The What, When and Why to Exercise for Women Over 40

Thyroid Strong

Today I have on a dear friend, Debra Atkinson, Hormone Balancing Exercise Coach and founder of Flipping 50 to chat about the what, when, and why to exercise for women over 40 years old. She’s a 39-year Fitness Expert who has helped over 250,000 women “flip” their 2nd half with vitality and energy they want.

Bestselling author of You Still Got It, Girl: The After 50 Fitness Formula for Women; Navigating Fitness After 50 and Hot, Not Bothered, Debra hosts Flipping 50 TV and the Flipping 50, and She Means Fitness Business podcasts.

A TEDx speaker, she’s a subject matter expert recognized by the American Council on Exercise, AARP, Washington Post, Prevention Magazine, and USA Today to name a few.

Her Tedx talk is titled Everything Women in Menopause Learned About Exercise May Be a Lie.

She’s creator of the first and only exclusively made-for-menopause fitness membership in the world and the Flipping 50 Menopause Fitness Specialist course for fitness and health coaches. Flipping 50’s message is there is no bigger health influencer in the world than a midlife woman. She's the host of an upcoming online event, The What, When & Why to Exercise for Women 40+
