Myth: Women over 55 can’t build upper body strength.
Anne is in her 50s and just hit 4 pull-ups (with light assistance).
Most people assume strength declines automatically with age.
The truth?
Strength declines when you stop training it.
With the right approach, you can build muscle, improve bone density, and stay capable for decades.
It’s not about lifting heavy on day one.
It’s about consistency.
Start where you are.
