Training in Your 40s: What I’ve Learned, so far…
Training in Your 40s: Smarter, Not Harder 💥
In your 20s and 30s, you could smash out back-to-back sessions without a second thought. But in your 40s? Training smart beats training hard.
At BOND, our strength and conditioning classes should be seen as two separate sessions—Strength (1) and Conditioning (2). So if you're hitting three Hybrid classes a week, that’s actually six sessions your body is recovering from. Add in life stress, broken sleep, weekend celebrations, and (for some) parenting demands, and it’s no wonder energy levels fluctuate.
The key? Adjust, don’t quit.
✅ Feeling drained? Do just the Strength or Conditioning portion.
✅ Stressed? Dial back the intensity to 60-70% effort.
✅ Running on fumes? Prioritize recovery—hydration, nutrition, and mobility matter.
Training in your 40s isn’t about slowing down—it’s about training smarter so you can stay strong, fit, and capable for years to come. 💪🔥
