I’ve been at this body recomposition thing for over two years now and I have to admit, even I get a little shocked at the changes. 😅 Listen, if even I can build up some muscle and tighten up my skin at 73 years old, you can to. The key is consistency . Trust me, I AM NOT PERFECT! Far from it! 😆😆 👵👵👵 . . I am always getting in trouble with my daughter @yourhealthyhedonista for not eating enough vegetables or mixing up my macros. BUT I keep trying, I take every day with a grain of salt and a dash of sweat. I try to really lift hard at the gym but I also know when I need to see my chiropractor. I still spend lots of times with my friends and my hobbies. I really try to stay balanced. 🙏 Just stay on track and go at your own pace. Don’t ever stop. This is for YOU 💗💗 . My daughter tells me we will be putting together three months worth of programs for beginners when I’m in Tulum June 12th. These will be available as e-Books on her website . If there is anything you want to know about or have me talk about, please start asking now so I can address it in these little books and videos. I hope all of this will help you as much as I’ve been helped. 🙏 . Have a wonderful day everybody. Be proud of yourself. Make yourself proud through your actions. Chose optimism. Smile inside and on the outside. Love yourself. Live! 🦋🦋🦋 . . #transformation #age #ageing #grandma #fitspiration

A behind the scenes from a YouTube video on make up for us older gals I’ve been working on with Michelle. My little channel will be up by the weekend and I’m nervous and excited at the same time 😅 I couldn’t do it without the help of @fresafuerte who puts it all together for me, or my daughter @yourhealthyhedonista who takes the videos and comes up with the ideas. Thank you girls! 😊🙏 . What kind of videos would you like me to put together this year? Is there anything you’d like me to show you or talk about in particular? I am very new to all of this but I’ll do my best. 💁‍♀️💁‍♀️ . With love, Joan xo . #youtube #howto #fitover70 #newlife #makeover

I tried these for the first time since @yourhealthyhedonista put them into my program. They are hard! 😅 Reverse Hack Squats: you wont need a lot of weight. Position yourself with your feet flat so that you can drop down nice and low. I have pretty banged up knees (one knee was replaced a few years back). Michelle wants me training my legs with as much deep knee bending as I can handle as she believes that this will improve my knee health and keep my range of motion high. I have to admit it’s been working! 3 years ago I could never have done this kind of movement. It’s not over til it’s over kiddies! I’m also using some knee sleeves to help give my old joints some cushion and boy these are amazing! They are hard to put on but once they are on I feel like I have brand new knees (almost 😅). . Have a happy holiday season!! I just looked at the e-book that @jeanjacquesbarrett is working on for us and it is looking great! It will be available in January. . #bodybuilding #glutes #fitover70 #inspo #girlswholift #girlswhosquat #girlswithmuscle.
