  • What’s Best Total Body or Split Routine in Menopause
    Jun 13 2025
    Which is the best workout routine for you right now – total body or split routine in menopause? This episode unpacks a recent study by Brad Schoenfeld comparing results from total body or split routine in menopause. The study did not actually address menopause. But if we know we are capable of making the same relative strength gains as males, then I’m considering this study as still relevant for us to consider in menopause. How the study was done: Untrained males, no resistance training in the previous 6 months.Exercise consists of 16 sets per muscle group per week per both groups Total Body Routine Trained each muscle group 4 per week (MTThF) 4 sets each: bench presscable triceps pushdownshoulder pressseated rowbiceps curlsquat leg curl. Split Routine Session A Mondays & Thursdays8 sets each: bench pressinclined bench presscable triceps pushdowntriceps kickbackshoulder press front dumbbell raise. Session B Tuesdays & Fridays8 sets each: seated rowlat pulldownbiceps curlhammer curlsquat Leg curl. Study Conclusion Training Volume for Strength Strength gains derived from frequency manipulation are driven by the increase in training volume. When constant, increased frequency does not seem to provide additional benefits. However, most studies suggest a resistance training frequency of 3 or fewer days per muscle group per week. A schedule of 4 days per week provides no additional strength gains relative to 2 days per week. Ideal or excessive training volume can be unique to each individual. Time The biggest challenge for most humans is Time. Disrupted or irregular schedules (MTTHF) can happen. Rest & Recovery Ideally 1-2 minutes rest between sets. Recommended 48 hours minimum to recover between use of same muscle groups. Muscle mass and hypertrophy could be built by either, but fat loss may benefit more from total body routine - based on greater muscle protein stimulus and EPOC. A Quick Overview on Total Body or Split Routine in Menopause Total Body Workouts Pros: More flexible with schedule. Easier to fit in and stay consistent with—especially helpful if life gets unpredictable.Higher metabolic boost. One study showed 8x more metabolic benefit from total body training than split routines.Efficient muscle protein synthesis. Stimulates multiple muscle groups at once, increasing post-exercise recovery benefits.Better for fat loss. However, recently Brad Schoenfeld showed that as long as volume is equal they can provide the same results. Cons: Challenging to manage volume. Hard to include enough exercises for each muscle group within one session.Fatigue if overdone. Doing total body workouts too frequently (e.g., 4x/week) without proper rest can backfire.Not always optimal for specialization. Doesn’t allow focused work on one muscle group (e.g., building glutes or shoulders). Split Routine: Pros: Allows for more focused volume per muscle group. Easier to do 2+ exercises per muscle group and more sets—important in post-menopause.Can be energizing per session. Training just the upper or lower body can feel lighter and more focused.Useful for variety and advanced training. Great for incorporating more complex splits and periodization. Cons: Harder to stay consistent. If you miss a day, it’s harder to make up and can throw off the weekly balance. Time-dependent. Requires more days per week and more planning—can be a challenge for busy midlife women.May lack full recovery. Without intentional spacing (e.g., Monday/Thursday vs. back-to-back days), results can suffer.Not ideal if energy is low. During menopause, fatigue can make it harder to consistently do split routines. Total Volume if equal can both produce results in Total Body or Split Routine in Menopause Other Episodes You Might Like: Previous Episode - Autoimmune Disease in Menopause and Changing Treatment Status QuoNext Episode - Women's Wellness Adventure Travel After 50More Like This - Cortisol and Exercise in Menopause Resources: Get your lean, clean Flipping 50 Protein Powders to maintain muscle and support metabolism.Book a Discovery Call with Debra to talk about your own menopause or becoming a coach.

  • Autoimmune Disease in Menopause and Changing Treatment Status Quo
    Jun 10 2025
    Why is autoimmune disease in menopause becoming more prevalent? And why are college-age patients a growing autoimmune demographic? In your 60s, when the world is thinking of retirement, would you ever consider being a founder of a new business instead of spending days on the golf course or traveling? Answers to the increase in autoimmune disease in menopause and more in this special episode I think you may find both alarming and fascinating; both a shot of reality and hope. My Guest: Dr. Bonnie Feldman, 69, Co-founder and Chief Patient Officer of Rheumission, is an entrepreneur, health practitioner, researcher, financial analyst, digital health advisor and autoimmune patient and advocate. Since 2010, Dr. Feldman integrates digital tech, virtual-first care, and lifestyle interventions with conventional care to improve outcomes for autoimmune patients. She spent the past decade raising awareness of the underserved and growing autoimmune market opportunity for private investment. Her experience as an autoimmune patient have fueled Bonnie’s passion for prevention, earlier diagnosis and improved care for all autoimmune patients. Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:04:50] Tell me about your own journey - why become a startup founder at an age (now 69) that most people are already in retirement?[00:09:16] What are autoimmune diseases?[00:13:18] What do people not understand about autoimmune disease?[00:18:21] Why do you say that autoimmune disease is a women's health crisis?[00:22:39] What is fundamentally wrong and needs to change in the way autoimmune patients are treated and diagnosed? What are doing to change this?[00:24:42] What is biologics? What are the negative side effects of biologics? [00:33:04] What is the legacy you hope to leave (for your 10 grandchildren)? Know if You May Have Autoimmune Disease in Menopause What is Autoimmune Disease?

I was looking forward to getting something out of these podcasts. They ended up being interviews without substance where you have to find the website of the person she is interviewing and fork over a bunch of money to get any of the actual usable information.
