08 Jul 2025
Do You Know What’s Driving Your Hormone Symptoms? Take the first step to balance your hormones naturally with my FREE Hormone Symptom Profile Assessment: https://bit.ly/takemyhormonequiz You’re not imagining it—strength training can make the scale go up before it goes down. In fact, 40% of midlife women say they’ve quit a workout routine because they didn’t see results fast enough. But what if the weight gain isn’t failure… it’s feedback? In this week's episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on 5 science-backed strategies to reverse scale creep from strength training—and turn all your efforts in the gym into visible results. In this episode, I’ll answer your most-asked questions including: ✅ “Why am I gaining weight from lifting weights in perimenopause?” ✅ “Scale jumps from workouts: water retention or fat?” ✅ “Does chronic inflammation stall fat loss even with lifting?” ✅ “Can overtraining keep cortisol high and block fat loss?” ✅ “How do I reset my cortisol curve after strength workouts?” ✅ “Best post-lift routines to reduce bloating and scale spikes?” ✅ “How long until I see muscle gains instead of weight gain on the scale?” If you’ve been lifting weights—but you’re starting to wonder if lifting is actually making things worse🤦🏼♀️—this episode is for you. 🎧 — Episodes Mentioned: EP 80 | Is Strength Training Making You Gain Weight in Perimenopause?
