Aging Backwards???

Aging Backwards???

Today is January 25, 2018. It's my birthday!

I'm foh-tay. You know ...18 with 22 years experience...  14,600 days old ... two 20 year olds combined.
Here are some of my reflections on turning 40 ...

Is 40 the new 20? If you asked me that 1.5 years ago, I would have said NO because my body felt like it was 60 years old. I had so many muscle imbalances because I had been using all the wrong muscles for over 30 years. As a result, I had severe right knee pain, chronic left low back pain, poor mobility in my left shoulder, jumping incontinence and an asymmetrical appearance. I couldn't do any pull-ups, I couldn't air squat because of my knee pain and I'd pee my pants every time I jumped rope. Take a look at my crooked before (early 2016) and my after (late 2017).


I decided to go back to school to learn how to fix my imbalances. And it worked! A year and a half later, I can hold handstands, do weighted pull-ups and deadlift 265 pounds for reps. And I'm pain-free! I look and feel balanced, strong, and confident. I weigh in at 140 pounds and 5'6". My 40 year old body FEELS better than it did when I was 20.

 


Combining my new approach to training with my approach to intermittent fasting has been a powerful anti-aging combination for me. Is 40 the new 20? Yes it is! My body never looked this good when I was in my 20s. Heck, I didn't even look this good when I was dieting hard and competing at 120 pounds in PRO bikini competitions!

 

And NO, I'm no longer on a restrictive diet. I eat 2000 calories a day and >250 grams of carbs a day, including bread and licorice. I'm a metabolically active BEAST at 40.
I wish I had known in my 20's and 30's what I know now.

I’m not the same person I used to be. I am mentally and physically stronger. I can do things with my body that I never thought I’d be able to do in a million years. There are no words to describe how empowering that is.

I’m grateful I had nearly every muscle imbalance under the sun. It forced me to learn how to “unf*ck” myself.

Now my passion is helping other people “unf*ck” themselves. So if you have muscle imbalances that are holding you back with your training and activities of daily living, then I’m your girl! I would be honoured and excited to help you.

⚠️⚠️My Strength Academy has launched! It's a home program and it changed my life for the better, and I feel so proud and honoured that I can teach you what I have learned.

I do not diet, nor do I exercise to burn calories. Instead, I used food to fuel my body so I can get stronger and fitter. This is really easy to maintain (because I'm neither depriving myself of food nor punishing myself with cardio). Ironically, my physique has never looked better. Muscle is the secret to shedding fat. You can't grow muscle if you are eating diet calories and doing calorie-burning cardio.

If you want a sustainable solution, or if you need to "unf😮ck yourself", then I'm your girl! I can teach you my Fat Loss Fast System.

p.s. Mom asked me what I wanted for my birthday, and I said, "Grandma's B-day Cake!!! Everyone LOVES this cake. It's low in calories and the icing is chocolate-coffee! OMG! Enough people twisted mom's arm that she was willing to teach everyone Grandma's recipe. Here it is! Enjoy!

 

Thank you for being on this journey to health and strength with me,

Most people don’t realize their posture, tightness, pee leaks, plateaus, and injuries are all connected. That’s where I come in. Hi! I’m Dr. Sara Solomon. I have degrees in physiotherapy (BSc) and dentistry (DMD), and I specialize in helping midlife humans finally understand their body. Inside my Strength Academy, I teach you how to fix what’s actually holding you back: your breathing mechanics, core control, and nervous system ... and then build real strength and mobility on top of it. Strength that transfers to life and badass skills like pull-ups, handstands, splits and Nauli Kriya (yes, that’s a thing 👽). Come for the pain relief. Stay for the unexpected power.
