About this listen

 A comprehensive, physiology-based guide to peak performance for active women approaching or experiencing menopause—from the author of Roar, renowned exercise and nutrition scientist Dr. Stacy Sims

For active women, menopause hits hard. Overnight, your body doesn’t feel like the one you know and love anymore—you’re battling new symptoms, might be gaining weight, losing endurance and strength, and taking longer to bounce back from workouts that used to be easy. The things that have always kept you fit and healthy just seem to stop working the way they used to.

But menopause doesn’t have to be the end of you kicking ass at the gym, on the trail, in the saddle, or wherever you work out. Once you understand your physiology, you can work with it—not against it—to optimize your performance. That’s where Stacy Sims, PhD comes in. In Next Level, you’ll learn the underlying causes of menopause: the hormonal changes that are causing all the symptoms you’re feeling, and their impact on your wellness and performance. Then, what you really came for—what to do about it. Inside you’ll find science-backed advice about training, nutrition, sleep and recovery and supplements, as well as sample exercise routines, meal plans, macronutrient planning charts, and case studies from real women Stacy has coached through the transition. It’s the ultimate guide to navigating the Next Level.

*Includes a downloadable PDF of exercise routines, meal plans, planning charts, and other useful resources from the book. Aging & Longevity Physical Exercise Menopause Nutrition

Excellent book which works well as an audiobook. The content is first class, a Bible for women who train (especially but not exclusively marathoners and triathletes) in perimenopause. Knowledge bombs everywhere. Builds on ROAR but also recaps what you need from that book too.

Active women over 45 NEED this book

Very helpful

Helpful tips from someone I trust and admire. In a sea of misinformation, particularly because most studies are on men, and now in perimenopause I can trust the information in this book to help me at this time of my life. Thank you x

Information I can trust, great book!

I found this book informative and a gd listen, however, for an average Joe, some of the terminology and facts were alittle beyond me.
I found I needed pen and paper close by to make notes of micronutrients etc.
I would guess this would be alot easier with the physical book infront of you, instead of having to keep rewinding.
I also believe the book would be easier to understand by somebody already into training and clued up on what the body needs in regards to micronitrients.
But overall I've learnt quite alot about signs and symptoms of the menopause, how to naturally treat these with different types of exercise and natural adaptogens. Also that the key to it all is regular exercise, a varied, healthy diet and to 'lift heavy shit' (LHS)

Quite good but crammed with terminology
