Women 40+ Should Perform

Women older than 40 experience numerous benefits from regular exercise. Yet, the key component in workouts and strength-training exercises is proper form, which prevents stress onto unintended parts of the body, as well as injuries to the tendons, muscles, and joints.

However, women after 40 should be very careful with their high-intensity impact strength training and start out slow in order to avoid injuries.

Strength training makes the bones of women over the age of 40 denser, which is of high importance, since after menopause, their estrogen levels drop, the hormone that protects their bones.
