strength training postmenopause
Strength training is particularly essential for postmenopausal women. As estrogen levels decrease, women lose muscle mass and experience reduced bone density, making them more prone to fractures and falls. Strength training helps rebuild muscles and bone density, maintain healthy weight, and improve overall health.
It involves lifting weights or using resistance bands to work muscles and stimulate bone growth. Regular strength training can help maintain bone health and improve balance while reducing the risk of fractures.
Strength training has also been shown to improve mood, reduce stress, and lead to better sleep quality, making it a valuable part of postmenopausal self-care.
