athlete Virginia (“Ginny”) MacColl to discuss the biggest myths about fitness as we age. Ginny shares her strength training journey, reversing her osteopenia and ultimately becoming the oldest person to complete an American Ninja Warrior obstacle at 71. She also shares how her training has led her to focus on her protein intake and diet, as well as tips for beginners looking to become more active regardless of age.
