Necessity is the mother of invention. Fitness enthusiast, personal trainer and powerlifter Molly Galbraith saw a need for women who enjoy being strong to come together to form a community around strength training and that is how Girls Gone Strong came into being. What started as an online support community has evolved into an organization focused on education, specifically on the science of strength training not just for women, but for all genders. Molly and the Girls Gone Strong team have created two ground-breaking education programs, the Women's Coaching Specialist and the Pre-post Natal Coaching Specialist, to teach personal trainers the proper science behind exercise program design for these specific populations. Molly discusses the need for evidence-based, gender-specific exercise programs, how this has changed the fitness industry and offers an important lesson on the benefits of strength training for all aspects of life. It's all about the life-changing benefits of strength training on this episode of All About Fitness.
