Exercise
Why is exercise so important?
As we move through our 40s and beyond, regular exercise becomes increasingly important – not just for how we look, but for how well we move, feel and function as we age.
Regular exercise will help you:
- Maintain and build muscle, which naturally becomes harder to preserve as we get older.
- Reduce body fat while helping protect valuable lean muscle.
- Keep your bones strong, reducing the risk of osteoporosis as bone density declines with age.
- Protect your heart health by improving cardiovascular fitness, circulation and blood pressure.
- Improve your mood, energy and sleep, while helping to manage stress.
- Stay strong, mobile and independent so you can continue doing the things you enjoy for years to come.
You don’t need to spend hours exercising to get these benefits. A combination of regular strength training, cardio and mobility work will make a huge difference.

Your workouts:
At the beginning of your 4 Week Challenge, you’ll receive your workout plan for the month, with links to all the videos you need.
You’ll have plenty of options to choose from, including:
- HIIT (beginner & advanced options)
- Core
- Circuit using weights (workout of the week)
- Total Body Strength (home option using dumbbells or gym option)
- Yoga, Stretch & Mobility
You’ll also receive a suggested weekly schedule, so you don’t have to work out what to do and when. You can adjust this to suit your fitness level, goals or any injuries.
And if you’d like even more variety, you’ll have access to hundreds of full-length workout videos in the SBF CREW HUB.
