If you're stressed and trying to lose weight, ditch the treadmill for a week and replace it with #yoga or long walks. High intensity exercise can spike cortisol higher in already stressed bodies, blocking fat loss. #CortisolControl #StressLess #WalkForWellness #FatLossOver40

Your legs hold the largest muscles in your body. Working them releases the most growth hormone and testosterone. Exercises include squats, lunges, deadlifts, step-ups, and hamstring curls. Leg day is a hormonal super-booster - don't skip it. #LegDay #FitnessOver40

Stretching is non-negotiable as temperatures drop. Cold muscles are tight muscles. Before you head out, or right after you wake up, spend 5 minutes on dynamic stretching. Your joints will thank you. #Flexibility #Mobility #HealthTip #FitnessOver40

Swap out your basic green salad for a warm harvest bowl. Roasted root veggies (carrots, beets), massaged kale, a simple grain like farro, and a sprinkle of pistachios or walnuts. It’s an easy way to get your vitamins when it’s chilly. #EatTheRainbow #SeasonalEating #Wellness
