Remember doing the fitness test in elementary school? 😂
It was my LEAST favorite day of the year - the sit-ups, running, flexibility, strength tests…
😏I can honestly share that the only part I could pass was the sit-ups.
It was a snapshot of where you were fitness-wise.
Not necessarily to tell you that you were “good” or “bad” at fitness, but to give you an idea of where you were strong and where you could improve.
And it got me thinking…Why did we stop doing that?!
Because as women, our bodies are changing as we move through our 40s and beyond. What we could do at 25 isn’t necessarily the best benchmark for what we should be able to do now.
I don’t want to know how skinny I can be anymore.
I want to know:
Can I squat?
Can I lift?
Can I push?
Can I carry heavy things?
Can I move powerfully?
Can I keep doing the things I love?
So I created a Perimenopause Strength Benchmark.
It’s not a pass/fail test. And there are no participation medals or ribbons. 😂
It’s simply a way to get a snapshot of where your strength and fitness are right now and identify where you might want to focus.
Because aging doesn’t mean we stop being strong.
It means we need to start paying attention to a different kind of strength. 💪
DM 💪 and I’ll send you the test.
