Dr. Stephanie Estima- Lose Fat During Menopause: The Ultimate Guide To Women's Health
Dr. Stephanie Estima shares her expertise on optimising women's health during Peri-menopause and menopause, focusing on meals, muscles, and mindset. Her book "The Betty Body" explores training and nourishing the body based on monthly hormonal cycles.
Steph describes the physical and emotional challenges of the luteal phase and how it can predict the menopausal transition. She highlights how hormones like oestrogen and testosterone peak around ovulation, impacting motor skills and learning.
Building muscle mass through targeted training becomes crucial during Peri-menopause/menopause for bone density and metabolism. Resistance training is emphasised over excessive HIIT for women in this transition to build quality muscle, support cardiovascular health as oestrogen declines, and avoid increased belly fat. The importance of strength training over excessive cardio is discussed, as building muscle boosts metabolism and leads to true fat loss over time, especially as we age.
