Why Do I Look Skinny Fat After 35? Belly Fat and HOW to Fix It- Day 63
The Body Recomposition Revolution | Fat Loss and Strength for Women 35+Show Notes
Hormones and weight gain after 35: do estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, thyroid changes and perimenopause actually cause belly fat, muscle loss or a slower metabolism? Day 63 is your hormone-week cheat sheet. We’re pulling together what the research actually says about hormonal weight gain, belly fat, muscle loss, metabolism and body composition during perimenopause and menopause. One of the most surprising findings? In the SWAN study, women’s rate of fat gain roughly doubled while lean mass declined during the menopause transition, yet their rate of weight gain did not significantly accelerate. Translation: the scale can stay similar while your body changes significantly. We recap thyroid, estrogen, testosterone, progesterone and perimenopause, then finish with a simple 8-step action plan for what you can actually control: lift, eat enough protein, move, train your heart, protect your sleep, track trends, treat real medical issues and get curious about your labs.
TODAY’S 3 RECOMP TARGETS 💪 LIFT: Schedule next week’s strength workouts. 🥩 PROTEIN: Prep your protein before the week starts. 📊 TRACK: Pick one meaningful metric beyond scale weight and start collecting data.
