Beyond the physical gains, such as improved bone density, hormonal balance, and overall health, strength training cultivates a unique sense of mental resilience and personal empowerment. Unlike purely aerobic exercise, lifting weights offers stability, balance, and structural protection that can prevent injury and promote functional longevity well into older age. Strength training doesn't require lifting heavy from the beginning; rather, it encourages a personalized, steady approach that's adaptable to one's capabilities and fitness level, fostering both physical strength and self-confidence as goals are met and surpassed. The benefits extend far beyond muscle; weight training encourages inner strength, discipline, and the ability to handle life's challenges with resilience.In this bonus episode for premium subscribers, April emphasizes that building physical strength contributes to psychological strength and that training is beneficial for long-term health and overall vitality. And in this special premium subscriber exclusive, our very own Sasha, a weightlifting enthusiast herself, invites April to evaluate her deadlift. April generously brings her own depth of experience and eye for detail, insightfully critiquing Sasha's powerlifting form, sharing practical guidance and a few tips.Watch our full length episode with April Hutchinson: https://www.widerlenspod.com/p/episode-190For instructions on setting up a private feed to listen to our premium content in your favorite podcast app, visit https://www.widerlenspod.com/p/how-to-listen-to-our-full-premium.

IPF Powerlifter Team Canada X3 North American Deadlift Holder #1 Worlds 2022 -2nd Deadlift “I was born in Toronto and raised in London, Ontario, and my journey is a testament to passion and resilience. Growing up in an athletic family, I was introduced to power skating by my father at the age of 5. Athletics ran in my blood; my grandfather, though drafted by the NHL Montreal Canadiens, faced health setbacks that prevented him from realizing his dreams. From track and field to tennis, ringette to basketball, I thrived in sports, always fueled by an unyielding competitive spirit. My life took a dark turn when I battled alcoholism for most of my years, culminating in a near-death experience in 2018 and a subsequent suicide attempt. Emerging from the depths, I chose a different path, embracing sobriety and channeling my energy into powerlifting. Little did I know that within a year, I would become a national champion, even facing the world stage and securing the North American deadlift record. Yet, my journey took a turn towards advocacy. In the midst of my powerlifting success, I witnessed a trans-identifying male athlete entering women's categories. This revelation ignited a passion within me to champion fairness in women's sports. I became one of the few outspoken Canadian athletes advocating for women's safety and fair competition. In the past year, I've made appearances on media platforms ranging from Tucker Carlson to Piers Morgan. My advocacy has prompted the International Powerlifting Federation to pressure the Canadian Powerlifting Union to reassess their transgender policy, urging the inclusion of testosterone monitoring.” @april.hutchinson https://www.aprilhutchinson.com/all-my-links Watch on YouTube: https://bit.ly/3opNURn PATREON: patreon.com/brassandunity - - - - - - - - - - - - SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS H.V.M.N - 20% off with code BRASS20 - https://hvmn.com/pages/home Mindful Meds - 15% off with code BRASS - https://mindfulmeds.io Brass & Unity - 20% off with code UNITY - http://brassandunity.com Three Horses Hat Co - 15% off with code BRASS - https://threehorseshatco.com/ Combat Flip Flops - 25% off with code UNITY - https://combatflipflops.com - - - - - - - - - - - - - SHOP B&U Jewelry & Eyewear: https://brassandunity.com - - - - - - - - - - - - - Follow #brassandunity - - - - - - - - - - - - - CHARITY Honour House - https://www.honourhouse.ca Vet Solutions - https://vetsolutions.org Heroic Hearts - https://www.heroicheartsproject.org Warrior Angels Foundation - https://warriorangelsfoundation.org All Secure Foundation - http://allsecurefoundation.org Defenders of Freedom -https://www.defendersoffreedom.us The Boot Campaign - https://bootcampaign.org
