Manage episode 421715251 series 3571609
Are traditional exercise methods failing women during menopause? In this episode, Dr Stacy Sims, an exercise physiologist and nutrition scientist, reveals how typical male-centered training routines can harm women, especially during midlife.
Dr. Sims shares her groundbreaking insights on women's unique physiological needs and how adopting women-specific training programs can significantly enhance health, prevent injuries, and boost performance.
We debunk the myth that lifting heavy weights leads to unwanted bulk and highlight the profound benefits of resistance training, from improved muscle strength and bone density to cognitive enhancements that reduce the risks of dementia and Alzheimer's.
We also explore the importance of balanced, fibre-rich meals, eating with proper intervals, and the benefits of incorporating essential supplements like creatine, vitamin D, and magnesium.
