and she suggests ways you should get moving too. She’s sold more than 20 million exercise videos and DVDs, starred in fitness television shows since the 1980s and written 10 books. And at 52 she’s still going strong and she’s still helping women to achieve their fitness goals.
She has always promoted a well-balanced workout plan. Part of it is cardio, part strength training and then flexibility. You really need all three. You have to make your muscles feel surprised.

Denise says a woman can get a fit, toned and sexy body at 50, but she has to work out for it. Fight gravity all the way. Exercise is a must. Especially muscle-conditioning moves. To keep up your muscle tone and firm up, work out at least three times a week with weights, your own body weight, Pilates or boot-camp-type exercises that focus on strength.
Of course, cardio is so important too, as well as stretching for flexibility.

Denise says, I see people who are always in their cars, always driving. I encourage them to walk more — walk to the post office, walk to lunch. Even if it is a 10-minute walk, it’s so good for you.
I also tell people to wake up 10 minutes earlier and do some calisthenics. Mentally, you prepare yourself to have a healthier day.
