1FitLife Fit & Fabulous Over 40: Fitness Friday with Jane Marcus
The Not Old Better Show, Fitness Friday Interview Series
INTRODUCTION – The Not Old Better Show, Fitness Friday Interview Series
Welcome to The Not Old Better Show, Fitness Friday edition. I’m Paul Vogelzang, and today, we’re cutting through the noise and getting real about health, fitness, and aging strong. If you’ve ever felt like your body is working against you as you hit midlife, or you’re tired of one-size-fits-all health advice that doesn’t actually fit, then you’re in the right place.
My guest today is Jane Marcus—fitness coach, nutrition expert, and the powerhouse behind 1FitLife: Fit & Fabulous Over 40. Jane didn’t just wake up one day as a fitness guru—her journey was filled with frustration, setbacks, and reinvention. From struggling in a new country with jobs that drained her to discovering the power of strength training and building a thriving health business for women over 40, Jane has lived the transformation she now teaches.
She’s here to bust myths about midlife fitness, explain why traditional diets fail us after 40, and share how we can actually boost our energy, build strength, and stay active—not just for today, but for decades to come. Whether you’re feeling stuck, exhausted, or just looking for that extra push, Jane’s insight will change the way you think about fitness at this stage of life.
And stick around—because I will be asking her the question we all want answered: How on earth does she do so many chin-ups?!
So, let’s get to it—please join me in welcoming Jane Marcus to The Not Old Better Show, Fitness Friday edition.
