The Midlife Health Check-Up

Wednesday, September 23

Time: 7 PM-8:30 PM

What Every Woman Should Track for Better Health After 40

Event Description

What should you actually be tracking to stay healthy in midlife?

Many of the biggest health changes in midlife—including heart disease, insulin resistance, osteoporosis, loss of muscle, and metabolic decline—develop quietly for years before symptoms appear. The good news? Many can be detected early with the right screenings and lab tests.

Join physician Dr. Maryam Salehpour or a practical guide to understanding the key health markers every woman should know during perimenopause and menopause.

Together, we'll explore four essential pillars of midlife health:

Blood Tests
Learn which routine labs to review with your primary care provider, what the numbers actually mean, and when additional testing may be appropriate based on your personal health goals and risk factors.

Body Composition
Weight alone doesn't tell the whole story. Discover why muscle mass, body fat percentage, and visceral fat are powerful indicators of long-term health, and compare today's most common body composition tools, including DEXA, SECA, and InBody.

Bone Health
Bone loss often begins years before osteoporosis is diagnosed. Learn when to consider a DEXA scan, what your results mean, and how strength training and nutrition can help protect your bones for years to come.

Fitness & Longevity
Understand why measures such as blood pressure, cardiorespiratory fitness (VO₂ max), and metabolic health are among the strongest predictors of healthy aging, and how metabolic testing can help personalize nutrition and exercise recommendations.

Dr. Salehpour will also walk through a real patient case study, demonstrating how body composition and metabolic testing helped guide personalized nutrition and lifestyle interventions to improve long-term health.

You'll also learn:

• How to advocate for yourself during medical appointments and ask informed questions.
• Which screenings and tests are typically covered by insurance—and which additional assessments may be worth considering.
• How to build a personalized roadmap for monitoring your health through every stage of midlife.

Whether your goal is preventing disease, improving energy, building strength, or simply understanding what's changing in your body, you'll leave with a personalized roadmap for your next doctor's visit—and greater confidence in taking charge of your health.

Bring your questions for an extended audience Q&A.

Every attendee will receive a Midlife Health Checklist to bring to their next doctor's appointment, making it easier to track the most important labs, screenings, and health metrics after 40.

*Class Registration, Cancellation & Refund Policy

To provide the best experience while keeping our programs sustainable, most classes require a minimum number of participants. Maxima Hive reserves the right to cancel or reschedule a class if the minimum enrollment is not met.

If We Cancel a Class

If Maxima Hive cancels a class, registered participants may choose one of the following:

• A full refund of the original method of payment.
• Store credit for the full registration amount, which may be used toward any purchase at Maxima Gift Center, Maxima Book Center, or any future Maxima Hive class or event.

We encourage participants to choose store credit whenever possible, as credit card processing fees are incurred when payments are processed and again when refunds are issued. Selecting store credit helps us reduce these costs and continue offering quality community programming.

Participant Cancellations

If you cancel your registration before the class or event, an 8% cancellation/restocking fee will be deducted from your refund. This fee helps offset the non-refundable credit card processing and administrative costs associated with your registration.

Instead of a refund, you may choose to receive 100% of your registration fee as store credit, with no cancellation fee deducted. Store credit may be used toward merchandise at Maxima Gift Center or Maxima Book Center, or toward any future Maxima Hive class or event.

Class Rescheduling

If a class is rescheduled, your registration will automatically be transferred to the new date. If you are unable to attend the new date, you may choose either a full refund or store credit.

Thank you for supporting local, small-business programming. Your understanding allows us to continue offering meaningful classes, workshops, and events for our community.
