Diet And Exercise For Women Over 45?
I know your metabolism changes as you get older and all the stuff about peri-menopause beginning, so what kind of dietary changes should women over 45 make (low-fat, higher protein, low carb, etc.) and what types of exercise should we focus on and how often?
find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter your stats and it will tell you how many calories a day you need to maintain your weight. take 300-400calories off that number and that’s how much you need to lose weight.
eat 5-6 small meals a day instead of 3 big ones.
5-8 servings of fruit and vegetables a day.
8 glasses of water a day.
4-6 times a week cardio work out for 30-50min plus light weight training.
no junk food, no sodas, no white flour (white bread, pasta, cookies, cakes etc)
yoga is great for all age groups. my mom is 52, she started with hot yoga and now she’s doing tae bo with me. she’s has a great bod for at 52 year old. oh and she swims right after tae bo.
I never worry about such things because I take 2 tbls. of heinz apple cider vinegar in a glass of water 2-3 x day or before a meal. Vinegar has 93 vitamins and minerals. For exercise I lift weights and do yoga. Dancing is also fun and works for stamina.Exercise is good at leat 3-4 days a week. I am 50 and have the face and figure of a woman half my age. Vinegar will make hair and nails long and strong. No breakage, dandruff, osteoporosis or tooth loss. Vinegar has cured my depression, anxiety, and adult acne. I also drink at least 6-8 glasses of water to hydrate my skin from the inside.
Simple: eat healthy, exercise at least 3 times a week.
gentle aerobics and aqua exercises=your dietitian will be the best person to tell you what diet okay
I”m a 43 year old athletic woman. I eat low glycemic and exercise the same way I did when I was younger. I noticed a metabolic change in that I can keep weight on easier if I’m not careful.
Once I stop, I know its much harder to get back on the horse, so to speak. So, I have to keep on going.
