    Nov 1 2024
    Here are three strength training workouts designed specifically for women in menopause. These focus on maintaining muscle mass, boosting bone density, and supporting hormone balance. Each workout should be done 2–3 times a week, allowing at least one rest day between sessions.

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.

    Better Sex In Menopause and Beyond
    Oct 29 2024

    How’s better sex in menopause sound? For many it sounds like a distant and foreign trip.

    Sex is one of the most popular topics on the show. Many women tell me their partners are glad they’re attending. Sex is such a hot topic (see what I did there?) that low libido was a topic answered one of the first three episodes of the Flipping 50 TV show.

    learned and normalizes healthy, enjoyable sex worth desiring, in addition to essential education

    on midlife health and hormones.

    • What is the science of desire? [00:18:05]
    • What are the common myths women believe about their sexuality? [00:07:25]
    • Is there a dramatic or distinct fall off of sexual interest for women related to menopause or when does that occur? [00:13:15]
    • What are the reasons women stop being intimate in midlife? [00:12:45]
    • What are the two different types of desire? [00:18:05]
    • What is the most important thing to know about desire mismatch in a couple? [00:19:25]

Informercials without information

I was looking forward to getting something out of these podcasts. They ended up being interviews without substance where you have to find the website of the person she is interviewing and fork over a bunch of money to get any of the actual usable information.
