Training + Nutrition Strategies for Peri + Post Menopausal Endurance Athletes
If you are over 40 and have been training for a while, you will likely have noticed some unwelcome changes in your body and your performance. You can thank your hormones for that. Perimenopause and menopause can be difficult times for endurance athletes. Many women experience unwanted weight gain. A good nights sleep becomes harder and harder to come by. We start to lose strength, muscle mass and speed. That in turn can affect your mojo / desire to continue in your chosen sport. But, thankfully there has been lot of recent research into how we can mitigate some of these changes.
Join Coach Tara Postnikoff and I as we guide you through how your training should change as a masters athlete. In the second edition of this clinic will provide you with strategies to help you thrive as a masters athlete. We’re covering endurance training principles, strength protocols as well as discussions on how to optimize sleep, recovery, and nutrition.

WHAT PEOPLE SAID LAST YEAR
Enjoyable atmosphere as I was with like minded individuals.Tara and PK are not rigid in their approach and are pragmatic and realistic in helping athletes put their learnings into practice. This is really important – especially since Female Master Athletes have enough life pressures to contend with – LOL! You made it stress free and accessible for all. Both coaches adapted their content to meet the needs of the target audience. Strength exercises didn’t require having a gym membership and can be done at home. Nutrition covers a variety of options to suit any type of diet (carnivores, omnivores, etc.) and looks to expand conventional food offerings. I found the section on supplements quite valuable – especially given I do a lot of high-volume training and can’t possibly ingest all the foods I need to.
