I have said it a million times and here it is again, we are so different from men and women are NOT small men.
The lives we lead are different and getting and staying fit and healthy as a middle-aged woman is completely different than it is for a man.
Not just physically and biologically, but societal norms and our internal value system differs a lot.
Crush the patriarchy by reclaiming your time, hobbies and self care!
You are allowed to do things for yourself without guilt and the more we practice centering ourselves from time to time-the easier it gets.
Who is with me on this and did you ask your partner?

Midlife metabolism is different, but your body still works as it should!
The first step to change is to look at the facts of your habits. To get to a different place, first we need to know where we are.
The second big thing to consider is the timeline. The fast changes from your 20-s and that the diet industry try to sell is not realistic or sustainable so if it doesn't work, it's not your fault!
Figure out the facts of your sleep, nutrition and movement and then change it, step by step.
If you want support and to bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be without setbacks- send me a DM and we can set up a complimentary video call to see if my coaching is a good fit for you.
All or something ladies!
Consistency will beat perfection. It's all about building habits that supports your health.
Imagine if you did 10 pushups each morning for a year. That is 3650 pushups. Do you think you would get stronger from that?

Progress is progress!
Got a Dexa scan done yesterday and I'm celebrating positive change even if it's not moving as fast as I would have liked.
Since October last year I have gained 4,4 lbs of lean mass and reduced body fat by 2%
I have also maintained (mostly) my fat loss (almost 20 lbs!) from early 2025.
I struggle with joint pain and an autoimmune condition and can't lift as heavy as I would need to for faster progress. At 46, I would have been looking at muscle loss instead of gain without the training I do so with that consideration this is great results!
For the coming 3 months I will continue my 4 day upper/lower split with 3 sets of 10 reps on most exercises.
I will track my protein and calories to see that I get enough nutrients to build.
I will continue the HRT (progesterone, estradiol and now also testosterone)
I will prioritize sleep and do brisk walking for cardio to not stress my joints.
Right now I focus on building muscle as my only goal. I don't add fat loss and to get better at jumping rope to the mix because that will just get in the way of my progress.
You can apply this pattern to your own journey:
1. Get the facts on where you are at today.
2. Focus on ONE goal that is the most important one for you for the coming 3 months.
4. Figure out what habits will move you the most towards your goal
3. Create a plan with what really matters and that fits into your life.
Where do you want to be at the end of October? A lot can happen in 12 weeks!

Change is hard!
Most of us know what we want and what we need to do in order to get it.
The gap between knowing and doing is what we need to bridge.
Small tweaks compound over time. Even just 1%better is still an improvement!
Step by Step is the way to go 😉
Myth Busting Monday!
We are drowning in information and it's challenging to know what to do these days.
I want to clear up a few things and give my common sense Nordic perspective on nutrition in general and carbs in particular.
