Does it ruin our knees, hips and backs? Is it true that in perimenopause and menopause, you should train ONLY one way: Very low repetitions and very heavy weights?  Should women train differently than men? And should women change their workouts based on their cycle? What if you get BULKY? and look like a MAN as a result of weight lifting? Should women ONLY lift weights, or is there any benefits to more athletic training and cardio too?   Whether you're a seasoned gym-goer or just starting out on your fitness  journey, this video is for you!     Check out my FREE 14-day course Strong + Sensitive, meant for Highly Sensitive People and people with TMS: https:\/\/kerstenkimura.lpages.co\/ss-14-day-course\/ This course combines mindset tools + FREE strength training workouts!   Emotionally Fit is my new emotional healing program for chronic pain or other chronic symptom recovery.
