Staying hydrated during menopause. As we age, our bodies struggle to retain moisture. Make sure you’re drinking enough water! 💧💧💧 It’ll make your skin, hair & nails healthier, will help your brain stay active, reduce headaches and help reduce brain fog. #menopausetips

As we get older our bodies change…. It’s NORMAL. Even if you eat & train the same way as you always have, your hormone changes are going to affect how you look & weigh. Trying to look like ‘your old self’ is probably obstructing your progress.

Protein & weights during menopause. Menopausal women should aim for 1.8 - 2.0gms protein per KG of bodyweight per day to maintain muscle as oestrogen declines & it’s harder to keep our muscle mass. Combining this with strength training is the key 🔑

As we age, your warm ups are so much more important to get the muscles activated. Using lighter weights on your strength workout doesn’t constitute as warming up! Get that body moving people!

‘I need to lose 10lbs in 6 weeks!’. How many times have we all heard /said that? Instead of….. ‘I’d like to deadlift my body weight in 12 months’ Or ‘I want to do 20 full press ups in 18 months’ We would all be in a lot better shape for not focusing on the weighing scales.

Menopause & motivation. Leane came to me 8mths ago, she’d lost all her motivation to workout & all she worked on was cardio. She’s now the strongest she’s ever been, looking amazing & all this with no left kneecap and two shoulder operations. 💪🏼#strongwomen #menopausetraining
