During menopause, women are more vulnerable to changes like increased inflammation, loss of muscle, fat gain, and metabolic slowdown — especially if activity levels drop.
Here’s how you can take action today:
👣 Start with small steps — add 5- or 10-minute walks, stretch breaks, or gentle bodyweight exercises
💃Choose activities you enjoy (dance, swimming, walking, gardening, yoga) so you’ll keep going
💪 Include strength training (resistance bands, weights, bodyweight moves) 2+ times per week
🛋️ Break up long sedentary periods — stand, move, stretch
🩺 Ask your GP whether combining exercise with other strategies (e.g. hormonal therapy) might be safe and helpful for you.
