190: Armour Weight & Hip Pain

Why Hip Pain Is So Common After 40 (And What Actually Helps) If you’ve developed hip pain in your 40s — gluteal tendinopathy, frozen shoulder, plantar fasciitis, or persistent tendon pain — you’re not imagining it. These issues are incredibly common in perimenopause , and they’re often misunderstood. In this episode, Lisa explains why tendon injuries increase after 40 and how hormonal changes, modern movement patterns, and chronic stress all influence tendon health. Because this isn’t just about ageing. It’s about how your body adapts to stress, movement, and hormonal shifts over time. In this episode we explore: • Why estrogen affects tendon repair and collagen production • How “glute amnesia” from modern life impacts hip stability • The connection between chronic stress and what Lisa calls Armour Weight™ • Why rest alone rarely fixes tendon issues • What actually helps: strength, stability, recovery, and nervous system regulation You’ll also learn why progressive glute strength training, single-leg stability, and recovery strategies are essential for protecting your hips and tendons in midlife. Because hip pain isn’t always “just ageing.” Often your body simply needs stronger glutes, better stability, and less physiological armour. Links Mentioned If hip pain has been limiting your movement or workouts, inside the Consistency Coven Lisa teaches a Hip Unlocking series designed to restore glute strength, stability, and mobility.
