6. The mistake most women make with training after 40 with Phaedra Kennedy
You don’t need a perfect training plan.You need a plan that actually works with your body.In this episode, I sit down with Phaedra Kennedy - endurance coach and athlete - for a conversation about what really changes when you’re training through perimenopause and menopause.This is a topic that comes up constantly.Women feel like their body isn’t responding the way it used to.Workouts that once worked… stop working.Recovery takes longer.Injuries show up more easily.And the default response is often to do more.Push harder. Add more sessions. Try to force progress.This conversation takes a different approach.Phaedra shares her own experience of moving through menopause while training - including the physical changes, the mental challenges, and the unexpected loss of motivation that can come with it.We talk about what actually works now, and what needs to change.In this episode, we explore:Why more training is not always betterHow recovery becomes the foundation of performanceWhat “flexible consistency” looks like in real lifeWhy strength training is essential - even for endurance athletesHow to fuel properly (and why carbs matter more than you think)The role of sleep, stress, and nervous system regulationHow to adapt your training without losing your goalsOne of the biggest takeaways:You don’t need to follow your plan perfectly.You need to learn how to adjust based on what your body is telling you.If you want support navigating this stage of life:Join my free community → #womenwhomove Download my free guide → Fueling for Hormones & Metabolic Health Reminder: This podcast is for educational purposes only and is not a substitute for personalized medical advice.Connect with Phaedra:Instagram: @coach.p.k Website: www.pkperformancecoaching.comSubscribe, rate, and review to help more women understand what’s actually possible.
