Why Cardio Isn’t Working Anymore: How to Boost Your Metabolism After 40 | 53

If you’re over 40 and doing more workouts than ever, but still not losing weight this episode is for you.Many women in midlife believe: “If I just exercise more, I’ll burn more fat.”But here’s the truth: workouts account for a small percentage of your total daily calorie burn. And during perimenopause and menopause, excessive cardio and undereating  and dieting can actually make fat loss harder.In this episode, we break down what really drives metabolism after 40, and how to stop relying on cardio as your strategy.In This Episode, You’ll Learn:• What TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure) means • How BMR impacts metabolism after 40 • Why workouts only account for 5–10% of calorie burn • How daily movement (walking, steps, NEAT) supports fat loss • Why strength training protects muscle and metabolism • How stress and sleep impact midlife weight lossWhen you protect muscle, manage stress, move consistently, and understand your numbers, fat loss becomes calm, predictable, and sustainable.Hey Beautiful!
