Exercise during menopause with a Community that gets it

Menopause can feel like a lot of change at once. From hot flushes and night sweats to tiredness, changes in mood, disrupted sleep and changes to your body, it can be difficult to know what will help you feel like yourself again.

One thing that can make a real difference is staying active during menopause.

But exercise doesn’t have to mean pushing yourself to the limit. It can be about finding movement that feels good, fits into your life and gives you a reason to keep going.

That’s exactly what the Race At Your Pace Menopause Community is here for.

Exercise during menopause: move in a way that works for you

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to exercise during menopause.

You might enjoy walking, running, swimming, cycling, yoga, Pilates or strength training. You might prefer short sessions throughout the week rather than one long workout.

The important thing is finding something you enjoy and can keep doing.

Regular physical activity can support your mental and physical health during menopause, while weight-bearing and resistance exercises can help support bone health and maintain muscle strength.

And movement can be good for your mind too.

Getting outside, taking time for yourself and achieving a movement goal can provide a welcome boost when you’re dealing with tiredness, stress or changes in mood.

You don’t have to do it perfectly. You just have to keep moving.

A menopause community where you can talk openly

One of the hardest parts of menopause can be feeling like you’re the only one experiencing certain symptoms or changes.

That’s why the Race At Your Pace community is about more than simply tracking exercise.

Our social feed gives you somewhere to connect with other women taking part in the challenge.

You can share your progress, talk about your experiences and encourage other women who may be going through something similar.

Had a difficult week? Tell the community.

Reached a movement milestone? Celebrate it.

Struggling to find motivation? There will be other women there to encourage you.

Sometimes, having someone say “me too” can make all the difference.

Motivation beyond the finish line

Staying motivated isn’t always easy, especially when you’re dealing with menopause symptoms.

That’s why we’ve built plenty of ways to keep things interesting.

Take part in community competitions, celebrate your achievements and get involved with the wider Race At Your Pace community.

And every time you move, you can work towards something extra.

Turn your movement into rewards

With Race At Your Pace, you can earn coins as you move.

Your coins can be exchanged for high street and online vouchers, giving you another little incentive to keep your movement going.

Whether you’ve walked for ten minutes or completed a longer workout, your activity can help you build towards rewards.

Move more. Earn more. Treat yourself.

Menopause doesn’t mean putting yourself last

Life can be busy, and it’s easy to put your own health and wellbeing at the bottom of the list.

But menopause can be a great time to start prioritising yourself again.

You don’t need to become a fitness expert.

You don’t need to run marathons.

You don’t even need to love exercise.

Start with something manageable. Take a walk. Try some strength exercises. Get outside. Find a friend to move with.

Then keep going.

Because exercise for women during menopause isn’t about changing who you are — it’s about supporting the woman you are now.
