Over Zoom from Tulum, she is chatty and engaging. She tells me the transformation didn’t happen overnight, of course, but she was ready for the challenge. “I told Michelle, I don’t want to lose weight fast because I’ll end up gaining it all again.

Next month, Joan will turn 77, and she has no intention of slowing down. “You see people that are in their 40s giving up on their health because they’re going through menopause,” she says, incredulously. “Yes, it’s horrible, but you have a choice.

Each year, the Rdite of the game brings a special Halloween map that lasts from October until November. Change is hard. Doing things differently than you did them before is hard. Making different choices is hard. But in this book that's part self-help and part memoir, you'll learn how Joan made her miraculous transformation as well as how Michelle helped her mother on that journey. But you'll also learn motivation techniques, fitness and nutrition fundamentals, and how to find and contribute to a community of support. Her daughter Michelle lives in Tulum, Mexico so Joan only saw her once or twice a year. When she arrived in Canada to stay for Christmas one year, Michelle - a health and fitness coach - realised Joan was on a slippery slope to becoming less mobile. “My health was really deteriorating,” says Joan. “When Michelle saw how I was, huffing and puffing trying to go upstairs… well, she knew she had to do something.” Due to a game update in October 2021, the word "Age" got filtered, making the game name shown as "Flex Your Account ###". Players spawn on a green, studded baseplate with two conveyors. Along the sides are various towers, rooms, and minigames.The Flex Your Account Age Community Group room requires accounts to be a member of the Flex Your Account Age Community group to enter. I just wanted to write the review before I gave up on it. I’m going to try and finish it but I have to say it is very disappointing. As we get older, our bodies go through many changes, especially physical and mental. Most are out of our control. But for those that aren’t, all we need sometimes is advice about how to make specific, sustainable, and successful decisions that can alter the course of how our lives go from that point forward. The Followers tower is the third tallest tower in the game. Each room is titled "[Number] Followers", with a truss connecting each room. Accounts with too little followers cannot enter certain rooms. For example, an account with 40K followers cannot enter any rooms above "50K followers". This is where Joan MacDonald of Train with Joan comes in. Just a few years ago, this septuagenarian wasn’t happy with how she looked and what she ate. With help from her daughter, Michelle (a certified strength and conditioning specialist), Joan developed exercise and diet goals as well as objectives for how to change her mindset—not just how she saw herself physically but how she felt about herself mentally regardless of her physical fitness or her age.

Bottom line: Joan made a miraculous transformation (helped by Michelle). The book includes motivation techniques, fitness and nutrition fundamentals, and tips on how to “find and contribute to a community of support.” This isn't your typical exercise book or your standard cookbook or your tried-and-true self-help guide. Train With Joan offers fresh, exciting, and engaging ways to get more out of your life. These features One other point. If you’re a fitness writer and you’re expounding that you would like to help others get motivated and stating that you used to be sedentary and obese you need to provide a before picture. This is where Joan MacDonald of Train with Joan comes in. Just a few years ago, this septuagenarian wasn't happy with how she looked and what she ate. With help from her daughter, Michelle (a certified strength and conditioning specialist), Joan developed exercise and diet goals as well as objectives for how to change her mindset--not just how she saw herself physically but how she felt about herself mentally regardless of her physical fitness or her age. The Place Visits tower is the tallest tower in the game. Each room is titled "[Number] Visits", with a truss connecting each room. Accounts with too little visits cannot enter certain rooms. For example, an account with 50K visits cannot enter any rooms above "100K Visits".I enjoyed the overall vibe of this book, and don't regret buying it to satisfy my curiosity. But you need to know this book HAS ABSOLUTELY NO: how-to, what to do, workouts, exercise routines, food lists, what to eat, advice on the actual performance or modification of an exercise, macro calculator, or anything you can actually use. I've followed Joan on IG for years. I was very excited when I received an advanced copy of Flex Your Age to review. The book is full of information from Joan and her daughter, Michelle (@thehealthyhedonista). It was interesting to read about Joan's early life in Canada, her marriage, her career, and her journey to fitness. I've taken her "just try" to heart. Michelle is extremely knowledgeable about fitness and women's fitness specifically. Unless you're brand new to macro counting and weightlifting, you won't gain any additional knowledge, but you will be inspired by these two ladies and the testimonials sprinkled throughout the book. I would have liked to have seen before/after photos instead of just narratives. There is a lot of emphasis on finding a group of like-minded people which is important. Michelle has a program called The Wonder Women which sounds like a dream and is also expensive. Joan has the Train with Joan app which is more affordable and favorably rated. If you're a woman of a certain age who is looking to stop or reverse the aging process, this book is a great start.
