A question I get asked a lot is “what is the best amount of exercise to do and what type is best in perimenopause? Whether cardio or weights, or a combination of the two”. This is exactly what I address in this week’s episode, which is also the fourth foundational pillar to address for a happier, healthier and easier perimenopause journey.

Your exercise and movement should be nourishing to your body and nervous system, and support muscle-building. The focus needs to come away from exercise as a weight loss or weight control tool and instead be a vehicle for a healthier, stronger, happier body and mind. The natural side effects of exercising in a way that’s nourishing and muscle building is fat loss and a healthy body composition.

In this episode, I talk about:

• The typical advice and mindset around exercise and movement, particularly for women, and how it is wrecking your hormones, your health AND your weight in your 40s!
• How we should we be approaching movement and exercise 40+
• Including the impact of doing too much intense cardio and what to be doing instead
• Why and how to build muscle
• The best way to workout for your hormones, overall health, happiness, and waistline
• How a healthy weekly exercise routine could look
