[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does lifting versus cardio make a difference? Thanks.[/quote] You will increase the amount of calories you need daily, more than with cardio. You will increase your bone density, with is a significant concern as you age. Muscle mass is important, too! If you want to build muscle, you will need to eat enough food and protein. You’ll see some immediate gains as a beginner (nothing bulky, just, you’ll be like, oh, my bicep is there), but beyond that you’ll need to eat enough protein (and calories) and lift for hypertrophy (lift until failure, meaning, you can’t complete your second or third set because it’s too much weight). Others can say it better than me. https://theconversation.com/why-weightlifting-is-beneficial-before-and-after-the-menopause-204846#:~:text=The%20study%20found%20that%20perimenopausal,less%20stomach%20fat%20on%20average. https://www.feistymenopause.com/blog/liftheavyweights [/quote]
