The 10-Minute Heavy Lift
Why it matters
After menopause, women lose up to 20% of bone density in 5 years. Heavy resistance training (70–85% of max) is the most evidence-backed intervention.
The Science
Watson et al. (2018), J Bone Miner Res — high-intensity resistance training significantly improved bone mineral density in postmenopausal women.
"Lifting heavy is key to building muscle, improving bone density, and boosting metabolism — especially for women in their 40s and beyond. Don't be afraid to push yourself!"
