We know lifting heavy, doing plyometrics, and adding intensity to our routines help us stay strong and powerful as our bodies change during the menopause transition. But where do we start? What if we can’t jump? How do we lift heavy if we don’t have heavy weights? Longtime trainer and now one of the leaders of the Menopause for Athletes Alumni group, Kerry Ann Madden digs into the nuts and bolts of getting started, whether you’re self-coaching or working with clients. 

Kerry Ann is the creator and owner of KAM Fitness and Nutrition. She is a weight-inclusive NASM Master Trainer, a Precision Nutrition Certified Coach, a Corrective Exercise Specialist, and a MedFit Network Member. She has completed Dr. Stacy Sims Menopause for Athletes course and puts her expertise to use with her clients who are in the menopause transition.
