No Age Limit: Training Through Perimenopause & Menopause
What happens to our bodies during perimenopause and menopause - and how can we continue to train, stay strong and pursue the goals that matter to us?
Join Margaret Chew and her trainer, Lyn Kong, for an honest and inspiring conversation about training through perimenopause and menopause, exploring the physical changes, challenges and mindset shifts that can come with this stage of life.
Margaret will share her personal experience of continuing to train with determination and purpose, while Lyn brings her perspective as a trainer on how exercise and training can be adapted to support the body through this transition. Together, they will explore how women can better understand their changing bodies, build strength, adjust their training and continue to pursue meaningful goals.
This is not about chasing youth or turning back the clock. It is about understanding your body, working with it, and discovering new ways to stay strong, active and capable.
Whether you are approaching perimenopause, navigating menopause, already active, thinking about returning to exercise, or simply curious about how training can evolve through different stages of life, this conversation offers an encouraging space to learn, ask questions and rethink what is possible.
Because our bodies may change, but our capacity to move, grow and challenge ourselves can continue to evolve.

At the age of 57, Margaret Chew challenged herself to climb mount Everest. Her reasons - the love of mountaineering and a journey of overcoming grief.
Just 3 months before her climb, her youngest son Joseph was a victim of a freak explosion in HELP University.
Margaret talks about how she started hiking 8 years ago to tackling the highest mountain in the world and proving that Every Woman has Her Everest and what she has learned to overcome it.

The mountain, then, remains a physical objective. But it is no longer the only one. This ascent is taking place through sorrow as much as through altitude. It is defined less by conquest than by endurance.
