Start LOSING WEIGHT TODAY with my FREE eBook – The 5-0 Method, Weight Loss for Women over 50:

Has menopause (or perimenopause) got you wondering what happened to your body? You're eating the same, you're still working out, but suddenly you've put on some weight and your whole body is different!

I've got you, girlfriend.

If you want to lose weight over 50, cardio isn't the answer anymore!

Our hormones are changing, and the cold, hard truth is that we're losing muscle tone. That's part of the reason we're gaining fat – the more muscle you have, the more calories you're burning every minute of every day. Less muscle tone = more fat from the same amount of calories you've always eaten.

Yikes! So, what's a menopausal girl to do?

STRENGTH TRAINING.

Right here at home, with whatever dumbbells you have.
(Get my 3-pair set from Amazon with this affiliate link: )

We're building MUSCLE (which, by the way, is a slow process that needs regular practice, so be sure to come back to this workout at least once or twice a week!) to help our bodies burn fat. I've got a couple of complex exercises each for your UPPER BODY, LOWER BODY and ABS to make sure we get a full body burn.

And, we're having some fun, too – I mean, have you met me? This is a no-repeat, no jumping, all standing, TOTAL BODY workout with me, your best (and most talkative!) fitness friend.

  • Paula, I just today, May 13, 2020,discovered your video for seniors.Love it. I did go to a gym and worked with a trainer prior to all gyms closing. This made me feel that I could maintain my fitness level until [if] gyms open again. BTW I am 73 and altho my form want’s fancy today I could do all the exercises.

  • Amazing, straightforward strength. I switched between weights, so a great one for home where I have a variety. I appreciated the small amount of cardio in between sections, first to warm up the legs, then to shake then out! Rear leg lifts were a great challenge to keep it in the glutes: have to stay focused. Thank u!

  • That was just the right amount of challenge, i really enjoyed it. Thanks Pahla! Your energy and enthusiasm is infectious!

  • Awesome work out. I was doing extra steps along with her workout to at least get a mile walk in and i was able to do that with Pahla., because it was rainy outside. We have to get the moving in where and when we can. Keep Moving don’t Ever Give Up. Do what you can. Much Love! Take care of You!
