Meg once was a terror in the world of roller derby. But these days, her sedentary lifestyle is making everyday physical activities a tad daunting. (We’re looking at you, groceries that need to be carried up four flights of stairs!). She wants to start lifting weights, but she’s unsure where to start—and whether she can avoid the bro-culture of many weight rooms. On this episode of How To!: Courtney Martin brings in writer and powerlifter Mikala Jamison, who was in Meg’s shoes not that long ago. She shares how she got started, why lifting is a lifelong journey, and what we can learn from the current zeitgeist for women’s strength training.

  • Meg, when was the last time you felt really strong?

  • Oh gosh.

  • So this is a really long time ago now, but I think it was when I was doing roller derby because you know you're working out two to four times a week and you're using that strength in an activity.

  • You're seeing it on display, basically.

  • But I haven't been doing anything that has been working those same muscles, literally and figuratively.

  • So it's been a real long while.

  • Welcome to how to.
