Real Health podcast: Five smarter ways to get Fit at 50 with bestselling author Caroline Idiens
Caroline Idiens, bestselling author of Fit at 50, fitness in midlife expert and personal trainer joins me on this week's episode of The Real Health podcast.
I began by asking Caroline Idiens how she started her online business. She told me, 'When Covid hit, I thought, 'no one's gonna train online but we started with 30 clients in April 2020. On good old Zoom and it just exploded, like literally exploded and people started to join and that's when I got the Instagram account and we turned five years old two weeks ago.'
The bestselling author had some great advice for starting out on your fitness journey. She explained, 'In the book we talk about walking because I think it's the most underrated of any exercise and we say to people, if you haven't got kit just get outside for a bit. Doesn't need to be hours. Get outside for 15, 30 minutes, but go with a friend. Go into nature, try to leave your phone behind.'
