The Body Recomposition Revolution | Fat Loss and Strength for Women 35+

Is intermittent fasting good for women over 35? Does fasting help or hurt during perimenopause and menopause? In Day 40 of The Body Recomposition Revolution, we explore why intermittent fasting may feel completely different after age 35 and what current research suggests about fasting, hormones, muscle preservation, and fat loss.

Follow me on Instagram @RACFitness_ for daily evidence-based body recomposition tips, workouts, and free nutrition resources.

Learn why many women thrive with consistent protein intake and strength training instead of long fasting windows, how perimenopause and menopause change recovery, appetite, and muscle-building, and why meal timing, eating windows, and protein distribution may be more effective for body recomposition than aggressive intermittent fasting.

🎯 Today's Daily Targets:

1. ​✅ Calculate your BMR so you know how many calories your body needs at rest.
2. ​✅ Identify your current eating window and determine whether it supports your protein and recovery goals.
3. ​✅ Set a personal record (PR) by lifting heavier than ever on one exercise during today's strength workout.

Tomorrow: We're answering another question women ask every day: How much protein do women really need to lose fat and build muscle? Follow The Body Recomposition Revolution so you don't miss the next lesson in your 90-day body recomposition journey.

In Day 38 of The Body Recomposition Revolution, we separate one of the biggest fitness myths from what the research actually says.

What's the Best Intermittent Fasting Schedule for Women? Is 12:12 better than 16:8? Does meal timing actually matter for fat loss? In Day 37 of The Body Recomposition Revolution, we break down the science behind intermittent fasting schedules and explain why the best eating window for women over 35 isn't necessarily the longest fast.

You'll learn why 12:12, 14:10, and 16:8 aren't magic fat-loss formulas, how your circadian rhythm affects metabolism, insulin sensitivity, digestion, recovery, and sleep, and why preserving muscle should always take priority over extending your fasting window. If your goal is body recomposition—losing fat while building or maintaining lean muscle—this episode will help you choose an eating schedule that supports your workouts, protein intake, recovery, and long-term success.

• The difference between intermittent fasting and a normal overnight eating window.

• Whether 12:12, 14:10, or 16:8 is the best fasting schedule for women.
• Why longer fasting isn't automatically better for fat loss or muscle preservation.

• How your circadian rhythm influences metabolism, hormones, and meal timing.
• Why eating earlier in the day may support better energy, recovery, and sleep.
• The four pillars that actually drive fat loss: calorie balance, protein intake, strength training, and consistency.🎯 Today's Daily Targets:

1. ✅ Choose an eating window (such as 12:12 or 14:10) that fits your lifestyle and helps you consistently hit your protein goal.
2. ✅ Eat 20–30 grams of protein within an hour of waking, especially before morning workouts.
3. ✅ Finish your last meal 2–3 hours before bed to support recovery and quality sleep.

Tomorrow: We're tackling one of the biggest fitness myths of all: Does fasted cardio actually burn more fat?
