This 35-minute full body superset workout is built to help women in perimenopause and menopause build muscle, support bone density, and feel strong β using moderate to heavy dumbbells with no repeated exercises. If you've been looking for an osteoporosis-friendly strength workout that actually challenges you, this is it.
π₯ WHAT WE'RE DOING:
Superset format | 40 seconds per move | 20-second transitions
No repeated exercises | Moderate to heavy dumbbells | Bench optional but recommended
πͺ EQUIPMENT NEEDED:
β Variety of dumbbells (15β45 lbs range)
β Bench (chair or mat works too)
β Yoga mat
π§ TODAY'S WORKOUT IS FUELED BY ECHO HYDROGEN WATER
Recovery matters just as much as the workout. I'm using the Echo Water Flask for hydrogen water, which may help support recovery, reduce oxidative stress from training, and support sleep, gut health, and inflammation β all things that get harder to manage in perimenopause.
