Menopause and thyroid issues, particularly hypothyroidism, can significantly impact a woman’s fitness and overall wellness. Both conditions involve hormonal changes that can affect metabolism, energy levels, muscle mass, and more, making it important to understand how they interplay with exercise and nutrition. For Women’s Wellness it’s important to focus on well-being throught the various stages of life and invloves taking proactive steps to maintain balance Women\u2019s wellness encompasses a holistic approach to health, focusing on the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of women throughout various stages of life. It involves taking proactive steps to maintain a balanced lifestyle, addressing everything from nutrition and fitness to hormonal health, mental health, and preventive care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Owner and Coach Jason Lobaugh has extensive experience training women going through menopause, and he understands how this life stage can affect fitness, nutrition, and overall well-being. He emphasizes the importance of personalized training programs that cater to the unique needs of women experiencing hormonal changes. Jason also highlights the value of a DEXA body scan, which provides detailed information about body composition, including muscle mass, bone density, and fat distribution. This scan is particularly beneficial for women in menopause, as it helps assess how hormonal changes impact the body and allows for targeted adjustments in diet and exercise. The DEXA scan can also be sent to a primary care doctor, enabling them to review the results and determine if any additional blood work or tests are necessary to ensure optimal health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Melissa Lobaugh, despite working out regularly and eating right, nothing felt like it was working. One key part of Melissa\u2019s health assessment was the DEXA body scan, a crucial tool in understanding body composition. This scan offers insights into bone density, fat distribution, and muscle mass, which are especially important during menopause. It also plays a role in optimizing nutrition by identifying areas that may require dietary adjustments. Workout Anytime’s trainers Laura and Nia use the scan to look at results to better understand their clients\u2019 health status and, if needed, recommend seeing a healthcare provider\u2014especially if the numbers don\u2019t align with the expected results based on diet and exercise. After noticing numbers for Visceral Fat was too high they recommended that she meets with a Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This scan and the trainers prompted Melissa to visit the Rise to Health Clinic, where she met Dr. Joshua David, who provided a second opinion and helped her better understand what was happening with her health. After a comprehensive evaluation, it was discovered that Melissa had hypothyroidism, a condition that had been overlooked earlier. Thanks to the DEXA scan, Melissa was properly guided into the right direction alongside the guidance of both Dr. David and the support from her husband Jason Lobaugh, ensuring she could thrive through menopause with a comprehensive approach to her health .<\/p>\n\n\n\n
