The Perimenopause Sessions - Episode 5 - Why Consistent Exercise is a Non-Negotiable

As we get older, it feels like it gets more stressful to do all the things we need to do. We’ve got kids, stressful jobs, we have to look after the house or ageing parents. We can be lacking in sleep and motivation, maybe we're also putting some weight on.

In previous episodes I've covered some key topics, including what the perimenopause is, how to improve sleep and prevent weight gain. Today we will talk about something that is non-negotiable - consistent exercise.

What You Will Learn in This Episode: 

- How to discover a key component of what you need to do in terms of exercise

- Good ways to challenge your body

- How to battle with sarcopenia or muscle loss

- Which type of exercise can increase your metabolism

- How to build an all-around fitness program that's going to work for you

- Why consistent and combined exercise is crucial in the perimenopause

Remember, you don't have to be perfect, but trying to incorporate exercise on a relatively regular basis is going to help you a lot in this period of life. I promise that you can even learn how to enjoy it and how you're going to feel on the other side.
