Menopause brings a wave of changes—fatigue, stubborn weight gain, mood swings, and muscle loss. But here’s the good news: strength training can help rebalance your body and give you back control.

Here’s how it works:

  • Muscle fights fat: Lifting weights helps combat fat storage caused by estrogen decline.
  • Strength training boosts mood: It supports serotonin and dopamine production, which can ease mood swings.
  • You’ll build bone strength: Women lose bone density rapidly after 40—lifting helps reverse it.
  • It reignites your metabolism: More muscle = higher calorie burn, even at rest.

FIIT CULTURE programs are built with women 40+ in mind. You’ll never be thrown into a one-size-fits-all workout. Instead, you’ll get expert coaching, a supportive environment, and results that last.
