Muscle for Life with Mike Matthews

Ep. #1162: Q&A: Fixing Amenorrhea, Weightlifting for Cardio, Staying Muscular at 40+ & More


Listen Later

In this episode, I discuss how fit women can fix amenorrhea, whether high-rep sets are good for cardio, the challenges of staying muscular at 40+, and lots more.

As always, these questions come directly from my Instagram followers, who take advantage of my weekly Q&As in my stories.

If you have a question you're dying to have answered, make sure you follow me on Instagram (@muscleforlifefitness) and look out for the Q&A posts. Your question might just make it into a podcast episode!

If you like this type of episode, let me know. Send me an email ([email protected]) or direct message me on Instagram. And if you don’t like it, let me know that too or how you think it could be better.
