is yoga a good exercise for menopause? aside from this, what other exercise can you suggest?


sheila

yoga is a good exercise during menopause. this will help to get rid of all problems such as irregular periods, excessive pain, irregular flow, change in moods, irritation etc.


aubrey

i agree sheila. yoga is a good exercise for menopause. but it has to be practiced on regular basis as well as in the correct form. i don't think this will work for me since i'm a very busy housewife. any other suggestions?


janine

Yoga is different from exercise because it doesn't involve speedy movements, but instead very slow and steady movements. This helps achieve relaxation which reduces stress & strain.

you can start with 20-minute sessions of aerobic exercise. the more time spent exercising, the more calories you'll burn. but if weight is not a problem, you can do this aerobic exercise for 30 mins daily before you do your household chores.

outdoor exercise such as walking, jogging, and swimming can be of big help too. i walk my dog everyday, this is the best exercise i've ever made.


lyka

i do cycling everyday, helps with my meno symptoms. best part is, it makes my legs firm. love it!


chelsea

yah cycling is a good exercise. i do swimming, helps with my meno and asthma.

i do cardiovascular exercise. it has several benefits for the menopausal woman. it helps you lose weight, and strengthens your heart at the same time.

i think slow exercise is better for menopause women. as we get older, our muscles and bones deteriorate. so if you do fast exercise you will tend to have serious injuries or broken bones.

the type of exercise that you take obviously depends on how much time you have to devote to exercise. important thing is, you may able to insert it in your daily routine.

what about aerobics or weightlifting? is it possible for a 47 years old menopause to do such activity?
