Belly fat after 45 isn't just about cortisol. Sleep, stress, movement and changing hormones all play a part. Here are 8 daily habits worth knowing. THREAD

Oranges aren’t the only fruit bringing vitamin C to the table. 🥝🍊 Guava, kiwi and sea buckthorn offer plenty too. Different fruits. More variety. Which one would you choose?

There’s more to lemon than vitamin C. 🍋 Its citrate may help prevent certain kidney stones, while vitamin C helps your body absorb plant-based iron. But sipping lemon water all morning exposes teeth to acid. Rinse with water afterwards and wait before brushing.

Your plate doesn’t need one “best” food. Mix up your fruit, veg, nuts and seeds so you get a little of what each offers.

Turmeric, a little honey and warm water. A simple golden drink for those moments when you fancy something different. ☕💛

Caught yourself hunching again? Relax your shoulders, take a breath and have a gentle stretch. We all need the reminder.

Don't avoid whole fruit simply because it contains sugar. Fruit also provides water, fibre and useful nutrients. A whole orange and a glass of orange juice aren't nutritionally identical, even when both come from the same fruit.

Your deadlift setup may look different from someone else’s. Thigh, arm and torso length all help shape your starting position.

A year of consistent triceps training, and those sleeves fit differently. 💪

A warm shower before bed may help you fall asleep sooner by helping your body cool down afterwards. 🚿😴

Train for the things you want to keep doing at 60, 70 and beyond. Building muscle after 40 is an investment in everyday life. Here’s why. THREAD

From a shaky hang to 20 pull-ups: an animated year of progress. Results vary, and recovery matters. 💪

Berries, banana and a little nutty crunch. A simple mix that looks as good as it tastes. 🍓🫐🍌

Hibiscus tea may help lower blood pressure, research suggests. A refreshing drink, but not a replacement for prescribed treatment. 🌺
