Do you feel like you're just "not a gym person"? You're not alone. Many adults over 50 believe that strength training isn't for someone like them - that they've left it too late, or that lifting weights is only for the young and already-fit. Never Too Old to Lift exists to change that belief. Hosted by Chris Tiley, a physiotherapist with 15+ years of experience, this podcast shows you that strengt... more

I enjoy listening and learning from this podcast. As an “older PT” who has had limited training in weight lifting and one who works with older adults in skilled nursing, I am excited to personally embark on a dedicated strength training journey and to educate and reinforce to my clients the importance of strength training for optimal aging.
I didn’t have a clue where to start. I had always tried and failed to get started in my weightlifting journey. I knew it was the best thing I could do for myself, but that was it. Chris has taught me so much and answered so many questions. Each episode is no nonsense and packed with valuable advise. I am lifting and learning and getting stronger for life.
After injuring myself earlier in the year lifting weights I’ve realised I did too much too soon. This podcast has been such a wealth of information on how to start lifting and progress safely and is making me feel much more confident in how to go about things this time round . I have just ordered the Never too old to Lift book from Amazon and am excited to start!

Great introduction Chris and I am really looking forward to learning and listening to all your guests (and thank you for inviting me to be part of this great podcast series). I have just finished listening to the nutrition and supplements episode. There is always something new to learn or tip to pick up and Catriona was easy to listen to with a no nonsense approach which is refreshing and easy to understand. I will certainly be saving that episode as a point of reference.
