Menopause Fitness: Understanding the Science Behind the Symptoms

As we approach perimenopause and continue to journey through our menopausal years, it’s common to experience a range of symptoms that can feel frustrating and confusing.

Menopause can bring a lot of changes that feel overwhelming, but they’re a natural part of the transition. By understanding the science behind these symptoms, you can take meaningful steps with the right fitness, nutrition, and lifestyle changes to regain strength, energy, and confidence.

 

Menopause Exhaustion in Menopause: Loss of Power and Energy

Estrogen and progesterone, two key hormones, fluctuate during menopause. These hormones play important roles in keeping us energized, strong, and healthy. When their levels drop, you might start feeling more tired or lacking the energy you used to have. When you learn how to adjust your nutrition and workouts, you’ll begin to feel stronger, fitter, slimmer, and healthier. To help you on this journey, Menopause Livia and Medi-Gyn have created easy-to-follow workout videos for beginners as part of the Flat Belly Experience.

 

Understanding Why we Lose Lean Muscle & Bone Health Changes in Menopause 

Estrogen plays a key role in building and maintaining muscle (lean mass) and keeping our bones strong. As estrogen levels decrease, our muscles lose strength and mass, and bone density weakens, leading to an increase in body fat. However, by incorporating resistance training into your routine, you can slow down these changes and start to see real improvements.

Join us for video workouts twice a week, starting with 10 repetitions, resting, and repeating five times. With Livia’s knowledge and experience in online and 1-on-1 coaching, you’ll feel stronger, healthier, and slimmer over time. Let’s get started and take the first step towards feeling your best!

 

Why Join our Flat Tummy Experience?

If you’re already working out, or you are a total beginner, but are unsure about the latest science behind exercise for menopause, our expert, Livia Rees who is the founder of Menopause Livia, is here to guide you through managing your body from perimenopause to post-menopause & beyond.

As estrogen levels drop, the body tends to store more fat, particularly around the hips, thighs, and abdomen. This fat becomes more active metabolically as the body conserves energy during hormonal changes, often leading to weight gain around the belly.

Our Flat Tummy Experience is designed to help you take the first steps toward a healthier, slimmer waistline and flatter tummy. Join us for our 14-day experience  and start making lasting changes today!

 

Why Muscle Loss Happens in Menopause

Estrogen plays a crucial role in muscle strength by influencing a protein called myosin, which helps muscles contract. As estrogen levels decline, muscle contractions become less effective, leading to reduced strength and muscle mass (sarcopenia). Without sufficient estrogen, the body also struggles to send strong signals for muscle repair and growth, leading to further muscle loss.

Menopause Livia will guide you through simple, effective starter videos with Irina Bond, founder of Medi-Gyn, to help prevent muscle loss and set you on the path toward a flatter tummy and stronger body.

 

Gut Health in Menopause

Estrogen has a significant impact on the gut microbiome, which plays a key role in digestion and overall health. Hormonal changes during menopause can disrupt gut health, leading to bloating and digestive discomfort. By incorporating more nutrient-dense meals, you can reduce bloating, feel less sluggish, and boost your energy levels.

Join Irina Bond, longevity expert and founder of  Medi-Gyn and Livia Rees, author of The Nutratonin Diet eBooks for Menopause, for their fact-packed, informative nutrition videos. These will guide you on your journey toward a flatter tummy and improved gut health during menopause!

 

Why Body Fat, especially Tummy Fat,  Increases in Menopause

As muscle mass decreases and fat increases, your body enters a “deprivation state,” storing more fat around the belly and hips. This fat is more metabolically active, raising the risk of metabolic issues and making you feel sluggish. But here’s the good news: by incorporating the right exercise and nutrition into your routine, you can stop this fat storage in its tracks!

The MENOPAUSE Flat Tummy Experience is designed with our Partners – @menopauselivia and @yourwellbeingsanctuary – to help you take control and start your journey toward a flatter, healthier tummy. Let’s take that first step together!
