And I always like to try to steal man the claim that's sort of ridiculous. The basis for this claim is probably that women have a higher proportion of oxidative uh muscle fibers, so type one muscle fibers. Given the anabolic challenges of estrogen loss and testosterone reduction postmenopause, a woman's time is apparently better spent on resistance training to help her with her type 2 fibers and lean mass.
