Why Your Vigorous Exercise Routine is Failing You in Menopause
Hello and welcome to another episode of Menopause Unscripted.
In today’s conversation, I dive into a powerful truth that many women in perimenopause and menopause are yet to realise: pushing harder in the gym may actually be holding you back.
If you’ve been sweating buckets in HIIT classes, spin sessions, or long runs and still not seeing results, this episode will explain why.
I break down the cortisol trap—how excessive, high-intensity training spikes stress hormones, stalls fat loss, worsens sleep, and fuels cravings.
More isn’t better anymore.
Your body has changed, and your exercise needs to change too.
I share the story of a client who swapped endless running for just three 30-minute weightlifting sessions a week and finally saw her body transform.
We’ll explore why strength training is the smarter, hormone-friendly solution, helping you build lean muscle, protect your bones, and boost confidence for the long haul.
This episode isn’t about chasing skinny.
It’s about creating a strong, resilient body that will carry you powerfully through menopause and beyond.
I’ll also reveal the Five to Thrive habits—from nutrition and sleep to recovery and supplements—that work alongside smart training to rebalance your hormones and reshape your life.
If you’re tired of punishing workouts that leave you exhausted and frustrated, it’s time to listen.
This conversation may just change how you train—and how you feel—for good.
