This program is suitable for anyone with at least a little barbell experience who wants to build strength, muscle & bone, power, and mobility -- which coincidentally, covers all of the most beneficial musculoskeletal training elements for women in mid-life. Menopause doesn't require a special "Meno-Specific Program.
What DOES make this program unique:
It offers flexibility for varying energy levels that happen with Peri-menopause. Some exercises are labeled as "Time & Energy-permitting" for those harder days.
This program offers what you need MOST, but more importantly, virtually NONE of the sorta effective-ish gray zone fluff that may or may not result in progress, but will definitely make you MORE tired, hungry, and annoyed.
It efficiently yet thoroughly presents demo video info as if you've never done an exercise before, because most of us have never been invited to Lift before now.
