306. 3 Perimenopause and Menopause Fitness Myths Debunked with Liz Wolfe
This week Liz Wolfe returns to the show for a candid conversation about all the fitness myths we’re seeing around the wild world of wellness in 2025.
Together, we get into why people are slapping the word “perimenopause” on everything, how to focus on agility as much as strength training, and everyone’s favorite fall purchase: weighted vests.
We also discuss:
- Taylor’s new album and why we love her with Travis
- Why strength is different than muscle mass
- Liz’s tips for injury prevention at any age
- The nervous system benefits of proper form
- How to reclaim your range of motion to prevent injury
- Perfectionism as a protection strategy
- How much muscle you can actually build (and maintain)
- The very real risks of under-eating in midlife
- Finding yourself on the spectrum of detrained to trained
- Muscle and strength don’t vanish from a few off weeks but at 4-6 weeks of no training
- What Liz really thinks about weighted vests
