Strength Training In Your 40’s: The Squat 💪

Think about how often you’re squatting in daily life at this stage:
🪑 getting up and down from chairs or the couch
🛒 lifting shopping bags from the floor
👟 picking things up without having to kneel
🧺 loading and unloading washing

The squat trains the legs, hips, and core to handle these movements safely — while also providing essential bone loading through the hips and spine before menopause.

How to do it well:
✔️ Stand with feet about hip–shoulder width apart
✔️ Sit back and down like you’re lowering onto a chair
✔️ Keep your chest tall and heels on the floor
✔️ Push through your heels to stand back up

If you’d like a bit more guidance with lifting or want someone to check your technique, feel free to give us a call on 9907 9667 to book a session with our Exercise Physiologist, Hannah 💛

Strength Training In Your 40s: The Overhead Press 💪

Think about how often you’re pressing in daily life at this stage:
✈️ lifting a suitcase into the overhead locker
📦 putting boxes away on high shelves
🎒 lifting kids’ or teens’ heavy school bags
🙌 reaching overhead with load, not just your arm

The overhead press trains the shoulders, upper back, arms, and core to handle these tasks safely — while also helping maintain bone density through the shoulders and spine before menopause.

How to do it well:
✔️ Stand up tall, not leaning back or slouching
✔️ Gently pull your belly button into your spine
✔️ Push the weights straight up until your arms are next to your ears
✔️ Slowly lower the weights back down, staying in control the whole time

If you’d like a bit more guidance with lifting or want someone to check your technique, feel free to give us a call on 9907 9667 to book a session with our Exercise Physiologist, Hannah 💛

A hip fracture isn’t just a broken bone, it’s often a major turning point in health.

In older adults, studies show that around 1 in 4 people may die within a year of a hip fracture, and many others never return to their previous level of function.

Building and maintaining strength earlier in life helps reduce the risk of serious injury. And structured exercise and strength training after a fall or injury play a critical role in recovery, helping people regain function, confidence, and independence.

Double leg vs single leg 🦵

Strong on two legs 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴𝘯’𝘵 always mean strong on one.

Split squats expose side to side differences, improve control and reduce injury risk. Making them essential for rehab and performance.

Save this for your next leg session. 💯🏋️

Something most women aren’t told: in perimenopause, hormone changes can speed up bone and muscle loss — before menopause even begins — making it harder to rebuild later!

The good news? Your 40s are the perfect time to build a buffer ✨

Strength training now means: • stronger bones 🦴 • better muscle mass 💪 • fewer aches & injuries later 🤸‍♀️

Follow along for next week’s video on the best exercises to start right now!

When we eat, glucose enters the bloodstream, that’s blood sugar.

Insulin acts like a key, moving glucose from the blood into muscle, where it’s used for energy or stored as glycogen (like a fuel tank)

If that tank is already full because muscles aren’t being used, blood sugar stays higher for longer.

The more healthy muscle we have and the more we use it, the larger that storage space becomes, making it easier to move glucose out of the bloodstream.

Over time, this helps improve blood sugar control and reduces the risk of metabolic disease and unwanted weight gain.
