    Menopause fitness researchers can help you separate the science from the endless stream of fitness advice aimed at women in midlife.

    But here’s the catch: even highly respected researchers don’t always agree, and that doesn’t necessarily mean someone is wrong.

    In this episode, you’ll meet several leading voices, learn where their research overlaps and differs, and get a better filter for deciding what deserves your attention. The goal isn’t to blindly follow an expert—it’s to become a smarter consumer of fitness information.

    By the end, you’ll know exactly how to use menopause fitness researchers as a guide without letting another expert—or another viral post—do your thinking for you.

    If you still want to target both building muscle and losing fat in menopause stay with me!

    Know how to work with protein, calorie restriction, sleep, exercise, and hormone therapy. You’ll hear why eating more protein could help you get more from your training, why perpetual dieting may not be the answer, and why sleep deserves a much bigger seat at the table.

    Be ready to stop fighting your body and start working with it, this conversation offers a fresh perspective on building muscle and losing fat in menopause.

    My Guest:

    Dr. Bill Campbell is a Professor and Director of the Performance & Physique Enhancement Laboratory at the University of South Florida.

    His research focuses on improving exercise performance and physique enhancement within a maintainable lifestyle. His pioneering research includes dietary protein intakes to optimize body composition, rapid fat loss strategies, and weight loss resistance in women going through the menopause transition. His research laboratory recently completed the largest menopause fitness survey ever conducted.

    Questions We Answer in This Episode:

    Why can weight loss become harder during menopause, even when you’re doing the same things that worked before?

    What does the research actually show about protein and body composition, especially muscle gain and fat loss?

    How much protein is enough, and is there a point where more protein stops providing additional muscle-building benefits?

    Could years of calorie restriction and perpetual dieting make fat loss harder in midlife?

    Can sleep affect the ability to build muscle and lose body fat during menopause?

    Does hormone therapy directly affect muscle and fat loss, or does it help in other ways?

    If you’re overwhelmed by all the menopause fitness advice, what three things should you focus on first?

    Why isn’t it working when you’re putting in the time, doing the workouts, and still not seeing the results you want?

    If you’re already lifting but your strength, muscle, or body composition has hit a frustrating plateau, your training may need a smarter strategy.

    After 40, effort, volume, progressive overload, training close to failure, and recovery become even more important to getting results from your workouts. Take a closer look at what experienced lifters may be missing.

    If you’ve been wondering why isn’t it working, it may be time to change how you train. Resistance training for advanced lifters requires a different strategy.

    Where do I even start when I want to get stronger but have no idea what to do first?

    What’s the difference between resistance training if you’re a beginner (or starting again) vs you’re an experienced lifter?

    Resistance training for a beginner doesn’t have to mean sore muscles, heavy weights, or wondering if you’re doing it “right.” In fact, the smartest way to get stronger may be to slow down and learn the movement before you ever load it up.’

    Let me know you’re listening.. or ask me “Where do I even start?” Send me a DM on Instagram, maybe you prefer Facebook, join the Flipping 50 Insider Community Facebook Group, or if you’re one of our VIP members you can use your group inside Flipping 50: The Stronger Way app on Apple or Android.
