???? Over 40 ladies, it's time to get lifting heavy stuff! ???
Ladies, here's a fantastic tip to brighten your day and tackle those perimenopausal symptoms head-on: start lifting heavy! And guess what? You won't bulk up, but you'll definitely experience a wave of benefits, from balancing blood sugar levels to boosting gut microbiome diversity and even dialling down those pesky hot flushes.
For many years, especially when I was young, women were doing cardio while men dominated the weights room. I understand that it can be daunting, but let me tell you, there is so much science-backed research on how crucial it is to build muscle.
Here are a few benefits you can look forward to:
?? TO BUILD MUSCLE: Lifting heavy is the gateway to building lean, defined muscles. ????
?? IMPROVED METABOLISM: With increased lean muscle mass comes improved metabolism and better glucose control. ???♀???
?? LONGEVITY: You are future-proofing your body against injury and illness by strengthening bones and improving joint stability! ????
?? CONFIDENCE ????: By pushing your physical limits, you cultivate mental fortitude and resilience that proves to yourself over and over again that you can do hard things! ????
