In this not-to-be-missed episode of Healthy Her, host Amelia Phillips welcomes none other than Joan and Michelle MacDonald – the mother-daughter duo behind the global fitness phenomenon that is Train with Joan!

After many years struggling with health and mobility issues, Joan started training at the age of 70(!), under the watchful eye of her women’s fitness coach and bodybuilder daughter. The transformation was truly life-changing, and Michelle and Joan have gone on to inspire millions of other women with the Train with Joan fitness platform – and an educational Instagram account with over 2.3 million followers!

If you've ever felt you're too old, too unfit, or too tired and sore to start strength training, this conversation is the invitation you need to shake things up and start reaping the benefits of being fit and strong – into your 70s and beyond. 

About the guests:

Joan and Michelle MacDonald are a Canadian mother-daughter duo and the founders of Train With Joan, a global fitness and healthy ageing movement. Joan's remarkable transformation began at age 70 under the guidance of her daughter Michelle, a fitness and nutrition coach, competitive bodybuilder and transformation specialist. Together, they have inspired millions of women around the world to embrace strength training, healthy ageing and sustainable lifestyle change, proving it's never too late to transform your health.
