🎙️ Episode 74: Training Smarter Through Perimenopause — What the Science (and Real Life) Tells Us

In this episode of the Building Thriving Lifestyles Podcast, Eik dives into how to train, fuel, and recover through perimenopause — one of the most under-discussed yet transformative stages of life.

Drawing on the work of Dr. Stacy Sims and real client stories, we unpack what’s really happening with your hormones, metabolism, and energy — and how to adapt your workouts for strength, performance, and long-term health.

💪 Key takeaways:

  • Why “more is better” backfires during perimenopause

  • The best mix of strength, HIIT, and recovery sessions

  • How to fuel with protein, carbs, and healthy fats for hormonal balance

  • Supplements that actually help — like creatine, magnesium, and vitamin D

  • Why sleep and stress are your new performance superpowers

✨ Perimenopause isn’t a setback — it’s a reset. Train smarter, not harder, and build strength that lasts.
