Amy Williams Instagram – Instead of chasing the latest diet or exercise trend, women in their 40s should focus on these essentials:
1️⃣ Walk more: Increase your daily steps to counteract any sedentary lifestyle. Aim for 30-60 minutes of walking each day to boost your health and maintain a healthy weight.
2️⃣ Lift weights: Prevent muscle loss with resistance training 2-3 times a week. This supports metabolism and ensures long-term health and mobility.
3️⃣ Increase your protein: For muscle gain consume between 1.2-2.2 grams of protein per kg of bodyweight per day. This is a very rough amount to help muscles recover and build. Protein also promotes better hair, skin, and nails.
4️⃣ Eat fiber-rich foods: Eating fiber daily from sources like oats, potatoes, berries, and leafy greens to improve gut health and control cravings.
5️⃣ Prioritise sleep: Ensure 7-8 hours of quality sleep by establishing a nighttime routine: avoid screens before bed, avoid heavy meals, and create a cool, dark environment.
