Description
Show notes
In your thirties, you may have trained hard and responded well, achieving your goals, and feeling good in your body, but by your forties, you notice things are harder.
Then you reach a point in your later forties when it feels like your training and nutrition just aren’t workin’ for ya anymore.
The biggest concern of women in their forties is that their body composition starts changing.
They start storing fat in their abdomen. And they lose muscle (so they feel weaker)
In today’s episode, I talk about what’s driving this change and how we can reduce abdominal adiposity. I also talk about how to train in your 40s, 50s and beyond.
WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER
Why do women have an increase in abdominal fat in the 3-4 years before menopause
What’s driving the change
Insulins’ role in abdominal adiposity
How to train in your 40s, 50s and beyond
How strength training improves muscle mass, metabolic flexibility and body composition.
Why you need to polarise your training
Training at the top and low ends and their role in body composition
The importance of eating enough and enough protein
Where to start if you’re in your 40s, 50s or beyond
