Notes from Chat Gpt for 3 Menopause Strength Workouts “These workouts are designed to help women in menopause maintain lean muscle, improve bone health, and boost metabolism. Encourage the women to lift heavier weights as they feel stronger while maintaining proper form. Always leave room for rest and recovery to support hormone balance.” For menopause metabolism, a total body workout is generally better. Here's why: Boosts overall metabolism: Total body workouts engage multiple large muscle groups, which means more calorie burn both during and after the workout. This is great for combating the slower metabolism that often accompanies menopause.Time-efficient: A total body routine lets you hit all the major muscle groups in one session, perfect for those with busy schedules.Hormonal balance: Engaging the whole body in one session can help with better regulation of hormones like cortisol and insulin, which are crucial during menopause.More frequent stimulus: With total body workouts, you're stimulating your muscles more frequently, which helps preserve muscle mass key for maintaining a healthy metabolism. Split routines can be effective too, but total body sessions may offer more metabolic bang for your buck during menopause.
