10 habits for body recomp I’ll never stop doing, no matter how old I get.

Some of these might surprise you, and a few might make you a little mad. Many of us write off things like jumping, sprinting, or lifting heavy once we hit our 40s and beyond, assuming they’re “not for us anymore.” But they may be exactly what we need to build muscle, protect bone health, and keep our metabolism healthy through perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.

In this video, I share why I’ll always aim for 10,000 steps even though research says you get most of the benefit sooner, why impact training matters more than you think (and how to start safely if jumping scares you), and why I’ll never stop eating foods I simply love. I also cover why both heavy lifting and high rep work belong in your training, plus the mindset shift that finally stopped my yo-yo progress.

These habits will evolve as I age. They’ll look different in my 60s than they do now. But in some form, they’re staying in my routine for life.

Which habits are on your “never stop” list? Let me know in the comments.
