How to Do 'Cardio' in Midlife

from Midlife Mommas: A Girlfriends Approach to Life After Menopause · host Amelia & Cam

Cardio: cardiovascular exercise. We've heard it our whole adult lives: "Get your Cardio in!" In the 1980's and 90's, we cardioed ourselves to death. Whether Jane Fonda-ing, running or crossfitting, we were all in for ALL of it! In fact, truth be told, many of us overdid it. We didn't completely understand the value of strength training while we were enjoying those endorphin-crazed workouts.But things are different in midlife. While we still need movement to work our heart muscle, it doesn't have to be at quite the intensity nor the frequency that we did it in our 20's and 30's.Join us for this really valuable talk on what 'cardio' should look like in midlife. We give you the truth about what excessive cardio exercise does to your hormones, your sleep and your insulin response. We give you recommendations on what a healthy dose of cardio looks like and some suggestions on how to do it. We hope that you enjoy this episode!Stay Connected!AmeliaWebsite:  https://www.thehelpfulplate.com/IG: https://www.instagram.com/thehelpfulplate/CamWebsite: https://www.camoyler.com/IG: https://www.instagram.com/heymomma_cam/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@heymomma_camMidlife Mommas IG: https://www.instagram.com/midlife.mommas/Please share, rate, and review the podcast.  We appreciate you! ❤️
