I intermenttly fast . I have learned for women at my age , protien before a workout is important , so I have protein powder in coffee before morning workouts. I also meal prep similar to what Stephanie recommends.

For my weight control I cut out all grains in my regular diet ( rice , pasta , oats, white potatoes, etc) my daily meals are a salad with nuts, chicken , egg, plain Greek yougurt with berries , a coffee/ protein shake & dinner is chicken or fish with salad & additional veggies.

Eating this way is the only way I can control post menopausal weight.

Good luck 🍀

Ok. I am trying to cup grip here. So the top hand higher & hips closer to the pole. Yes. The bottom feels very heavy

Thanks for the savings

Was happy to release the second arm & reach ! Still no back bend.

That is my knee hooked higher 😂 Stephanie Tallant what is a good mobility exercise to get my leg higher.

So nice have a wonderful teacher who cares

Ah yes! You really get the pole with the knees & push hips back while placing the top arm. Thanks 🙏

Thank you. Post your progress

John Flynn can you get more For arm grip on the bottom arm. Look like the wrist is twisted. I believe I place my bottom arm first & sink a bit into it before placing the top arm. I know you have the strength for the move. I will try it later & post a video.
