Menopause, Perimenopause, and Active Women Ep 122

What if your declining energy, brain fog, and poor sleep aren’t training mistakes—but hormonal shifts? Coach Chris Newport sits down with Dr. Abby DeVries, a family physician specializing in midlife women’s health, to unpack perimenopause, menopause, and hormone therapy for active women.

We discuss:

• Early signs of perimenopause
• Progesterone, estrogen, and testosterone explained
• Why strength training is critical for bone health
• Hormone therapy myths and safety
• Longevity strategies for women who want to keep performing

This episode is a must‑listen for women who want to age strong, confident, and informed.
