Jennifer Cohen: 本期节目讨论了力量训练对女性，特别是更年期女性的重要性。Cohen 指出，女性在30岁左右达到肌肉量峰值，之后会自然下降。为了对抗这种衰退，女性需要进行力量训练以维持肌肉和骨骼健康，预防虚弱和骨质疏松，并降低心血管疾病的风险。她强调，单纯的有氧运动不足以应对年龄增长带来的肌肉流失，力量训练是必不可少的。她还分享了自己的经验，以及如何通过穿戴负重背心来增加日常活动的强度，并建议女性根据自身情况循序渐进地进行力量训练。 Mary Claire Haver: Haver 医生作为一位更年期专家，也强调了力量训练的重要性，并补充了更多医学证据。她指出，力量训练可以显著降低女性患心血管疾病的风险，其效果甚至超过男性。她还讨论了司美格鲁肽等药物在更年期体重管理中的作用，但强调这些药物应该在医生的密切监测下使用，并结合健康的生活方式，包括营养均衡和规律运动。Haver 医生还指出，在使用司美格鲁肽的同时进行激素替代疗法，减肥效果会更好，并且更容易保持体重，因为激素可以帮助维持肌肉质量。 Mary Claire Haver: Haver 医生详细阐述了司美格鲁肽在更年期体重管理中的应用，以及如何最大限度地发挥其作用。她指出，司美格鲁肽可以帮助患者减少食欲，从而减少食物摄入，但它只是一个工具，不能替代健康的生活方式。她强调，在使用司美格鲁肽期间，需要密切监测患者的肌肉质量和整体健康状况，以确保长期健康。她还指出，如果停用司美格鲁肽后没有改变生活习惯，体重很可能会反弹。因此，改变生活方式，包括饮食和运动习惯，对于长期保持体重至关重要。

Did you know that most women reach their peak muscle mass around age 30? After that, it's a downhill slide unless we take action. In this Fitness Friday episode, Dr. Mary Claire Haver, The #1 Menopause Doctor, and I discuss the critical importance of strength training for women, especially as they age.

We also dive into strength training to prevent frailty and osteoporosis and to help maintain independence well into your golden years.

Dr. Mary Claire Haver, board-certified OB/GYN, has helped thousands of women going through perimenopause, menopause, and beyond actualize their health and wellness goals by creating the online course and National Bestseller, The Galveston Diet).

What we discuss: 

  • Strength training for menopause
