ARE YOU OVER 40 AND FEELING LIKE YOUR BODY IS CHANGING?
You’re training hard, watching what you eat, but the results aren’t what they used to be.
Hormonal changes could be a contributing factor.
FOR MEN:
Testosterone typically declines gradually with age, potentially affecting muscle mass, body composition and energy.
FOR WOMEN:
Oestrogen fluctuations during perimenopause and declining levels after menopause can affect sleep, fat distribution and bone health.
But hormones aren’t the only factor.
Your training, nutrition, activity levels and recovery still matter.
WHAT CAN YOU DO? Prioritise resistance training Eat sufficient protein Manage your calorie intake Improve sleep quality Stay consistently active
You can’t stop every hormonal change, but you can take control of your approach.
Persistent symptoms should be assessed by a healthcare professional rather than automatically attributed to hormonal changes.
