About this episode:

Seeing results in the weight room does not happen overnight. It takes time – especially if you’re in perimenopause or menopause. So, it’s important for you to be doing the right things, and doing them right.

In episode #35 of 40+ Fitness for Women, I look at four key reasons why you might not be seeing results in the weight room. I explain why these are important and how you can fix them.

They are:

1. Exercise selection
2. Swapping exercises too frequently
3. Not applying progressive overload
4. Too low intensity in your training

Enjoy the show!
