Is your metabolism slowing down after 40? Here’s how to reset your engine for strength, energy, and longevity.”
Turning 40 often comes with unwelcome changes—weight creeps up, energy dips, and workouts don’t deliver like they used to. The culprit? A slower metabolism. But here’s the good news—you can reverse these changes.
Here’s how we help you at Poseidon Performance in Dartmouth:
1. Build Back Muscle with Strength Training
Muscle loss accelerates with age, so we focus on resistance work to rebuild and boost your resting calorie burn.
2. Don’t Skip Protein
High protein intake supports muscle repair and burns more calories during digestion.
3. Keep Moving—Consistently
Whether it’s post-meal walks, local cycling, or a light coastal swim, every activity counts.
4. Prioritise Sleep & Manage Stress
Elevate your recovery game with better sleep and stress relief—lower cortisol means less unwanted fat storage.
At Poseidon, our small groups (max 6 people) and fusion of rehab, S&C, and elite coaching ensure you get results that matter.
