 "I feel more confident wherever I go. I feel stronger... I stand taller. I just now have a different air about me."In this inspiring episode of The Never Too Old to Lift podcast, host Chris interviews Elizabeth, who transformed from a self-described "happy couch potato" into an avid lifter and strength advocate in her late 60s.Elizabeth shares her remarkable journey that began at age 66 with a knee injury and a falls prevention evaluation. What started as physical therapy for a torn meniscus evolved into a passion for strength training that completely changed her life. A lifelong avoider of exercise who "hated sweating", Elizabeth found herself unexpectedly falling in love with deadlifts and squats.Listen as Elizabeth candidly discusses how strength training has improved her health conditions, including better diabetes control, while giving her newfound confidence and community. She details her transition from rehabilitation to training at a powerlifting gym, volunteering with a women's lifting initiative that teaches middle school girls about strength, and preparing for her first competition.This conversation explores how it's never too late to reinvent yourself and discover physical empowerment, even when—especially when—it comes from the most unexpected places. Elizabeth's story proves that strength training isn't just for the young and already-fit, but can be transformative at any age.
