Can CrossFit change your life in midlife?

This week on Midlife No Crisis, we’re joined by Vikki Gwilt, a dedicated CrossFit athlete and international competitor who discovered strength training later in life and never looked back.

We chat about:

• How Vikki found CrossFit after fitness classes and BMF
• Why strength training matters for women over 40
• Competing internationally in CrossFit masters events
• Midlife fitness, hormones and hot flushes
• Fitness motivation and building healthy habits
• The reality of supplements, recovery and rest days
• Why getting stronger matters more than getting thinner
• Community, confidence and mental wellbeing

Vikki shares her journey from everyday gym-goer to placing among the top competitors in her age group — proving it’s never too late to get stronger.

Whether you’re curious about CrossFit, struggling with motivation, or looking for inspiration to prioritise your health in midlife, this episode is packed with honest conversation and plenty of laughs.
