EP 57: How Carb Timing Supports Muscle, Hormones, and Fat Loss After 40
In this episode, we talk about why fat loss isn’t just about calories… it’s about timing. You’ll learn why eating most of your carbs around your workouts can help you preserve more lean muscle, protect your metabolism, improve recovery, and finally start reshaping your body, not just shrinking it.
We’ll break down what’s happening in your body in perimenopause and menopause, how carb timing supports hormones and energy, and simple, realistic fueling strategies you can start using right away.
And if you’re ready for support in 2026, whether you want a fully customized plan or a powerful 6-week reset, I’d love to help you get there.
