All the best things in my life have happened because I decided not to do what I was "supposed" to do. 

Before high school, my teachers said that I should attend a purely scientific high school, but I chose a foreign language high school instead.
After high school, my professors told me that I was wasting my time going into engineering because I didn't have the necessary foundation.
When I quit my first job as a project manager to become a development engineer, everybody thought it was a step backwards.
When I left Italy to find a job in e-mobility, everybody thought I was crazy because "electric cars are just city cars."
When I started dating a French guy, everybody was surprised and asked, "Really? A French guy?"
Want to guess what happened when I said that I didn't want to develop sports cars anymore?

We are the result of our choices, and I tend to not choose the obvious and easy way. Ryan Holiday made me realize that I am just a stoic.

I love challenges, concepts, prototypes, adventures, and explorations.

I can talk for hours about innovation, futures, gaming, and "the hot tech sh*t of the year."

I am addicted to learning new things every day, all while parenting two amazing and lively little humans (with the French guy).

My favorite T-shirt says, "Rebel is my favorite color!" but I recently bought another one that is fighting for the top spot and says, "Hell was boring."

I’ve been on the hunt for a sport that truly fits my lifestyle, my physiology, and what Stacy T. Sims, PhD  teaches about training for women. A few weeks ago, I found it and jumped in: strongman training.

Lifting odd, heavy objects has become the most unexpectedly fun part of my week. It challenges me, grounds me, and feels designed for how my body actually works.

As the nerd I am, I’m measuring and tracking everything I can with wearables and apps—and since none of them quite capture what I need, I’ve also started building my own training app with Lovable. Data, experimentation, and strength training turned out to be a perfect mix.

To make sure I won‘t let go, I decided that I will take part in a strong(wo)man competition next October. Now you know, I can’t back off. 

Strength has no age limit.

WHY STRENGTH TRAINING AS A WOMAN OVER 40?

Strength training isn’t a niche interest for women; it’s one of the most protective things we can do for our bodies as we move through our 40s and beyond.

Muscle mass naturally declines with age, and strength work slows that drop dramatically. It supports metabolism, stabilizes hormones, improves insulin sensitivity, and builds the foundation for long-term mobility. It also protects bone density at a stage when many women start to lose it quickly.

For women over 40, strength isn’t just about lifting heavier. It’s about keeping joints stable, reducing injury risk, improving posture, and maintaining the kind of everyday resilience that makes life smoother.

The more I train, the clearer it becomes: strength is not optional. It’s a health investment with compound interest.

Strength has no age limit.
