If your workouts suddenly stopped working after 40, it’s not your motivation — it’s your hormones.
In this episode, women’s health and fitness coach Traci Herridge breaks down the science behind training during perimenopause and midlife, including how estrogen, cortisol, and insulin sensitivity affect fat loss, muscle, metabolism, and recovery. You’ll learn exactly how to structure strength training, cardio, walking, and recovery to support hormone balance instead of burning out your body.
This episode covers:
✔️ Best workouts for women over 40
✔️ How strength training improves hormone balance & metabolism
✔️ Why too much cardio and HIIT can backfire in midlife
✔️ How to train for fat loss without wrecking hormones
✔️ Simple weekly training structure for busy women
