Rebuilding Mum & Dad: See them Transform with 9 Months of Strength Training in their 80s!

What happens when two people in their 80s start lifting weights for the first time? Nine months later — the results are astonishing. In this latest episode of Rebuilding Mum & Dad, you’ll see how my 82-year-old mum and 81-year-old dad have transformed their strength, mobility, and confidence through progressive barbell training — coached online by a physical therapist. And there is a magical moment as my mum, Rhoda, takes a walk she could have only dreamed of back in January. #strengthjourney #healthyaging #inspiration Watch the next update    • My Parents' Astounding Results from 1 Year...   Click the series playlist to watch previous episodes    • Rebuilding Mum and Dad: My Parents' Streng...   About Me I’m Clare Johnston — a journalist in my 50s on a mission to share the best information and advice on how to age well, look and feel great for longer. ✅ Subscribe & Join Subscribe for new weekly episodes →    / thehonestchannel   Join The Honest Channel for perks and extra content →    / @thehonestchannel   Articles & insights from me → http://www.honest.scot Sign up for my monthly newsletter → https://mailchi.mp/honest/the-honest-... 🛍️ Shop My Recommendations If you're looking for a place to start, read The Barbell Prescription https://amzn.to/4pXfKnH SPOTTED BLOUSE WORN IN TODAY'S EPISODE https://go.shopmy.us/p-30371332 MY SKINCARE ROUTINE → https://shopmy.us/collections/243245 HEALTHY AGING TOOLS WE USE → https://shopmy.us/collections/408665 BROWSE MY FULL SKIN, HEALTH & STYLE RECOMMENDATIONS https://shopmy.us/shop/TheHonestChannel (I use affiliate links which means I earn a small commission on purchases made through my links but I will ALWAYS be HONEST about it).
