There is SO much information being thrown at women about how we're apparently supposed to train once we hit perimenopause.

Lift heavy
Sprint
Don't do too much cardio
Train differently
Never do this
You MUST do that

It can make you feel like everything you've ever done suddenly stopped working the minute your hormones started changing.

It didn't!!

One thing the evidence continues to support very strongly is resistance training.

As we move through our 40s, 50s and beyond, maintaining muscle, strength and bone health becomes increasingly important, and progressive resistance training is one of the best tools we have.

But that doesn't mean every woman in perimenopause suddenly needs to train as heavy as physically possible.

Your training still needs to take into account your experience, goals, recovery, health, injuries, sleep, symptoms and what you can consistently do.

Some women can train hard and heavy

Some need to manage recovery differently

Some are beginners and need to learn how to squat before worrying about how much is on the bar

And ALL of those women can make progress

There isn't a magical “menopause workout”

There is good programming, progressive overload, appropriate challenge and consistency

Not quite as exciting as another Instagram menopause rule... but much more useful

MEET ANGELA

You may have already seen Angela around The Studio, as she’s actually been one of our members for a wee while. This week, she steps onto the other side of the mat and joins our team as our new Yoga Instructor!

Angela has been teaching yoga for over 10 years, specialising in Hatha Vinyasa and Yin. She originally found yoga and Pilates through her own love of running and surfing and quickly discovered the benefits went well beyond flexibility, helping with movement, body awareness, recovery and simply taking some time to slow down and breathe.

Now in her 40s herself, Angela is passionate about helping women feel more confident and comfortable in their bodies and focus on what their bodies can do, rather than how they think they should look.

When she’s not on her mat, you’ll usually find her somewhere near the ocean, running, surfing or paddle boarding. And despite all that energy, apparently something that surprises people about her is that she’s actually very shy... so Studio ladies, make sure you give her a big welcome!

Angela’s first ALIGN Yoga class starts this week, and I’d love to see our current members come along, try something different and help us give her a proper Studio welcome.

And if you’re new to The Studio and have been looking for somewhere you can combine strength training with Yoga and Mat Pilates, without having to join three different places, come and have a chat with us.

We’re building a really lovely mix of training for women 40+, where getting stronger is still at the heart of what we do, but mobility, movement, recovery and looking after your body matter too.
Welcome to the team, Angela. We’re very happy and excited to have you here

Why We Don’t Believe in Fad Diets

Every year there’s a new miracle diet

No carbs

No fat

No fruit

Only meat

Only juice

Only eating between certain hours

… The list goes on!

Here’s the problem...

Most diets work for one reason

Not because of a magical food combination

Not because they “switch on fat burning.”

Not because they detox your body

They work because, in one way or another, they usually reduce how much you eat overall

When researchers compare different diets while keeping calories and protein similar, the differences in fat loss are often much smaller than the marketing would have you believe

That doesn’t mean every eating pattern is the same.

It means the best diet is the one you can actually stick to

At The Studio, we don’t tell you to cut out entire food groups.

We teach you how to eat in a way that’s enjoyable, flexible and sustainable

Because no one should spend the rest of their life afraid of bread or birthday cake.

Why We Don't Run 6-Week Challenges!

This one might surprise you

We could fill the studio with 6-week challenges

They're popular

They're great for marketing

And yes... they'd probably make us more money

So why don't we?

Because our goal isn't to help you lose 5kg in six weeks

Our goal is to help you keep it off five years from now!!

Quick-fix challenges often rely on doing more exercise than is sustainable while eating less food than is realistic

The result?

You lose weight

The challenge ends

Old habits return

The weight comes back

Research consistently shows that maintaining weight loss is often much harder than losing it in the first place. That's why we focus on building habits you can realistically continue long after a programme ends

Real success isn't measured by how much weight you lose in six weeks

It's measured by where you are in six years!!
