@fuelher_up: How to get your muscles back in perimenopause. My arms looked deflated at 49. I was working out but losing muscle anyway. Perimenopause accelerates muscle loss. Lower estrogen means muscle disappears faster. Here's how I got it back: One: Lift heavy - progressive overload is key. Two: Eat more protein - at least 100 grams daily. Three: Train four days, rest three - recovery matters more now. I'm stronger at 52 than I was at 40. I'm Jana Rose, perimenopause fitness coach. Comment MUSCLE if you want to maintain and grow your muscles after 40! #perimenopause #muscleloss #sarcopenia #womenover50 #buildmuscle
