Can You Build Muscle After 40? (Yes — Here’s How)

Can you build muscle after 40? Yes, and this episode shows you exactly how. This week on You Are Not Broken, Dr. Kelly Casperson sits down with Alicia Erickson to talk about midlife reinvention, strength training, perimenopause, and what happens when women stop trying to get smaller — and start trying to get stronger. If you’ve wondered whether body recomposition is possible in your 40s (building muscle while losing fat), how hormone replacement therapy impacts fitness, or why strength training is non-negotiable during perimenopause — this episode is for you. We also dive into Alicia’s sobriety journey at 45, the connection between alcohol and mental health in midlife, and how lifting heavy became part of her transformation — physically and emotionally. Midlife isn’t the beginning of decline. It’s the beginning of power. You are not broken. You might just need a barbell.
