Hi! I’m Hailey :) If you're new here, these are my best practices for training peri- and postmenopausal women through Power Happens! This approach is a blend of evidence-based science and 15 years of real coaching with women over 35. What makes me unique? I collaborate with industry experts who are much smarter than I am on my programs and courses. Dr. Stacy Sims is one of them. I seek out the best and bring them on board to educate you on programming, nutrition, hormones, recovery, and more. I rely on those leaders, and I also have my own views I want to share. I'm not a medical doctor and I don't hold a PhD. More than 50,000 women from around the world have purchased a program from me, which gives me a hell of a lot of real-life experience working with the women in my community. Here are my non-negotiables for training peri- and postmenopausal women in Power Happens: There are no absolutes. There isn't one way to train a woman at this age. I can give broad recommendations, but there are a ton of variables to consider when determining what is best for her. There is no single diet or exact set of macros or calories for someone in menopause. There is a range, and there are also many questions about an individual's preferences and tolerances that could change those ratios. I train peri- and postmenopausal women in all rep ranges. I believe in and follow the principles of progressive overload and periodized training throughout the calendar year. You get different benefits from different rep ranges. And you have to earn the right to lift heavy. Women should train in all cardio zones. There is a time and place for every zone, but you need a solid cardio base before adding intervals to your programming. Never discount something that works for you. If something is working, why would you change it? If you haven't been lifting regularly with good programming for under a year (about 0 to 15 months), you are a beginner. Intermediate is around 12 to 18 months, closer to 18 honestly. Advanced is 2+ years. Don't rush these stages. Every woman should complete a foundations program yearly. So... what are you waiting for?
