Nope, you aren’t imagining it! Menopause causes musculoskeletal symptoms in a whopping 80% of people. When estrogen walks out the door, many women suffer from joint pain, pins and needles, muscle pain, and biggies like osteoporosis and arthralgia, which is total body and joint pain. On this week’s show, top sports doc, orthopedic surgeon, and women’s health expert Dr. Vonda Wright breaks down the science on protecting bone health—think fracture protection and more—and shares ideas for building lean muscle mass at any age. We talk HRT, weight training, smart diet, and lifestyle choices, plus your biological versus chronological age. Bonus! Vonda shares a sneak peek at her newest book and gives us the BTS on how she trained for her first Spartan Woman’s race.
