I’M OFTEN ESPOUSING strength training, especially for women in midlife as it’s a great way to stave off multiple menopausal conditions, but there are other exercise and movement modalities that are also beneficial. And while we’ve for years been hearing about HIIT, or high intensity interval training, there are lots of benefits to be had from low intensity steady state cardio (LISS), which helps improve blood flow, reduce stress, lower risk of heart disease and improve brain function.
It is also easier to do and gentler onfor example 220 minus 55 is 165, which would be your average maximum heart rate).
