Fat Deposits After Peri Menopause

All right, ladies, as you approach or you are in middle age and hormones are shifting and things are changing and you're wondering why all of a sudden we have fat deposits in weird areas that we didn't have it before, like lower belly, back of arms, on the middle of our back, weird places. You're like, what the heck is going on? And you're wanting to know what to do about it. First of all, it's normal. Our hormones have shifted, our metabolism has changed. That stuff is real. Doesn't mean we can't do anything about it. But here's what I want you to know. You can't spot, reduce. You can't just say, I want to selectively remove fat in my belly area. But as far as what do you. In the gym, what do you do with your body? How do you fix these little spots that we're hyper focusing on and pinching and grabbing and all the things, okay, you can't spot reduce, but here's what you can do. You can lose overall body fat, and you do that through changes in your nutrition, your diet, and through cardio workouts and through adding additional muscle. The more muscle you have, the more calories you burn at rest, the more overall fat you burn at rest. So that's, number one, you lose overall fat. Number two, you work on toning those areas. So developing muscles in those areas will drastically change the appearance of those areas. Areas. But we can't just say, I want to burn fat in a specific area. We're going to target and lose fat in that area. You can lose overall body fat and you can develop muscle in that area, which will drastically change the appearance. Now for the sagging skin situation. Skin does change. We lose elasticity. All that happens with age, and then gravity starts bringing it down. So we can't fix loose skin. But also, same thing applies. We can drastically change the appearance by developing overall muscle and losing overall fat.
