    It’s Never Too Late to Get Strong

    Rosemary Nichols didn’t step into a gym until she was 71. Now 86, she’s deadlifting over 200 pounds and setting all-time world records. What began with Zumba Gold and a free personal training session evolved into national competition, world records, and a weekly training volume that would intimidate lifters half her age. In this episode of That Badass Broadcast, we talk about what motivated her to go to the gym at 71; how she got into lifting and what she looked for in a coach—and why not all trainers are the right fit; how she stays injury-free at 86, including mobility, warm-ups, and recovery; what it takes to train seriously later in life; and what she wants other women to understand about starting late—and starting anyway. If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s truly “too late” to get strong, Rosemary is your answer.

    At 69, Linda Franklin is the strongest woman in the world in her age and weight class. She has type 1 diabetes, survived melanoma, and has battled multiple injuries—and just put up her best total ever. And until her early 60s, Linda had never even picked up a barbell.  In this first episode of That Badass Broadcast, we talk about training for longevity, managing setbacks, competing at the highest level, and what it means to keep getting stronger, both physically and mentally.  Whether you're a new lifter or a seasoned competitor, you’ll appreciate this honest conversation about strength, resilience, and showing up—long after most people think it’s “too late.”  Follow Linda on Instagram and YouTube - @Linda.gets.strong  For show notes and past episodes of That Badass Broadcast, visit thatbadassbroad.com/podcast.
