Hi Reader

Welcome back to 1UP,
my weekly newsletter where I share all things health and mindsets to help you get stronger, feel younger and live longer.


It's called the "bro" split for a reason

From a busy mom in her 40s to another: you want to lose belly fat, fit better in your clothes and have more energy and you know strength training is a non-negotiable.

But maybe you are wondering what is the best strength training schedule:
​
should you do whole body workout or a split routine?

There is a lot of great stuffs we can learn from the "gym bros".
After all, they are walking proof that they have figured out a thing or two.

But training like a bro is not gonna do it for a mama in her 40s who is juggling between work, household management, kids school and activities and meals for the family.

Even less so if she is also dealing with her shifting hormones or disrupted sleep because of perimenopause.

If you want a simple plan to get stronger and build up muscle, that fits in your busy schedule, and is appropriate to you if you are in perimenopause, this episode is for you.

I am going to tell you why a whole body workout wins anytime for busy moms in their 40s who are trying to lose belly fat, while juggling between work, kids activities and cooking healthy meals.

Listen to this week's episode to hear
- the pros and cons of split training vs whole body
- 5 science-backed reasons why full body is better for women who may be in perimenopause
- What types of exercises need to be in your program
