🧐 Did you know that after 50, slowing down muscle loss is about building functional strength and dynamic balance?
🗣️ Incorporating non-traditional movements like the Half-Kneeling Unilateral Lift & Press helps manage sarcopenia (age-related muscle decline) by engaging stabilizer muscles traditional lifts miss.
Key benefits:
✅ Enhances deep core and hip stability
✅ Protects the spine while handling asymmetrical weight💪🏾 There are many variations to accommodate all ages and abilities.

Over the last two years, Asthma has made regular exercise impossible, which of course means managing my weight is more difficult. So I'm back to doing this again to keep mindful of what, and how much, I'm eating every day.
I currently weigh more than I ever have before. Trying to get it under control again is made even harder because I'm getting older, and my body has decided that we're too old for all of this shit.

National Photography Day, modeling from 20s to 50s, and a 60s photo for fun
Age 27. Modeled for a Long & McQuade Music Fender promotion ad, 1991
Modeling was never a full time thing for me, but I dabbled throughout the years.
I’m definitely not model material. I’m short — only 5’2″ and curvy. But in the 1980s there was something called “glam modeling” that welcomed women that weren’t the standard tall and thin. Though back then there was still a standard, you couldn’t be plus size. My waist was only 23″ and I was about 108 pounds.
Age 32, 1996, Outlaw Biker
Age 32. This photo was taken by Outlaw Biker Enterprises publisher, the late Casey Exton. He wanted me on the cover but none of the shots came out that great because Casey grated my nerves. He was a weird boss. Very generous but held me back from opportunities. He wanted me to stay in advertising because I was excellent at it and made him a ton of money, but I wanted to write. Whenever he went on vacation, I’d go into editorial and write. My first music interview with Max from Sepultura was published all over the world in the “In the Flesh” publication! (And I finally did get to be in an ad for the publication, modeling an In the Flesh magazine t-shirt with another girl, Amy). Next I was writing for Tattoo Review and Outlaw Biker. But Casey was mad about it, so I left.
Contact sheets for a modeling contest, summer of 2005. I was 42
Age 42. A professional NYC shoot for a modeling contest. I didn’t win.
In my 50s!
I forgot what year, but I shared these photos here. I think it was right after the pandemic, so late 50s. A photo shoot in praise of older women.
Age 62, last week, taken by my husband
Nothing professional for my 60s yet, so I share this recent photo my husband took last week.
I’m currently seeking a photographer for a project. As a cancer patient in remission, I want to capture the essence of happiness while having health issues. A younger woman, a friend in her 40s, who also has cancer, agreed to model with me for this project. We’re seeking the right person to take photos of us having fun together.
Life is short and you have to do as much as possible.
I never took modeling serious because my heart is in writing. Though I have 6 traditionally published books out in the wild, my heart is with journalism and that’s what I do for the most part. I’m also a public speaker. I have a lucrative cat sitting business with 11 repeat clients and all 5-stars, and I’m a certified relationship coach.
Every time I get an opportunity to do something artistic and creative, I jump on it. I’ve been in a music video, I’ve done a lot of art (even selling some pieces), I’ve had poetry published in Germany, etc.
I love my life’s adventures!
