Strength training after 50 does more than protect muscle and bone—it may also protect your heart.
In this episode of the Functional Longevity Podcast, Chris Borda breaks down a 2026 systematic review and meta-analysis of 60 studies involving 1,931 postmenopausal women. The research found that resistance training improved resting heart rate and blood pressure—using programs as simple as 2–3 strength workouts per week.
You’ll learn why strength training becomes even more important after menopause, why walking and cardio alone aren’t enough, and how strength training, cardio, protein, and creatine can work together to help you stay strong, healthy, and independent as you age.
Strength training isn’t just about muscle. It’s about protecting your ability to keep doing the things you love—and potentially protecting your heart at the same time.
