This stage in women’s life is usually taboo, but there is a way to combat or mitigate their symptoms.
It is normal for menopause to be perceived as a taboo subject, it is a process in which, in addition, the word old age seems to be implicit. Anyway, times change. At present there is much less prejudices to discuss these issues and also the longevity and the threshold of old age are running more and more.
Previously people between 40 or 50 years old were already entering the elderly, but today until after 50 people look much younger. In this sense, there are methods to combat the symptoms of menopause through physical activity. Either with cardiovascular or resistance or strength exercises.
Exercise at 50
The exercise routine that improves your life during menopause
In this routine, two types of activity, cardiovascular work and force exercises must be taken into account. The ideal would be to combine 3 days of cardio and 2 force exercises. The former help avoid weight gain during this period and, above all, the accumulation of fat in the abdominal zone. In addition, the heart is protected, since fat is related to greater risk of cardiovascular diseases.
On the other hand, with strength training, caloric spending is increased and osteoporosis can be prevented. This is key to performing simple tasks such as climbing stairs or getting from a chair at age 80.
The doctor of physical activity and sports sciences, Alberto García points out that it is very important to maintain a good exercise routine between 40 and 50 years. However, from the 50 we must be more constant, since the exercise becomes a determining factor to guarantee your future.
