Joe Wicks’ Menopause Workouts Spark Controversy

Fitness guru Joe Wicks has come under fire for his new ‘menopause workouts’, which some critics argue perpetuate the stereotype that menopausal women are weak and incapable. Wicks, who gained fame during the Covid lockdown with his home workouts, has defended the new content, saying that it is designed to be low-impact and accessible for women who may be experiencing fatigue and joint pain. However, many women have expressed concern that the workouts reinforce the idea that menopause is a debilitating condition. Fitness experts say that while menopausal women may need to adjust their workouts, it is not necessary to dial down on intensity. They emphasize the importance of strength training to prevent muscle loss and osteoporosis. However, they also acknowledge that barriers to movement exist for menopausal women, and that Wicks’ workouts may provide support for those who are struggling to stay active.
