Why Cardio Isn't Enough Anymore - What Women 45+ Actually Need
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You've been showing up. Walking, running, spinning, moving. You're sweating consistently - and your body has stopped responding the way it used to.
Here's what most women don't realize: it's not a discipline problem. It's a hormone problem. And the solution isn't more cardio. It's a completely different approach.
In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly why cardio stops working as a fat loss strategy in perimenopause - and what to do instead.
You'll learn:
- What estrogen decline actually does to your muscle mass and metabolism - and why it changes everything about how you should be training
- What strength training does for your hormones, your metabolism, your bone density, and your body composition that cardio simply cannot
- What a realistic, effective strength-focused week actually looks like - without spending an hour in the gym
- The difference between maintaining and actually progressing -and why it matters more than most women realize
- Why the women who feel genuinely different by the end of summer are almost never the ones who ran more miles
Cardio is not the enemy. But if it's been your whole plan, now you know why it hasn't been enough.
Your body isn't failing you. It's asking for something different. In today's episode, we talk about what that is.
