One of the most common reasons you might be reluctant to follow a strength training program is the belief that unless you do 100% of the workouts, it's not worth doing. Is that a realistic outlook? How can a lifting program benefit you even if you don't complete 100% of the session?

In this episode of the Fuel Your Strength Podcast, you'll hear about a powerful behavior change strategy to make consistently following a program easier.

I'm Steph Gaudreau, NASM-CPT, Certified Sports Nutritionist from the International Society of Sports Nutrition (CISSN), Certified Menopause Coaching Specialist (GGS), and athlete over 40.
