You're not sedentary. You move. You exercise. You do the things you're supposed to do.
And you're still getting weaker, more tired, and watching your body composition shift in ways that don't make sense given how hard you're working.
This episode is about the gap between being active and being strong — and why that gap widens during perimenopause and menopause. If you've been asking yourself what should I eat during menopause or wondering why your metabolism after 40 feels completely different than it used to, this one is for you.
In This Episode, You'll Learn:
Why physical activity and strength training are not the same thing — and why your muscles need both
How estrogen decline changes your body's ability to hold onto muscle, and how does menopause affect metabolism in ways your doctor probably hasn't explained
Why too much cardio without recovery raises cortisol — and what that stress response does to your body composition in perimenopause and menopause
Why more is not better in menopause — and what your body actually needs instead
What your muscles actually need to stay strong after 40 — and what's missing for most women
Why nutrition after 40 looks different than it did in your 30s, and why protein is the make-or-break nutrient for muscle
Why women who are doing everything "right" still end up losing ground
