Skipping Strength Training? Time to Change That.

I wish I could tell you that riding bikes is enough, but you also NEED to strength train. If you want to keep riding strong (and feeling great) for years to come, this NEEDS to be part of the mix. In this episode of the Biking Wellness Podcast, we’re tackling one of the most resisted (yet most important) habits for women who ride: lifting weights.

You’ll hear:

Why strength training is especially critical for women as we age
What kind of strength training workouts women who bike should do
My personal journey from “please no” to “OK fine, I’ll do it”
Practical tips to start small, stay safe, and build consistency

If you want to improve your biking performance, prevent injury, support healthy weight loss, and be strong for years to come this is the episode for you.

And hey—if strength training has felt overwhelming, I get it. I used to hate it too. But there are ways to make it work for your life, your body, and even your schedule. Tune in for a whole lot of honesty about what it really takes to add strength training into your routine.

And, if you’re listening in July/August 2025, now’s your chance to explore coaching with me! I’m offering individual coaching, and I have just a few spots left!
