HWHR Healthy Woman Healthy Runner Method

How do you navigate the menopause transition and enjoy your running?We designed the Healthy Woman Healthy Runner Method as a way of helping midlife females manage the menopause transition whilst enjoying their running. If you're finding that your usual way of eating and training isn't giving you the results you desire, and that the menopause is getting in the way of you enjoying your running, in this episode we share a snap-shot of our method with you. We truly believe that you can’t be a good runner without being a healthy woman and in our experience midlife health changes and symptoms can be a limiting factor if not managed effectively.We don’t want women to suffer the experiences we had going through peri menopause and post menopause – so that was our driving force.If you would like to find out more about our Healthy Woman Healthy Runner Programme please book a FREE Discovery CallBook your place on our next FREE TRAINING: Learn all about our Healthy Woman Healthy Runner Method.You can choose either 12 noon or at 6pm (BST), whichever best suits your lifestyle.

They feel tired all the time and their sleep may be affected by night sweats and hot flushes. They may also be having erratic periods.Every woman has a different experience, but when you are used to feeling good, these changes can have a negative impact and can lead to losing your running mojo. Unfortunately for some women this phase can be prolonged and extend into the post menopause phase of life.Often women want to make the necessary health and lifestyle changes but don’t know in what order to make those changes.(06:30)The lifestyle challenges facing mid-life women and how it may impact them in resolving menopausal symptoms with nutrition and lifestyle changes.Many women are juggling a busy family life with children, elderly parents, their partner, their work, a social life as well as trying to be fit and healthy too … and if you are a runner you’re trying to fit in training and perhaps some races too.Women were telling us that they wanted to find a way of managing their menopause so they could be a healthy weight, combat low energy, choose the best food for their life stage and their running but do it all in a very easy way to fit in with their busy lives.(10:00)An overview of the
