Summary

The goal of this clinical pilot trial is to learn about the feasibility of a high-intensity resistance training intervention in peri- and early menopausal females. The main question it aims to answer are:

-Is a 9-month resistance training intervention feasible (e.g., recruitment rates, protocol adherence, attrition)

Secondary aims include examining changes in bone health, muscle strength, and menopausal symptoms.

Participants will participate in a 9-month progressive, supervised, resistance training intervention. Researchers will compare secondary outcomes between the exercise group and a wait-list control group.
