Menopause and Fitness: A Perfect Healthy Pairing (And Ways To Get Started!)

With all the recent coverage of menopause, I am excited that my new Fit Over 50: The Menopause Issue magazine is out and available now, to help women of all ages prepare for and get through the menopause years! To me, one of the most important aspects when it comes to menopause is staying active... keeping a consistent routine of movement and activity can help to keep so many menopause-related side effects at bay, including:

• Decreasing muscle tone - add strength training workouts for strong, healthy muscle that will help you lift and move!
• Stiffness and aches - stretching routines like yoga and Pilates can help to promote flexibility and balance.
• An expanding mid-section - targeted core workouts can help to firm up your core, including the front and sides of your waistline.
• Bad posture - stretching and strength training can help you to stand taller by strengthening muscles and working your core.

And regular exercise also helps to boost your mood, stave off brain fog, and promote a healthy heart!!

That's why NOW is the time to start a menopause-focused workout plan! My Fit Over 50: The Menopause Issue includes a 7-day workout plan and strength training movements you can do anytime, anywhere. Buy the issue now (or find in stores!) and get ready for a keepsake filled with exercise, nutrition, and lifestyle info all designed to make menopause easier!

And if you order but can't wait for more menopause tips, get my free Menopause Strong Mini Guide! Menopause advice, including workout videos, eating tips, and even a list of what to discuss with your doctor is right here - download it today for free! 

Remember that when it comes to movement every little bit counts - every minute helps you burn calories, tone up, boost your metabolism and more! Movement is the magic key to feeling and looking your best in your menopause years!

Let's live FIT, HAPPY and HEALTHY - together!!
