The significance of our programs
There has been a lot of research done over the past 30 years that clearly shows the health benefits of specific exercise programs for peri- and post-menopausal women. At Mountains in Motion we believe in evidence-informed, collaborative health and fitness promotion.
Our personalized fitness programs are designed to:
- Strengthen your bones and muscles with tailored exercises. Research indicates that both strength training [1,2] and exercises where you support your own weight [3] are effective for enhancing muscle and skeletal health and improve bone mineral density in women during and after menopause [4] .
- Improve your balance and reduce the risk of falls with exercises that are designed for you. Studies have shown that exercises such as high-intensity strength training [1] and weight-bearing exercises [3] can lead to better dynamic balance and stability.
- Maintain an active lifestyle and stay stronger to continue enjoying your favourite activities. Personalized exercise programming, including strength training [1], can improve your ability to perform everyday tasks and enhance your overall physical [2] and cognitive [5] well-being.
There is no better time to start than now
You will see and feel the best results with exercise programmes that you stick with for a good length of time. Starting your exercise and fitness journey is the most important first step, but research suggests that interventions lasting from 6 months to 2 years produce the most significant improvements in bone strength and balance [6,7] .
