In the latest episode of Message Meg, WWL medical reporter Meg Farris sits down with local gym-goers who are flipping the script on fitness after 40, right here in the Crescent City. From busy moms juggling work and family to late-blooming lifters who started strength training later in life, these everyday athletes share how embracing weightlifting transformed their bodies, boosted their confidence and improved their overall well-being. The episode also dives into the science behind strength training, explaining how building muscle increases metabolism and burns fat—without causing the bulky look many fear. https://www.wwltv.com/article/news/health/message-meg/message-meg-stronger-happier-healthier-mag-farris-wwl/289-6b2c7184-f84b-4044-8ce4-5e1fe3250f6c
