Empower Yourself Through Perimenopause and Menopause with EMS Whole Body Training.

As a woman between the ages of 35 and 60, you may notice significant changes in your body. Perimenopause and menopause mark an essential transition in your life. Understanding these changes can empower you to take control of your health during this time.

I too am a woman in this age bracket (I’m nearly 50). I am becoming more and more aware that my youthful athletic well functioning body is changing. I realised a while back that I needed to do all I can to be the best version of me as I head towards menopause. I also realised I needed to prepare myself for middle and older age so I can maintain independence, mobility and strength to enable me to keep enjoying life in general and being able to keep physically and mentally healthy.

Did you know perimenopause can begin as early as your 30s? During this time female hormones levels fluctuate.

Oestrogen and progesterone, the two primary female hormones, begin to decline. This can lead to various symptoms.

You might experience some or all of the following symptoms:

Hormonal Changes And There Impact

In perimenopause, your oestrogen levels can drop significantly, resulting in irregular periods and other symptoms.

Once menopause is reached (defined as 12 consecutive months without a menstruating period) your oestrogen levels continue to decline.

Lower oestrogen levels can lead to various health risks including:

With your body going through various changes it can impact the quality of your life. Every woman needs a conscious shift in focus towards their physical and mental health and well-being becomes vital to navigate the transition successfully.

The Importance of Strength Training

Research shows that strength training can play a crucial role in managing the symptoms of perimenopause and menopause.

A study published in the Journal of Women’s Health found that women who participated in regular strength training saw significant improvements in mood and reported fewer hot flushes.

Strength training increases muscle mass and boosts metabolism, which can help mitigate weight gain. According to the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, postmenopausal women who regularly engage in strength training maintain better muscle mass than those who don’t. Lean muscle mass is important to your overall health to keep you moving well, strong, independent, mobile and to prevent falls resulting in pain and injury.

Building strength has the additional benefit of combatting osteoporosis. The National Osteoporosis Foundation states that weight-bearing exercises fortify your bones. Strong bones lower your risk of fractures (broken bones), enhancing your overall quality of life.

EMS Whole Body Training: A Game Changer for Women

I learnt about EMS Whole Body Training two years ago now. It has literally been life changing for me. It has literally transformed my low back pain, given me my athletic shape back and I feel more energised.

EMS Whole Body Training uses electrical impulses to stimulate your muscles during workouts. EMS Whole Body Training activates 98% of all muscle fibres, which is something traditional strength training cannot achieve on its own.

This means you can achieve better muscle engagement with shorter training durations.

Multiple studies have found that effective strength training using EMS Whole Body Training improves muscle tone, increases lean muscle mass, reduces fat mass and boosts energy.

How Building Strength Affects You as a Woman

When you build strength, you not only improve your physical appearance but also your physical and mental well-being.

Studies show that strength training can reduce anxiety and depression—common issues during perimenopause and menopause.

One study in the Journal of Aging and Physical Activity found that women who engaged in strength training reported higher life satisfaction and reduced symptoms of depression. This can lead to a more enjoyable daily experience.

Strong muscles help you perform everyday tasks with ease. Whether it’s carrying groceries or climbing stairs, strength gives you the confidence to maintain an active lifestyle.
