Not fair!

It is SO annoying how much better I sleep when I don’t eat ice cream and watch murder mysteries before bed. ⁠
⁠
🙄🙄🙄⁠
⁠
I mean... can't a girl live a little!? 🙈⁠
⁠
Unfortunately, my body does not care how fun those things are.⁠
⁠
When I skip them it almost always rewards me with better sleep.⁠
⁠
And that's kind of how sleep goes.⁠
⁠
While we can’t fully control how much sleep we get (or how good it is), we can absolutely do things to stack the deck in our favor of getting good sleep.⁠
⁠
Wanna know what they are?⁠

⁠
and I’ll DM you access to our Women & Sleep Cheat Sheet.⁠
⁠
It contains 20 (!!) research-backed actions you can take to increase the likelihood that you can get more and/or better sleep.⁠
⁠
This is especially important if you're in perimenopause or menopause — a time when researchers estimate that ~35-60% of menopausal women struggle with poor sleep (e.g. falling asleep, staying asleep, or both). ⁠
⁠
So if you’re struggling to sleep — and it’s making you feel terrible — you’re not alone, and there IS hope!⁠

Don’t do nothing ➡️ AKA Do something.

That’s the mindset behind everything we teach.

You don’t need the perfect setup.
You don’t need 90 free minutes.
You just need to start: where you are, with what you’ve got.

✅ One mobilization
✅ One walk
✅ One small choice to move toward readiness

Because a little bit of consistency will beat a whole lot of nothing… every time.

⁠
Wondering if it’s too late to build strong, dense bones?⁠
⁠
Then keep reading!⁠
⁠
Women typically reach peak bone density between 25 and 30 — and bone density typically starts gradually decreasing around 35 — slowly at first, and then faster as estrogen production decreases leading toward menopause.⁠
⁠
While ~80% of our peak bone mass is determined by genetics, there’s good news...⁠
⁠
🌟 You can have a BIG impact on your bone density 🌟⁠
⁠
(Follow me, then comment “BONES” and I’ll send you our Menopause & Bone Density Cheat Sheet!) ⁠
⁠
4 bone-density facts:⁠
⁠
1️⃣ Starting exercise before 35 (the earlier the better) increases your peak bone mineral density and bone mass — meaning you have more to work with if & when levels start to decline. ⁠
⁠
2️⃣ For years experts thought women could only slow the inevitable decline in bone density after menopause. However, a 2020 systematic review & meta-analysis suggests it IS possible to increase bone density in post-menopausal women. Hell! Yes!⁠ Strong bones for everyone!⁠
⁠
3️⃣ The best exercises for improving bone density are high-impact exercises, weight-bearing exercises, and resistance training. And intensity > duration. In other words, go harder, not longer.⁠
⁠
4️⃣ A high protein diet can help us maintain good bone density. ⁠

Don’t underestimate the power of doing really simple things consistently over a long period of time.⁠
⁠
Walking, sleeping, eating protein and vegetables, getting sunshine, laughing with people you love — they might not get attention on Instagram — but they work.⁠
⁠
Gimme a ❤️ or a 👏🏻 if you agree.

I love this! And agree 100%

Women deserve to live full, adventurous lives not stunted by the fear that our bodies aren't good enough, lean enough, small enough. ❤️

Yes!!!!!

Did you know that Lifting Heavy Sh*t gives you better blood pressure control and can help hot flashes?

Heavy lifting improves your cardiovascular health. For years, the conventional wisdom was that you lift for your muscles and do cardio for your heart. But resistance training is good for your heart too. It increases your vascular compliance (your blood vessels dilating and constricting more readily), giving you better blood pressure control, better blood flow to and from your muscles, and better blood flow to and from your skin. Improvements in vascular control are important during menopause because as estrogen declines, your risk for cardiovascular disease goes up. These improvements can also help with hot flashes.
