Heavy lifting with shorter sets is recommended for women in perimenopause and menopause, but jumping straight into that type of training can be risky.
In this episode, I’m sharing the roadmap to safely build up to lifting heavy - so you can get stronger while avoiding injury.

I’ll walk you through:

  • How heavy lifting with shorter sets is recommended in midlife
  • The importance of mastering technique before increasing weight
  • The role of intensity and “working to failure” in building muscle
  • Practical tips on adjusting your rep ranges and weights as your body adapts

If you’re ready to start lifting heavier but want to do it safely and sustainably, this episode offers a step-by-step guide to help you progress with confidence.
Tune in to learn how to set yourself up for strength, resilience, and long-term success!
