The science is clear: during and after menopause, women are prone to losing muscle strength and bone density, resulting in a risk for falls, broken bones and loss of independence. Scary, right??
Here are the FAST FACTS: ALL standing, NO cardio | DUMBBELLS | MODERATE workout | INCLUDES warm up and cool down
But the fabulous news is that YOU can prevent bone and muscle loss with SIMPLE STRENGTH training workouts like this one!
We’re enjoying complex (but non-complicated!) exercises using multiple muscle groups for a super efficient and effective muscle- and bone-building routine that takes just under 25 minutes!
Repeat this workout (or something like it, with slow and controlled strength exercises using moderate to heavy dumbbells) 2-3x per week for best bone density and strength results.
