If you're a woman over 40 in perimenopause or menopause, this 40-minute full body strength workout is built for you. Grab your dumbbells and follow along with me in this compound, no-jumping session designed to build muscle, support bone health, and keep your metabolism working for you.
We're training the whole body today: 5 blocks, 3 moves per block, 45 seconds on / 15 seconds transition, 2 rounds each, plus a banded glute finisher, warm up and cooldown. Lots of compound movements to keep your heart rate up while you build real strength. Strength training is the foundation for changing your body composition at this stage of life, and consistency is what gets you results.
🏋️♀️ WHAT YOU'LL NEED - Dumbbells: a range of weights (I use 8 to 25 lb) - A bench (or a sturdy step/floor option) - A mat - A glute loop / booty band ⌚ Apple Watch users: set it to Traditional Strength Training
