Mastering Strength Training: A Guide for Triathletes and Back Health

After experiencing weight gain and seeking medical advice, the author discovered the importance of strength training for women approaching menopause. They were advised to incorporate heavier weights and fewer reps into their routine, as well as increase their protein intake. Consuming protein-rich meals before and after workouts helps with muscle repair and improves blood sugar and body composition. The author also stopped obsessing over their weight and focused on how they felt instead. The goal is to embrace the changes that come with aging and prioritize consistent movement every day.
