Eat right to Stay Strong Moving Through Menopause

    • Health & Fitness

Eating right to stay strong means we must combine appropriate training with good nutrition. This means understanding the role of macronutrients like protein, carbohydrates and fats, and the movements that help us build muscle.



In this Podcast Episode, I chatted with Nikkiey Stott, Certified Personal Trainer, Champion bodybuilder, and the founder of Warrior Babe. She shares her top tips to feel stronger than ever as we approach Menopause and beyond.



You will learn all about how tracking macronutrients helps us prevent muscle loss and turn the tide to build more muscle up to and after menopause.




We chat about the benefits of strength training, the significance of an adequate protein intake, and the need for balanced nutrition.


Nikki shares her journey from becoming a bodybuilding champion to incorporating the science of macronutrients into a more sustainable long-term approach to health.


Training and building muscle is not just about how we look we are training for life. Lifting heavy shopping bags, opening stiff jars, gardening, and picking up hefty grandkids. All this takes muscle!



Think of muscle as an organ of longevity, it plays a vital role in maintaining physical function, stability, and flexibility. Strength training also contributes to cognitive performance(doing the crossword) and can benefit our mood and mental health.



So what are you waiting for?? Listen to the end for Nikkiey's top tips for muscle building and nutrition.
