DAY 6: Welcome to the Menopause Strength Plan, here we're exploring the critical role of protein for women in all stages of menopause. This video explains how protein helps with muscle building, boosts your metabolism, supports your hormones and contributes to overall women's health. We'll also cover a range of swaps for processed protein options suce as protein bars, yoghurts and shakes and give you some delicious protein swaps that you can easily make at home to support your journey.
The Menopause Strength Plan is a structured approach to strength, nutrition, and wellbeing designed to support women through all stages of menopause - from perimenopause through to post menopause.
If you’re feeling tired, overwhelmed, or unsure how to exercise and look after yourself at this stage of life, you’re in the right place. This channel focuses on realistic, supportive workouts and guidance that fit around real life — not extremes or perfection.
This session is about feeling capable and strong — not pushing through exhaustion.
Throughout January, sessions are released as part of a weekly rhythm:
Strength • Nutrition • Strength • Wellness • Strength
This structure helps you build strength while supporting recovery, energy, and long-term consistency.
You’re encouraged to work at your own pace and take options where needed. If you’re managing injuries or health conditions, always choose what feels right for your body.
If you’d like to train with me regularly, you can explore the rest of the Menopause Strength Plan here on the channel, or join the community for ongoing structured workouts and support.
