“Mother Nature is just dishing out challenge after challenge for us at this stage of my life as a woman,” the TV personality said in an interview about wellness and fitness with News.
Burke, who turned 53 in September, has added compound exercises and heavier weights to her exercise program. Women tend to shy away from the latter.
The reason I want to talk about this right away is that most ladies are terrified of big weights. Additionally, there’s a misconception that we’ll become clumsy. False.

:I discovered—I’m in my 50s—that nobody gave us menopause education or advised us to start weightlifting. Bone density is the reason weight training is necessary. It’s osteoporosis, or bone health. It causes hormonal changes. It increases your metabolic rate. It forges strength. You can get more coordinated as a result, enabling us to achieve other things.
It’s advised by the former “Dancing with the Stars” presenter not to deprive your body of what it needs, food.
