Pull ahead of the well-toned crowd in this amazing 20 minute on-line pull workout, focusing entirely on strength-training PULL exercises – those where the muscles contract when weight is being pulled towards your body. Using heavy dumbbells and an optional resistance band (bonus: if you’ve got a pull-up bar, you’ll get to use it. Woot woot!), you’ll get lots of work on the back, biceps, shoulders, and legs (and even some pull exercises for abs), with the rest of those beautiful, toned muscles gettin’ some love as well. And the last set has a surprise included. Git it done!

If it feels like getting up from the ground gets harder and harder as you age, you are not alone! It is a common physical skill that many of us lose as we age. But great news: this 30-min strength training and stretching session is filled with exercises to help keep us strong so that when we’ve fallen down, we can more easily get back up. So if you are an active older adult, try adding this all-levels workout to your weekly routine. You CAN (and should) get up to press play on this one!

If your body’s going through all the changes, it’s time to shake those hormones up a bit. This short, sweet, and super sweat-soaked HIIT workout is so good to do during menopause because of its fast pace, its variety of heavy dumbbell strength exercises, and the addition of bodyweight-only cardio moves peppered in. You’ll torch tons of those pre, present, and post-menopausal calories (or really any life stage calories) when you hit play!
