Fitness Over 50 | 5 Easy Steps to Get Moving Again
Reclaim Your Energy
During perimenopause and menopause, the decrease in estrogen can lead to joint stiffness, loss of muscle tone, and a slower metabolism. While these changes are natural, staying active is a powerful way to reduce these symptoms and feel better in your skin.
5 Easy Steps to Get Moving
- Dress for Success: Supportive clothing and high-quality performance shoes provide the necessary cushioning for your joints and back.
- Prioritize Large Muscle Movement: Focus on your powerhouse muscles - the quads, hamstrings, and glutes. Walking is one of the easiest ways to start because "outside is free"!
- Incorporate Weight Training: To combat muscle loss and declining bone density, try the 10/10/3 rule: 10 pounds for 10 minutes, three times a week. Light handheld weights are a great way to start!
- Set Your Rhythm: Choose a schedule that fits your personality - whether it's morning, midday, or evening. To ensure you stay consistent, choose a time that works best for YOU!
- Stay Inspired: Treat exercise like a personal investment account where you make small, incremental deposits toward your long-term health.
After your workout, use the Maison 276 3-Step System to refresh your silver strands!
