Lovely thank you for the demo and follow along style, really enjoyed it! sound is a bit tinny?

Just 65 yrs old and diagnosed Osteoporosis. I run/trot 1.5 mi 3x's/wk and have been doing your 20 min strength training 3x's/wk for two mths now and love it. The ads are frustrating grrrr I use 5 lb weights. As per renegade row, I can't find a dumbbell that will give me enough height from the floor. I have to keep my thumbs down on the floor. You must be using heavier weights in order to have the 'taller' dumbbells, pls share? PS love the thunder :)

😊

So how much cardio should we do?

Why the 'jerking' with the bentover row?

Thanks!!

In regards to eating vegetables first, does that mean eating all of the vegetables before eating protein. For example if there is about 2 cups of green beans, should we eat all of those first or is it okay to eat a couple spoonsful and eat protein and come back to veggies?

❤❤❤❤

Loved this podcast. THANK YOU BOTH!

I struggle struggle struggle with staying consistently in calories. (Age 59/172lbs/5’81/2); I w/o 4-5 times a week, track my food in MFP, but am constantly set back by unplanned social event or spontaneous family get together or just the habit of eating more. Ant tips on getting off the nutritional rollercoaster mentally or physically? (PS: I,m not much of a cook so when I do prep it’s a lot of the same and gets mentally fatiguing-but I WANT this!)

Those shorts look like an oversized diaper

I am 48 so on my way! Thank you.

Thank you for all this information, I just started following your videos, I am learning a lot. You just answered few of my questions!! Thank you

Good video, great guidance, but weird sound and strange shots (next to plug, highchair in background).

Love your content! Thank you The only improvement - pls improve the sound quality Too much echo ❤

I don't see why workouts should change with age muscle is muscle?...... I don't like Joe Wicks workouts what does he know he is a celebrity and only interested in getting more followers so he will hop onto any subject that's current

Modifier for lunges? Toe arthritis wont bend that way

Do you have a full body weightpower plate workout?

No one has explained these as well as this lady. I will subscribe. 😊

Do you think doing back stretches before exercising would be helpful?

Great video!❤

Cottage cheese has 12 g., of protein per half cup, which is great if you can handle dairy. I'm so glad you're pro- protein from animal products. I so agree with you about intermittent fasting and poor (crazy) habits people have developed to stay thin or women who will do anything to get back to a decent weight... which is me. But you said something profound, I think it may be in this video or another, but, that is to look at things from a completely different perspective. What would it look like if I achieved perfect health: a natural equilibrium within myself where I a not doing any weird diet or incorporating weird / extreme eating habits.. I'm getting good sleep, my exercise is regular. This is where there is (would be) balance. If I was able to take the chains off and just shift into a way of being, and be more gentle on myself, would I then naturally be in great shape? Reversing the thinking and hearing you pose that scenario really made me think. I am 59, and about forty lbs over weight. Starting four months ago I made the decision to wake everyday and do easy to moderate exercise, but everyday and have not missed a day. My goal is to reverse muscle loss (though I am fairly muscular and very strong) and the changes are starting to be visible, but how I feel has really changed. I am coming out of a very stressful period of my life that lasted several years, and I know the weight gain is due to the stress and crazy sleep patterns, so I made a commitment to makes changes. I do 15lb. kettlebell exercises, and maybe elliptical 2x a week. I am avoiding pushing hard, so as not to produce cortisol and these are daily light to med. 10 - 20min workouts. I am.going to watch and increase my protein for sure. Just found your channel, great information!

CAN we train belly every day?? And rest saturday and sunday??

When I stopped the pill and found out I was on menopause, I no longer could do the weight lifting I was previously capable of. My ignorant doctor sent me to a rheumatologist who was also ignorant and tested me for auto-immune diseases. I told both, I. Need estrogen, no one listened. After exercising I had muscle pain as if a truck had rolled over my body.

Great video Debra! I totally agree that it is wonderful for any man to acknowledge and discuss menopause. 😊

Love your adorable pup, mom's busy my time to make my move. I also enjoy your workout videos, thank you.

really feel at 66 years young my WOs need to change.always have WO but cant do the same WO as I did in my 30s n 40s. am trying to do more weights without pain, and walk 8 to 12 k a day . trying to do 20 to 40 min of weight 5 days a week .(mostly upper body). very bad knees and neuropathy in my toes and feet, also do omad one meal a day .around 5pm

yup she is over 50. she used the term " The bomb"

Thank You Debra!

I totally agree that anyone willing to talk about menopause is at least raising awareness. This is such a neglected area of medicine and fitness! I’m grateful the conversation and research are finally happening.

This is the problem that I have. Connective tissues. I've never been much of an exerciser because I've always worked outside and my body feels best when I am moving but I am 63 years old and I am so sore after working, not when I'm working... I'm trying to figure this all out.

Thank you for such a timely video!

Thank you so much!

Such great advice! Restore before adding more. I beat myself up for not being able to do what I once could. The estrogen decline had a profound impact on many of my systems. I had to go to 4 doctors to get real help. I think many women need to hear what you’re saying. Thank you!!!

The worst thing I did when I entered menopause was to listen to KZbinrs telling me I couldn’t workout the same as I always have. I run at least 3 miles 6 days a week and lift weights. I scaled back with this, because I was told by KZbin I had to. Big mistake! I resumed my regular workouts and now I feel great again. Listen to your body not a KZbin influencer

Recently a male influencer took some heat for labeling videos "Menopause Workout." Here's my response to this! Is there? Should there be? and if so why? If what YOU'RE doing doesn't work right now, you'll like this 10 day challenge where I give you workouts.... AND teach you the way they impact your hormones. www.flippingfifty.com/hnb-challenge If you need a start, restart or reset and don't want "random" it's only open twice a year, but reviews are 4 and 5 star for thousands of women.

I always wake up with a stiff lower back so there’s no way I can think about exercising first thing. I have to give it time to warm up do I exercise between 10am and 12pm. Tfs

I know this routine was posted three years ago. While a good routine, there was a lot packed in to 20 minutes. Also, I understand the importance of functional movement, but there was too much getting up and sitting down. This routine could have been extended to 30 minutes, and that's still doable in a crunch.

Question about HRT… the women were talking about testosterone but I thought HRT was estrogen and progesterone? Also what are they being told by their doctors about the breast cancer risk? Thank you so much!

So helpful!!! Just turned 50 and whoa all the inflammation from doing what I've always done. Diving down all the rabbit holes to figure out how to get it under control. Thank you!

This was exactly what I needed. Thank you

What about a weighted belt for hip density.

😊thanks!

Sound and look yummy! Thank you for the recipes, blessings.🕊️🥰🙋🏻‍♀️💜tfs

New subscriber, hoping to get my flabby arms back into shape with your help!🙌🏽 Great workout, blessings.🕊️🥰🙋🏻‍♀️💜tfs

I have always had bad knees. After a bad knee injury playing tennis, I started strengthening muscles around the knees for better long term mobility. I discovered hip rotation exercises have actually helped with the knee pain. These stretches will add nicely to my routine. My recovery is actually quicker by focusing on my hips.

Genius!!! Now I can put it off a few hours lol ✝️

One gram of protein per pound of body weight? My God, I'd be eating 5,000 calories per day! I'll end up weighing 200 pounds at that rate! I agree I need more, but that just doesn't seem remotely attainable.

Great stretches, Thank you!❤

That was really fantastic, Debra. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
