## Resource

Hot flashes, night sweats, and disrupted sleep are some of the most frustrating symptoms women face during menopause—but what if one of the most powerful solutions isn’t found in a prescription. In this Science Snack episode, we break down a randomized controlled trial exploring the impact of resistance training on menopausal symptoms. The results are surprising! We walk through the study design, key findings, limitations, and—most importantly—what this means for your own menopause journey. --- 💪 Click here to learn more about The Fit Physician Coaching Study references: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31239119/ https://www.maturitas.org/article/S0378-5122(26)00033-2/abstract
