Elaine Reynolds is a master personal trainer and yoga teacher. She teaches women over 50 to not give up or give in with the crazy things happening to our bodies. She had an epiphany at 50 and bought a one way ticket to Bali, where she lives now.

- Issues that older women are grappling with in midlife

- Menopause, aging and fitness

- The importance of strengthening and stabilising muscles around joints to support aging bodies and improve recovery from injuries

- Incorporating dynamic movements like yoga, barre, pilates, functional strength training, and low-impact cardio into workouts to lengthen the body and improve overall fitness

- The importance of changing exercise habits after 50 to prioritize how one feels

- Pain management and exercise for women in their 50s and beyond

- The importance of glute strength

- Knee problems and fascial release
