Description
Angela shares great content and advice on how to biohack your fitness to get through perimenopause and beyond
Exercise is an incredibly powerful tool and Angela goes through the 3 types of exercise that can improve insulin sensitivity, reduce fat mass, and reduce cortisol if optimised as part of your routine
Improve your lean mass, activate more GLUT4 and enhance body composition by including sprint interval training, plyometric work, and strength training, listen in and hear exactly how to optimise and get great results
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Oestradiol helps to develop stronger mitochondria and the better your mitochondria the more energy you will have
As lean mass decreases it reduces metabolic rate and can lead to weight gain
Fat in the abdominal area contains more cortisol receptors which leads to increased cortisol production and results in more fat storage
Focus on heavy lifting with your compound exercises
Increasing your muscle mass helps to improve insulin sensitivity
Plyometric training helps to enhance bone density and increase your metabolism during rest
Specific High-Intensity Training such as sprint interval training has been shown to increase lean muscle mass, reduces fat mass and belly fat and lowers cortisol and enhances BDNF
BEST MOMENTS
‘You will be getting the fantastic benefits of better cognition, better working memory and speed of thinking’
‘There are many benefits with sprint interval training and it helps you burn more calories at rest’
