You're showing up and putting in work, so why does it feel like your training just isn't clicking? In this episode, you'll continue through the strength gap series by digging into one of the most common and most misunderstood reasons athletic women over 40 are struggling to see progress: program mismatch...the program you're following was probably never built with someone like you in mind.
You'll learn why so many popular programs (think bodybuilding splits or powerlifting templates) look great on paper but don't fit well for your life when you're juggling a sport, a packed schedule, and it's more challenging to recover. And you'll hear about what a truly matched program accounts for, why switching programs isn't the same as starting over, and what it actually feels like when your training works in harmony with your life.
