Always training, barely recovering?

Then you’re working half the plan.

🏋️ You break your body down in the gym
🛌 You build it back during recovery

Yet most women over 35 skip the most crucial part: recovery.

Here’s what that looks like:

😴 Poor sleep, waking up groggy
📈 Cortisol sky-high all day
🧁 Craving junk by 3pm
📉 Weight loss stalls, no matter how clean you eat
🔥 Joints feel inflamed, workouts start to backfire

Sound familiar?

The root isn’t your workout routine.

The root is how your body copes with stress…and repairs after effort.

So what shifts when you focus on true recovery?

Here’s what works:

🥗 Eat BEFORE and AFTER training — fuel signals recovery
🧘‍♀️ Add 10 mins of mobility before and after workouts
📅 Block “you time” in your calendar like any meeting
🌄 Start the day with 10 minutes of peace — no noise, no phone
🚫 Skip the cold plunge if the travel stresses you out
🔇 Drive home in silence after the gym — enjoy the stillness

You don’t need hours in a spa or expensive gadgets.

You need to own your time. Especially if you’re over 40. Hormones don’t recover unless you do.

This shift doesn’t take more effort. It takes less.

Less guilt. Less noise. Less pressure to do it all.

Want to rebuild your energy, improve your results, and stop running on low?

Start with 10 quiet minutes tomorrow morning.

It adds up faster than you think.

Start now and watch what changes.

Still not losing weight—despite eating clean and training hard?

Here’s why:

💤 Poor sleep
🔥 High stress
📉 Skyrocketing cortisol levels
🔄 Zero focus on recovery

You don’t build muscle or burn fat during your workouts.

You do it after.

That means your results come from recovery. But most women ignore it.

Especially during perimenopause and menopause, when your body becomes hypersensitive to stress and needs MORE recovery—not less.

So what does effective recovery look like?

🍳 Eating around your workouts (before + after matters)
🧘‍♀️ Daily mobility—yes, foam rolling counts
🕰️ Blocking off 10 minutes of alone time (no kids, no phone, no noise)
📅 Treating your training like a meeting—it’s non-negotiable
🔇 Turning off your car radio sometimes, so your brain isn’t overstimulated

No, you don’t need a $20,000 cold plunge or a fancy sauna.

You need to stop letting guilt steal your recovery.

Because less cortisol = better hormones = better fat loss.

The secret isn’t doing more.

It’s finally letting yourself do less—and letting that be enough.

Struggling with this balance?
