What to Eat to Build Muscle in Menopause | MMP Ep. 88

Our mission is to teach women about how their bodies change during the perimenopausal period (and onwards) so they can finally reach their health and fitness goals, live a life full of vitality and feel in CONTROL and at home in their bodies again! 

There is no excessive restrictions, no taking out your favorite foods, no doing crazy high intensity exercise or cutting out carbs!

We cover hormones, exercise, nutrition and answer all of your questions!

Health & Fitness

I get these questions a lot:



- How many calories do I need to lose weight?

- How long do I drop my calories for?

- What happens if I plateau?

- How many fat loss cycles do I need?



And those are all great questions but the answer to all of them is “it depends”



In this episode I go into all those questions and give some background information to give you a better understanding of everything!

How Many Fat Loss Phases Do I Need? | MMP Ep. 95

Menopause needs to be taken more seriously. Period.

I see so many women that get their concerns brushed off as “no big deal” just because they don’t feel like themselves and want to lose weight.

And they get told the same advice over and over despite it not working: “eat less move more”

And quite frankly - all of that pisses me off.

If it is a big deal to them then it should be a big deal to you.

This is what is leaving women feeling alone, vulnerable and desperate.

And the people who should be supporting them and helping them are quite frankly just contributing to the problem.

So ladies - this one's for you. To share with other women who feel alone. To share with those who need to hear it. Let’s advocate!

TIMESTAMPS:
(00:00) - Intro
(01:08) - Overview of supporting women in menopause
(02:38) - How the quality of life changes in menopause
(07:18) - Listening & understanding the struggles they are going through
(11:07) - Encouraging them to find things they enjoy
(13:19) - Finding out what they need
(16:21) - Helping them find someone to help them move forward
(18:02) - Final thoughts & reminders
