How do we get past plateaus in our training? If you've ever wondered how to keep progressing on the foundation you've built, or have questions about a specific program or how to tailor your training to your life stage (cycling years, perimenopause or post menopause), this episode is for you.
I'm talking you through how your body responds and adapts to the stimulus you give it, and why you'll need to change that stimulus as you get stronger - and as your hormone status changes over time.
In this episode, I’m exploring….
⭐️ How to build a strong foundation and meet yourself where you’re at ⭐️ Ramping it up with either more time, or more resistance ⭐️ Getting more specific in your rep ranges ⭐️ The importance of applying your life stage to how you ramp up your training - custom guidance for your cycling years, progressing for perimenopause and progressing post-menopause ⭐️ How our training can exacerbate underlying imbalances from our daily life activities without good guidance ⭐️ The value of adding self care, mobility, yoga and stretching to your routine ⭐️ How to follow a customized program for your life stage
