Dr. Ferrando also shares insights from forthcoming research comparing animal-based and plant-based proteins, and explains why muscle is the body's primary survival tissue during stress and aging. This conversation delivers clear, evidence-based strategies for improving body composition, fat loss, and long-term health in women. Topics include: Why menopause changes protein utilization and muscle retention Perimenopause as a muscle-critical intervention window Protein intake vs. protein optimization Essential amino acids (EAAs): when supplementation is useful Muscle loss, fat gain, and metabolic slowdown in midlife Why muscle preservation matters more than scale weight The role of circulation, blood flow, and resistance training Fat loss without muscle loss: what the science shows GLP-1 weight loss drugs and concerns around lean mass loss Emerging research on beef-based vs. plant-based proteins for women Dr. Arny Ferrando is a world-leading researcher in human protein metabolism, muscle physiology, and aging. His work has helped define how amino acids, protein intake, and exercise influence muscle preservation, recovery, and metabolic health across the lifespan.

In this episode, I'm joined by Kelsey Johnson (@kelseyjfit) for a real, honest conversation about what it actually takes to recompose your body not chase quick fixes. We break down why taking your body through intentional phases (building, maintaining, and fat loss) is key for long-term results, and why trying to do everything at once often backfires.We also dive into the biggest things that sabotage women's muscle growth, including chronic dieting, under-fueling, fear of eating more, overdoing cardio, and unrealistic timelines shaped by social media. Kelsey shares her insights on what consistency really looks like, how to build muscle without losing your mind, and why patience is a non-negotiable if you want sustainable progress.If you've ever felt stuck, frustrated, or confused about why your body isn't changing despite “doing everything right,” this episode will give you clarity and a much healthier perspective on progress.Connect with Kelsey:Instagram: @kelseyjfitWork with me:Coaching inquiries & programs: www.nicoleferrierfitness.comInstagram: @NicoleFerrierFitnessIf this episode resonates, be sure to subscribe, share, and leave a review it helps the podcast reach more women who need this message

This episode originally dropped when the podcast was just getting started… and even years later, the message still hits hard.Today we're revisiting “Why ‘Eat Less, Move More' Is Terrible Advice.”Because while that phrase sounds simple — and even logical on the surface — it's one of the most misleading pieces of advice ever given to people trying to lose fat, improve their health, and actually stick to change.In this episode, I break down why fat loss isn't just a math problem… why hunger always wins when hormones are ignored… and why understanding insulin, metabolism, and behavior matters far more than just white-knuckling willpower.If you're new to the show, what we talk about today may really surprise you —so I ask you to come in open-minded… and open to trying different approaches if the thing you're doing right now isn't working.And if you've been with me since the early days — you'll want to listen to this one again. You'll probably hear it with new ears, deeper understanding, and more context than you had the first time around.Because the truth is… We've been told to try harder — when we really needed better systems and better information.Let's take it back.Resources: Brain.fm App(First month Free, then 20% off subscription)Discount Code: coachdamiensdLinks:IG:@coachdamien_sd@damienrayevans@livinthedream_podcast YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCS6VuPgtVsdBpDj5oN3YQTgFB:https://www.facebook.com/coachdamienSD/

two quick wins before you even press play:• you'll stop blaming genetics, your body or something thats wrong with YOU... & start fixing the signal you're sending it • you'll get a clean “do this / not that” framework for cardio, carbs, and training so you can stop spirallingif you're walking into 2026 with the same goal you've had for years -“i just want to look lean and toned” -but you're still not changing… this episode is for you.because what i keep seeing is women repeating the same patterns.their training is a pattern.their dieting is a pattern.their fear of carbs is a pattern.their “i'll start again monday” is a pattern.and then they wonder why their body doesn't change.in this conversation with dean guedo, we make one thing painfully clear:your body looks like what you do.so if your week looks like a cardio person's week, you'll get a cardio person's adaptation. and if lifting is always the thing you “fit in when you can”… you'll keep feeling like you're working hard with nothing to show for it.we talk about:• why running builds endurance outputs, not a “glute-built” physique• why “hard” is not the same as “effective” (and why resting is part of the stimulus)• why the real 2026 glow-up is skill + intent + fuel + time — not another phase• why maintenance feels emotionally harder than dieting (even when it's physiologically easier)two mini wins to take into this week:• choose one goal for the next 12–16 weeks and build your week around it (stop trying to do everything)• fuel the sessions you want results from: carbs + protein, then let cardio support your life — not replace your liftingif you want to come on for a chat about your own journey or struggles, dm me “pod chat.” and if this episode hit, comment with the pattern you're ready to break.find me @transformxruby on instagramnoted in the episode:• follow dean: @walk.more.king• if you got value, share/tag me and leave a 5-star rating (i just hit 80 — let's get to 100)apply for a free consult:https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1faipqlsfqaxmdfbpypyvui3bgsclndxtj4bwjrvpkbbhuk5cp7sqsiw/viewform?usp=sf_linkdirect link to dm me on ig:https://ig.me/m/transformxruby

In this eye-opening episode of The Health and Wellness Coach Journal Podcast, Dr. Jessica Singh speaks with Dr. William Davis, a cardiologist and New York Times bestselling author of Wheat Belly, Wheat Belly Cookbook, Wheat Belly 30-Minutes (or Less!) Cookbook, and Wheat Belly Total Health, as well as Wheat Belly 10-Day Grain Detox, Undoctored, and Super Gut. His newest book, Super Body: A 3-Week Program to Harness the New Science of Body Composition and Restore Your Youthful Contours, explores emerging science on body composition, the microbiome, and long-term metabolic health. Dr. Davis shares how his work as a cardiologist—and a personal turning point—led him to reexamine conventional approaches to heart disease risk. He discusses why wheat and sugar contribute to metabolic changes that negatively affect whole-body health. The discussion moves beyond diet to explore why removing harmful foods may only be the beginning. Dr. Davis explains how antibiotics, numerous medications, modern food, environmental exposures, chronic stress, and disrupted sleep deplete protective microbes, impacting various aspects of health. This episode also explores microbiome implications for women's and maternal health, infant development, SIBO, and the relationship between stress, sleep, circadian rhythm, and the gut–brain axis. Dr. Davis offers practical guidance for coaches and healthcare providers seeking credible, evidence-informed microbiome resources. Together, Dr. Singh and Dr. Davis discuss the education gap in medicine—particularly around nutrition and the microbiome—and why clinicians often need to expand beyond traditional training to support prevention and long-term healing. This conversation is a call to rethink prevention and recognize that rebuilding the microbiome is a powerful way to reclaim agency and improve health.

Happy New Year! To kick off 2026, Elizabeth welcomes registered dietitian and integrative nutrition expert Ashley Koff, RD, founder of The Better Nutrition Program and author of the forthcoming Your Best Shot: The Personalized System for Optimal Weight Health - GLP-1 Shot or Not. With over 25 years in the field, Ashley offers a grounded, science-backed perspective on the “weight health era,” especially the growing conversation around GLP-1 medications and metabolic hormones.In this episode, Ashley demystifies the hype around weight loss drugs and reveals why the real focus should be on your body's own “switch”, the weight health hormones that regulate hunger, satisfaction, and metabolism. She breaks down the importance of looking beyond the number on the scale, explaining why bone, muscle, and visceral fat composition matter so much more. Episodes Here Ashley: Your Best Shot: The Personalized System for Optimal Weight Health―GLP-1 Shot or Not  | The Better Nutrition Program Mentioned: Pure Encapsulation Magnesium Gummies BIOptimizers Magnesium BreakthroughOrtho Molecular Reacted Magnesium Say Hi To Elizabeth and Purely Elizabeth: Website | Instagram

To kick off the new year, I wanted to dive deep into setting up a personalized diet to achieve health, performance, and body composition goals. I share my evolving approach to nutrition, emphasizing that there's no one-size-fits-all diet. Focusing on the importance of discipline, commitment, and consistency, I discuss various dietary methods and macronutrient setups.

In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I catch up with my good friend Jason Brown to dig into the intersection of strength training and aerobic development. We talk through how to implement aerobic conditioning in the real world, what zone two training actually is (and isn't), and the pros and cons of different training methodologies. Jason shares his thoughts on concurrent training, functional movement, and how to improve performance without sacrificing long-term health. We also get into the realities of online coaching and how to structure training programs that support sustainable progress over time. If you're looking to improve body composition, build muscle, and boost performance within a flexible, evidence-based framework, this episode will give you plenty to work with.Sponsors:Rogue: https://miket.me/rogueBeyond Power Voltra 1: https://www.beyond-power.com/michael13Meathead Cardio Course Level 1: Aerobic System https://miket.me/cardioFitness Insider Newsletter: https://miketnelson.com/Episode Chapters:04:26 Jason Brown Introduction and Background04:58 Transition to Online Training07:16 Challenges and Adaptations in Online Coaching15:01 Assessment and Customization in Training19:46 Importance of Aerobic Conditioning21:38 Heart Rate Monitoring and Technology32:36 Debunking Myths and Misconceptions40:13 Personal Training Evolution40:29 Aerobic Training Benefits40:56 Training Philosophy and Methods41:54 Zone Two Training Debate43:23 Stress and Training Adaptations44:24 Creative Conditioning Approaches57:02 Concurrent Training Insights01:04:26 Programming and Practical Experience01:14:36 Final Thoughts and RecommendationsEpisodes You Might Enjoy:Episode 326: Row Hard, Breathe Easy: Boosting Aerobic Capacity with Dr. Kenneth JayYouTube: https://youtu.be/hpvKokMBRv4?si=sL-dFZ2reY_W5RWVEpisode 335: Grip, Guts & Gas Tanks: Aerobic Training for Meatheads with Levi EarlYouTube: https://youtu.be/S13JxU57-sk?si=phRGaQSaN0SnXnsOConnect with Jason:Website: https://www.jasonbrowncoaching.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@jasonbrowncoachingInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasonbrowncoachingGet In Touch with Dr Mike:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drmiketnelson/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCn1aTbQqHglfNrENPm0GTpgEmail: https://miketnelson.com/contact-us/

If holiday events leave you feeling anxious, reactive, or like you've already blown it before the night even starts, this episode is your reset. In episode 5 of our Holiday Eating Series, I'm breaking down exactly how to approach parties and dinners so you can enjoy the food and the moment without spiraling, because it's not the holiday meals that throw most women off, it's the strategy they walk in with.I walk you through what actually matters before, during, and after an event so you can stay grounded, avoid the guilt hangover, and keep your momentum intact. We'll talk about the subtle ways women accidentally sabotage themselves, how to build a plate that supports balance instead of relying on willpower, and what to do after a big night so guilt doesn't turn into an all or nothing reset.By the end, you'll know how to leave an event feeling satisfied and in control instead of stuffed, frustrated, or planning to start over tomorrow. Hit play and let's change how this season feels.And, if this resonated and you're ready to enjoy the holidays without sacrificing your body goals, download your FREE Holiday Eating Roadmap here: https://mindin-my-wellness.captivate.fm/roadmap2:40 – Why holiday overeating is driven by mindset, not just food choices3:14 – The simple three-step plan: what to do before, during, and after events3:41 – Why “saving calories” by skipping meals leads to overeating6:36 – How to build your plate for balance (and enjoying the fun foods, too)8:44 – The 80% full rule for mindful eating at holiday gatherings10:49 – How to reset the next day—no restriction or guilt required Other Episodes You'll Love:Episode 139: Why Starting Over in January Keeps You Stuck (Do THIS simple reset to stay consistent all season!) | HOLIDAY EATING SERIESEpisode 140: How to Create a Flexible Holiday Eating Routine So You Can Enjoy the Season Without Stressing About Weight Gain | HOLIDAY EATING SERIESEpisode 141: How to Quickly Stop the I'll Start Over on January 1st Mentality (Try THIS Before You Spiral!) | HOLIDAY EATING SERIESEpisode 142: The Two Ingredients That Make Holiday Eating So Much Easier | HOLIDAY EATING SERIES

Send us a textWhen effort stops producing results, it's often not a motivation problem. It's a physiology problem, especially as hormones begin to shift.In this conversation, Dr. Kevin White sits down with Katie Hardy, Colorado-based board-certified holistic nutritionist and strength and conditioning specialist, to explore why fitness, diet, and exercise stop working the same way over time, particularly for women navigating perimenopause. Drawing from her work with high-performing athletes and active adults, Katie explains how hormonal changes, chronic stress, and under-recovery impact energy, body composition, mood, and long-term health, and why pushing harder often backfires during this stage of life.“If things that used to work aren't working anymore, that's not failure. It's feedback.” – Katie HardyYou'll hear: • How perimenopause changes the body's response to training, cardio, and calorie restriction • Why hormones, stress, and recovery matter more than doing more exercise • Common nutrition mistakes women make as hormones shift • Why savory, protein-forward meals better support energy and body composition • How smarter training and intentional recovery support health and longevity during midlifeFind Katie Hardy on Instagram at @mypeak365 and learn more about her work at MyPeak365.com.

Today, I am delighted to welcome Dr. William Davis, a cardiologist and New York Times bestselling author of the Wheat Belly series. He is also the author of Undoctored, Super Gut, and his latest book, Super Body. In our conversation, we dive into the toxic diet industry and how it profits from repeatedly delivering wrong messages. We explore physiological changes in body composition that contribute to poor metabolic health and inflammation, the dangers of ectopic fat, and the influence of our environment. Dr. Davis explains the weight loss Ponzi scheme and how muscle loss drives changes in body composition. We also unpack the gut-muscle axis, the role of the microbiome in muscle building, SIBO and treatment options, and examine the broader effects of oxytocin on body composition, touching on the benefits of replacing lost biological compounds, like collagen and hyaluronic acid, the impact of Max, the microbiota, and accessible carbs, along with practical takeaways to support healthier living and better body composition. This conversation with Dr. Will Davis is incredibly insightful, and I look forward to having him back to discuss the female and vaginal microbiomes.
