Rebuilding Mum & Dad: Setbacks and BIG Wins As They Get Strong in Their 80s | Episode 5

Описание: Find out how, despite illness and injury, my parents are still getting stronger in their 80s!
Our Rebuilding Mum & Dad series follows my parents’ strength training journey as they aim to improve their mobility and protect their independence and quality of life in their 80s.
In this episode, there have been setbacks and big wins which you'll hear them discuss with strength coach Chris Reis. And you'll see my dad lift his age in kilos, and my mum walk even further and faster, seven months after starting to work out twice a week with a barbell.
