Muscles: Use It or Lose It

In previous episodes we learned what happens to our muscles during menopause and with use of GLP-1s. Let’s look now at how we prevent and/or reverse these changes. Today’s episode will cover the different forms of resistance training and the different effects each type of training has on our bodies. It’s going to get a little technical this week but stick with us as this will lead us into next month’s episode on how to put this all into practice whether you already work out regularly or are new to exercise.
