#443; how to lose stubborn belly fat, control your hormones, have more energy + feel better; menopause, carbs and body changes

100% Real With Ruby; nutrition, strength, fat loss, muscle, macros - without the fluff

you don’t needanother hack. you need muscle, better sleep, and a plan you can actually do.this episode cuts through the “menopause belly” noise: we talk legs-firsttraining, carbs for sleep + performance, and why the setup is the rep (brace,hinge, then load). if you’ve been busy but not actually active, always dietingbut never changing shape—this is the truth you’ve been looking for.

what you’lllearn:

• why fat seemsto move to your waist in peri/menopause (and what to do about it)

• how carbs calmcortisol and improve sleep so you can actually train

• why four realsessions beat six half ones (recoverable volume wins)

• the lower-bodyfocus that changes your waist (rdls, hinge work, bracing)

• the two-phaseplan: patience isn’t passive. You need to stop the yoyo by spending more timebuilding the pillars

mini wins you canuse today:

• film one set ofrdls this week. cue: ribs down, brace, push hips back, keep the bar close.

• set a stepfloor (e.g., 7–9k). hit it before you earn any “extra” volume.
