#98: Q&A: Training after Illness, Lifting Straps, Boredom with Weight Training, and My HRT Journey

40+ Fitness: Weight training, fat loss & fitness tips for Women in perimenopause & menopause

In this episode of 40+ Fitness for Women, I’m answering questions submitted by my followers about training, equipment, and hormone replacement therapy.

I answer these questions:

1. How to get back into training after being sick?
2. Do I use lifting straps, and when would I recommend them?
3. How can weight training sessions be made less boring?
4. Am I on hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and what’s my experience with it?

Do you have a question you’d like me to answer in a future episode? Drop me a DM on Instagram - I’d love to hear from you!
