Summary:
"It's never too late to change direction! Not too many years ago,
Joan
MacDonald
was a 70-year-old woman who weighed 200 pounds, suffered from many different
health
issues, and feared a future in a nursing home. Her daughter, Michelle, had successfully helped dozens of women in her 'The Wonder Women' program to think about weight, food, and fitness from different perspectives to achieve their
health
goals. So Michelle started
Joan
on the program
--
and the transformation had been remarkable.
Joan
has lost more than 60 pounds, she relies less and less on medication, and she actually looks forward to her trips to the gym. But it wasn't an easy journey. 'Flex Your Age' is a conversation with mother and daughter about how Michelle helped
Joan
find the motivation and encouragement to make changes in her life. But this book isn't just about them. You'll learn the nutrition, exercise, and integration basics you need to not only train with
Joan
but to also train like
Joan
to achieve your own mental and physical
health
goals. "--Back cover.
Joan
MacDonald
is a 75-year-old Instagram fitness influencer who’s undergone a remarkable change in the last five years. She was on medication for high blood pressure and acid reflux; she had terrible edema in her ankles; her arthritis was extremely painful; and she had difficulty walking up and down stairs.
Joan
knew that if she continued on an unhealthy path that it might mean more
health
issues and more medications
--
and probably force her to move into a nursing home. But with the help of her daughter, Michelle, and The Wonder Women community,
Joan
was able to do much more than change her journey
--
she was able to help others on theirs.
