In this week's episode, Kim sits down with Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist and Women's Health Coach Allison Poole to discuss all things perimenopause. She defines perimenopause, discusses symptoms, and talks about her own journey and how she became inspired to become a perimenopause coach.

Allison discusses some very specific strategies to help you have more control over your symptoms and discusses in depth what it's like when your hormones basically start throwing a party.

Allison Poole, PT, MPT, WHC, owner of Koru Physical Therapy and Wellness. With nearly 20 years clinical experience, she helps career-driven women in their 40's and 50's work with (not against) their changing hormones so that they can thrive in their careers and still have energy to have a fulfilling life outside of work.

To reach Allison, visit her website here, and if you want to find better resources to manage your symptoms, you can visit the North American Menopause Society website here.

A listener asked a very important question after listening to our last episode on the benefits of strength training - can you reverse the effects of Sarcopenia, which is the loss of muscle mass that begins in your 30's and starts increasing at a more rapid rate in your 60's and beyond.

So I set out to answer that question in this episode.

You can find a quick at home band circuit video here.

Did you know, that right now, as you are reading this podcast description, you are losing muscle mass (if you are over 40 years old)? It's true. It is estimated that people lose about one percent of their lean muscle mass per year after the age of 40.

In this episode, Kim and Sue discuss the multiple benefits of strength training, and one of the biggest boons is that you need to use your muscles to avoid losing it.

Strength training also increases your bone density, can improve your metabolism (muscle burns calories), help improve brain health, help with weight management, and just make you feel like a general bad ass.

If you are local to the Portland, Maine area and would like to get started, Kim is hosting a beginner's strength training workshop on November 19th. Visit this link for more information and to sign up.

And if you're not local to Maine, but would like a kickstart to get you going, you can purchase Kim's beginner's book on strength training here.

What does it mean to be living your best life? 

We say it about our pets all of the time - I mean who doesn't want to come back as their dog next time around? But we rarely say it about ourselves or even other human beings. In the inaugural episode of Start Where You Are, online personal trainer and nutrition coach Kim Lloyd and co-host Susan Donaher discuss what it means to follow your curiosity and live your best life.

What does it mean to be living your best life?

Join my co-host, Susan Donaher, and me, Kim Lloyd, online personal trainer and nutrition coach, as we dive into the ways we can each learn to live our best lives.

In every episode, we’ll start with a seemingly simple question: Do I have to? (hint: yes, you do have to put on pants to start your day, unless you're on zoom calls, and then you do you baby).

Along the way with humor, tips and life hacks, we’ll help you figure out how to follow your curiosity, determine what your obstacles are and how to 'Start Where You Are.' Whether you find yourself on a fitness journey, are looking to lose weight or are frustrated with ways you’ve gotten stuck on your to-do list, let us help you figure out what's getting in the way of you creating the life you’ve always wanted.
