If you’re a midlife woman who knows strength training matters but can’t figure out how the heck to fit it in, this episode is for you. Jessica talks with longtime fitness instructor and midlife mom Judy Truong, who’s all about making strength training doable—no gym, no childcare, no special gear required.

Judy shares creative ways to squeeze strength into your day, how to start if you’re not sure where to begin, and why small efforts matter more than you think.

We cover:

✔️ Why strength training doesn’t have to mean deadlifting 200 pounds

✔️ How to sneak fitness into everyday moments—at the park, at your desk, even at the airport

✔️ What “progressive overload” really means

✔️ The difference between strength and endurance training

✔️ What exercises matter most for real-life function

✔️ How to shift your mindset around fitness, especially if you feel like “it’s too late” or “you don’t have time”
