202 - Repairing Your Metabolism in Menopause
Whatsup, ya Nerdles! Are your maintenance calories frustratingly low, even though you're doing everything “right”? Maybe you're feeling like your metabolism tanked the second you hit your 40s or 50s?
In this episode, we’re breaking down what’s really going on with your metabolism during perimenopause and menopause and why diet culture, not menopause, is often to blame. We talk about how you can rebuild your metabolism without fear, how to strength train for real results, and how to stop being scared to eat more.
This episode was inspired by a listener comment on our menopause episode with Dr. Allan Bacon—and it sparked a raw, real convo about what women are never told about midlife, metabolism, and muscle.
What We Cover:
Why your metabolism isn’t “broken”—but it is underfed and under muscled!
How chronic dieting lowers your maintenance calories (and how to fix it)
Why strength training is the most powerful tool in midlife
How to know if you're lifting hard enough to get results
How to push past the fear of gaining weight when eating more
- A client example of switching from group fitness classes with tons of cardio, to traditional strength training
You can increase your calories, lift heavier, and feel amazing in your body again—but you’ve got to stop trying to shrink it to do so.
