S3 Ep 23 Stronger At 60: Mindset, Muscles, And The Truth About Aging Well with Heike Yates
Friday, 14 November, 2025
Send us a textForget the anti-aging hype—let’s talk about getting strong enough to live the life you want. Coach and author Heike Yates joins us to unpack what midlife really means, why it isn’t a number, and how to trade comparison and guilt for confidence and capacity. We go deep on the mindset shifts that matter, the workouts that keep you independent, and the practical tools that help you reset without starting over.Heike shares her powerful transition from high-mileage runner to fast hiker, swimmer, and cyclist after chronic knee pain. You’ll hear how she honored the grief of losing a former identity, then built a new one anchored in curiosity and function. We talk real midlife training: strength work as a non-negotiable, protein as a daily priority, and the surprising role your upper body and core play in running efficiency and posture. If you’ve been told to avoid heavy weights or fear “bulking,” this conversation will change your mind.We also tackle the quiet saboteurs: people-pleasing, overwork, and the guilt that steals your training time. Heike’s take is crisp—time for yourself is essential, boundaries protect your health, and “no” is a complete sentence. You’ll learn how to choose the smallest next step, spot the right metric for progress, and design a routine that adapts to your season of life. From a 99-year-old client building balance to an 80-year-old reclaiming autonomy, the stories here prove it’s never too late to get stronger and feel like yourself.If you’re ready to ditch the myths and build a body—and mindset—that lasts, press play.
