Strong Over Skinny: The Midlife Mindset Shift

The scale is a terrible boss. Fire it.

The quick explanation
Body composition (muscle vs. fat) matters far more than weight in midlife. Strong, capable bodies look different than 'thin.' They also outlive them.
Why this matters
Chasing skinny in midlife often means losing muscle. Chasing strong means longevity, energy, and confidence.
Tiny action step
Pick one strength metric to track for 4 weeks (push-ups, squats, plank time).
