Use Light And Meal Timing For Rhythm
- Use morning sunlight and evening red/orange light to entrain circadian rhythm and improve sleep.
- Stop eating 3–4 hours before bed and optimize a cool, dark bedroom environment.
Prioritize Strength As Core Training
- Make strength/resistance training the nonnegotiable core of exercise to build muscle and metabolic resilience.
- Add cycle-aware cardio or recovery work but keep consistent resistance training year-round.
Load Bones Early And Often
- Prioritize bone-loading exercises now and monitor bone density with DEXA scanning periodically.
- Include jumps and compound lifts to protect against rapid bone loss in perimenopause and beyond.
