If you’re over 40, your workouts should change. In perimenopause and menopause: Hormones shift. Recovery changes. Muscle becomes harder to maintain. So doing more cardio and eating less backfires.

And, what works at 40 or even 45 may not work at 50. Menopause changes things. While the foundational principles may be the same, when it comes to perimenopause and menopause…one-size-fits-all doesn’t work. You have to pivot, listen to your body, and adjust your approach.
