TWR 341: How to Navigate Midlife Fitness Changes with BODi’s Carl Daikeler

January 2, 2025

Struggling to keep up with your fitness goals as you get older? In this episode of The Wellness Revolution podcast, I talk with Carl Daikeler, co-founder of BODi (formerly Beachbody), about simplifying health approaches to feel your best at any age. We dive deep into understanding how our fitness needs change as we age, exploring everything from mobility and agility to energy management and hormonal impacts.

Carl shares invaluable insights on a balanced approach to fitness and nutrition that actually works, why health esteem matters more than self-esteem, the importance of measuring progress beyond the scale, how the Belle Vital program specifically addresses women’s health needs, and why more women should consider entrepreneurship.

We also discuss BODi’s transition from network marketing to affiliate marketing and their mission to make health accessible for everyone. Whether you’re just starting your fitness journey or looking to adjust your approach for midlife, this conversation offers practical wisdom from an industry pioneer.
