Cold plunges. Saunas. Vibration plates. Electrolytes. Mobility routines. Everyone has an opinion—but what actually moves the needle? In this episode of The Fitness League, Josh, Alessandra, and Joelle play a round of Smash or Pass with some of the most talked-about health and fitness trends right now. We break down what's worth your time, what's overhyped, and what depends entirely on you. Along the way, we cover the fundamentals that never go out of style—why protein matters for recovery and strength, why fiber is still wildly under-consumed, and when electrolytes actually make sense. We also talk through cold exposure, sauna use, Zone 2 cardio, mobility work, and macro tracking, with real-world context instead of blanket advice. This episode is about cutting through the noise, understanding your individual needs, and building a health approach that's effective, sustainable, and actually enjoyable. If you've ever wondered whether the latest trend is a game-changer or just good marketing—this one's for you.

Cold plunges are everywhere, and the way people talk about them, you'd think they're a miracle cure for your brain, body, and soul. But in an age of algorithm-fueled evangelism, when a ritual becomes this ubiquitous and loud, we have to ask: how much of the buzz is backed by science… and how much is just marketing? In this episode, we explore the neuroscience of cold exposure: what's real, what's overstated, and why this "discomfort" has become a billion-dollar industry. We discuss: Why cold plunges went viral, and how wellness movements often devolve into identity-driven cultures The difference between cold exposure itself and the monetized "cold plunge movement" What constitutes a "cult" (and how pseudoscience forms around partial truths) The real physiological cold shock response Why the mental "high" after a plunge doesn't automatically equal long-term brain benefit The cardiovascular risks that rarely get discussed, especially for people with underlying heart disease What the research suggests about soreness, pain reduction, and muscle growth (including why cold immersion can blunt hypertrophy) The real story behind brown fat Who should avoid cold plunges altogether (asthma, arrhythmias, coronary disease, vascular conditions) Joining us for this conversation is investigative journalist and bestselling author Scott Carney (What Doesn't Kill Us, The Wedge), who has spent years inside the cold exposure world, first as a skeptic, then as a believer, and eventually as a critic of the culture that formed around it. His work reveals what happens when discomfort becomes identity, and when unfounded "social media science" outruns real science.

Cold plunges following strength training are discouraged since they substantially attenuate long-term gains in muscle mass.

Celebrating its 20th anniversary this year, Food for Thought podcast remains listener-supported. To support this work and receive perks and exclusive engagement, please consider becoming paid subscriber (but don't go anywhere if you're a free subscriber)!Welcome to 2026—and to the 20th anniversary year of Food for Thought! I'm kicking off the new year with an episode about stretching our comfort zones through small, intentional practices that help us live with more clarity, resilience, and purpose.In this episode, I explore:* Why the idea of “doing hard things” isn't new at all—and how it's rooted in Stoic philosophy* What thinkers like Seneca, Epictetus, and Marcus Aurelius actually meant by hardship (hint: it wasn't suffering for suffering's sake)* How we can manifest this ancient practice in our modern lives* Why trends like cold plunges miss the point if we focus only on promised (and alleged) health benefits* How Dry January fits perfectly into this framework—not as a detox or moral stance, but as an experiment in awareness, habit, and choiceI also reflect on looking back at 2025—what I learned, what I practiced, what I shared with you—and why I still believe that setting intentions (whether for 24 hours or 365 days) is a powerful way to orient our lives.If you're feeling curious about:* Doing something different this year* Letting go of what's familiar just long enough to learn from it* Or giving yourself a gentle nudge instead of a total overhaul…this episode is for you.

There have been five placebo-controlled studies on cold water immersion. What did they find?

In Episode 205, I had some health hacks I was excited about and now it's time to review them... This year brought us so much in terms of family, a new home, new coaches, and a baby girl (surprise!) on the way! I wanted to take this episode to review some of the hacks I had talked about at the beginning of the year, see what stuck, what I actually enjoyed and didn't, and what's going to make the cut in 2026. Since this is my first pregnancy, some things like cold plunging will have to go on the back burner but I'm excited to share what I'm excited about and what I will be taking with me into 2026.  Some topics like private healthcare and peptides are topics I want to cover more extensively in later episodes but wanted to mention them in today's episode because I think they are two big topics.  DM me and let me know if there's any health hacks that you are ditching or including in your 2026 and Happy New Year from all of us at Vital Spark! Time Stamps: (1:11) Surrounded By Boxes (2:34) Gender Reveal (4:57) What I'm Bringing Into 2026 (5:52) What I Covered Last Year (19:02) Leaving Yoga Classes in 2025 (21:46) Caffeine Limits (24:27) Cold Plunges (26:42) Sober Periods (29:42) Health Optimization (31:37) Let Them Mentality (34:56) Private Healthcare (37:16) Peptides---------------------Find Out More Information on Vital Spark Coaching---------------------Follow @vanessagfitness on Instagram for daily fitness tips & motivation. ---------------------Download Our FREE Metabolism-Boosting Workout Program---------------------Join the Women's Metabolism Secrets Facebook Community for 25+ videos teaching you how to start losing fat without hating your life!---------------------Click here to send me a message on Facebook and we'll see how I can help or what best free resources I can share!---------------------Interested in 1-on-1 Coaching with my team of Metabolism & Hormone Experts?

I am with Dr Rob Williams for one of the most expansive conversations I have had on breath, resilience and what it means to be human in a world that moves faster than we can process. Rob shared his journey from near-death experiences to long distance running to teaching breath mastery and the cold as a teacher, and each moment revealed something powerful about how we reconnect to our bodies. He walked me through the ways breath shapes our nervous system, the role of cold exposure in building resilience and why slowing down is the doorway back to ourselves. What struck me most was how he frames breathing as both a biological superpower and a spiritual practice that brings us into harmony with life. This episode left me inspired to breathe with more intention, move with more awareness and stay curious about the flow that is always available when we tune in.Inside this podcast:- How breath connects the body and nervous system- Why the cold can build resilience and mental clarity- How voluntary stress strengthens mind and spirit- The science behind nasal breathing and heart coherence- How flow states emerge from conscious presenceConnect with Dr. Rob:Instagram → /drrobwilliamsWebsite → https://nordicflow.io & https://thenordicwave.com/Email → contact@doctorrobwilliams.comConnect with Steve:Instagram → /thestevehodgsonLinkedIn  → /stevehodgsonEpisode Highlights00:00 - Introducing Dr Rob Williams01:46 - How breath shapes human experience07:41 - Breath as a human superpower10:46 - The deeper meaning of inspiration14:23 - Heart coherence and emotional flow19:53 - The biology of stress and fear23:09 - Voluntary stress and resilience25:12 - Cold plunging as a resilience tool33:39 - Trauma held in the body and cold release52:23 - Foundational breath practices for daily lifeABOUT THE PODCAST SHOWThe Noise of Life is a podcast that shares real stories, raw truths, and remarkable growth.

With returning guest Dr. Eleanor Stein, we break down a framework you can start today: cold exposure, heat exposure, movement you can sustain, light, and metabolic switching. Get the dose right, protect recovery, and mitochondria ramp, brain pathways recalibrate, and resilience climbs. Too much stress burns you out. No stress leaves you unprepared. Capacity lives in the cycle. If you're done with extremes and gimmicks, this conversation gives you a practical starting point. Want to know more about Hormesis?

In this episode, Craig and I dive into our monthly listener Q&A — covering a mix of mindset, fitness, and lifestyle topics that hit close to home for a lot of people. We covered everything from testosterone therapy and self-limiting beliefs to training styles, getting back in shape after falling off, and whether cold plunges are actually worth the hype. Some of the questions we tackled include: Testosterone only went up 10 points after 9 months on TRT — does that seem off? What are our own personal self-limiting beliefs and how have we learned to work through them? Which is more optimal: circuit-style training or traditional hypertrophy work? If you were in great shape years ago but have since fallen off, what's the very first step to take to get back on track? Our honest take on cold plunging — effective or overrated? This episode is a blend of science, experience, and real talk — no fluff. Whether you're curious about optimizing your health or just looking for a little direction, this one's packed with insight.

This week, I'm joined by Dr. Felice Chan, a Chinese medicine doctor who bridges Eastern and Western approaches to healing after years studying allopathic medicine including shadowing an oncology neurosurgeon and working at Boston Children's Hospital. We dive into the fascinating contrasts between healthcare in Hong Kong and the U.S., the 5,000-year misunderstanding around acupuncture, and how our gut health connects to anxiety, depression, and even our skin. Dr. Chan shares practical, science-backed tips to reduce bloating, support digestion, curb sugar cravings, and shift your mindset around food—plus her honest takes on popular health trends like intermittent fasting and cold plunging. We also get into cosmetic acupuncture, what not to do on your period, how emotions manifest physically, and how to “eat your skincare” by nourishing your blood and creating a vibrant, resilient body from the inside out.This episode is brought to you by:Get 20% off your order at Bakedbymelissa.com/BLONDE.Go to ProLonLife.com/BLONDE for 15% off plus a $40 bonus gift when you subscribe to their 5-day program.Visit Hungryroot.com/blonde and use code blonde for 40% off your first box.Go to fromourplace.com/BLONDE and use code BLONDE for 10% off sitewide.Get $10 off your first month's subscription and enjoy free shipping when you visit Nutrafol.com and use promo code BLONDE.Go to Quince.com/blonde for 365-day returns, plus free shipping on your order.Please note that this episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

Cold plunges. Exogenous ketones. Pu-erh tea--but hold the breakfast: it's all par for the morning routine, at least if you're entrepreneur, self-experimenter, and king of the lifehacks, Tim Ferriss. From how he manages the challenges of his celebrity to how he manages to stay in great shape; how he does--and when he doesn't--harness the power of AI; and how he preps for a podcast designed to help us live richer, fuller, and healthier lives, the bestselling 4-Hour Workweek author and billion-downloads podcaster speaks with EconTalk's Russ Roberts about what it's really like to be him, and more.

In this fiery and brutally honest episode of BS Free MD, Drs. May and Tim Hindmarsh take aim at the billion-dollar longevity industry. They dissect the hype around anti-aging books and wellness fads—from Outlive by Peter Attia to the extreme regimens of tech millionaires like Brian Johnson—and ask: Is it all just a marketing scam?Tim rants about the absurdity of titles like Young Forever and How Not to Age, while May reflects on the emotional toll of chronic health issues that make those promises feel out of reach. They argue that true wellness isn't about chasing immortality, but about optimizing your lifestyle to enjoy what you love for as long as you can.Along the way, they call out:Biohacking cultsTechno-paganismCold plunge fads (yes, they predict you'll see them at garage sales soon)The spiritual emptiness of trying to live foreverInstead, they offer a refreshingly grounded take: move your body, sleep well, eat less junk, nurture your relationships, and do the fun stuff that lights you up. That's real “healthspan.”GET SOCIAL WITH US!

If social media and certain influential podcast hosts are to be believed, cold plunges can do everything from boosting your immune system to reducing inflammation to acting as an antidote for depression. But what does the science say? Joining Host Flora Lichtman to throw at least a few drops of cold water on this science of plunging is biologist François Haman, who studies human performance and cold exposure.And, with the help of the HBO show “Last Week Tonight,” a minor league baseball team in Pennsylvania rebranded themselves the Erie Moon Mammoths. That comes just a few months after the Utah NHL franchise renamed itself the Utah Mammoth as a nod to that state's paleontological past. So, why are mammoths back? And do they really have what it takes to be a successful team mascot? Paleontologist Advait Jukar joins Host Flora Lichtman to weigh in.Guests: Dr. François Haman is a biologist at the University of Ottawa who studies how the human body responds to extreme environments.Dr. Advait Jukar is the assistant Curator of Vertebrate Paleontology at the Florida Museum of Natural History.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

In this Fitness Fridya episode, Dr. Stacy Sims and I dive into the truth.  We discuss the peptide craze, exploring why BPC-157 might be the only one worth considering, and why WADA banning it actually proves it works.

In this wildly entertaining and thought-provoking episode, we dive headfirst into the world of biohacking—the movement that's turning health into a high-tech DIY experiment. Is it a real revolution in wellness, or just the latest Silicon Valley wellness flex? Here's what you'll discover in this episode: Why tech entrepreneurs are spending millions a year to age backward The wild experiments of Bryan Johnson, including metrics you never thought needed tracking What “optimizing your mitochondria” actually means (and why people are obsessed with it) The philosophical side of biohacking: is it personal empowerment—or just data addiction? Why tracking your sleep might actually be ruining it The uncomfortable truth about who can afford to biohack Are wearables helping you tune in—or tuning you out of your own body? We'll also explore how biohacking is reshaping digital wellness, the risks of going too far, and what this movement says about the future of personal health in a tech-driven world. Whether you're a die-hard health hacker or just wondering if buttered coffee is worth the hype, this episode breaks it all down with insight, humor, and a healthy dose of skepticism. Is biohacking the key to a better life—or just a better-looking Instagram post? Tune in to find out.

Thanks to voices like Dr. Andrew Huberman and Dr. Stacy Sims, cold plunging has gotten a lot of attention over the last few years - but today I'm bringing you someone who goes even deeper. Dr. Thomas P. Seager is, in my opinion, one of the world's top experts on ice bathing. Not only did he use it to reverse his own chronic health conditions (conditions doctors couldn't explain, let alone treat), but he's also helped countless people use cold therapy to recover from debilitating and even terminal illnesses.In this episode, we explore how cold exposure impacts hormones, fertility, mitochondrial health, and so much more. I also share a bit about my own pregnancy and experience with cold plunging. Topics Discussed:→ Can cold plunge therapy improve hormone balance?→ Does ice bathing help with fertility and testosterone?→ How does cold exposure support mitochondrial health?→ Can chronic illness be reversed with cold therapy?Sponsored By:→ Black Lotus Shilajit | Visit: www.blacklotusshilajit.com and Use Code: SARAHK for 15% the entire site!→ Bon Charge | Click here & use code for SARAHKLEINER for 15% off storewide. → Troscriptions | There's a completely new way to optimize your health.

Hey, Heal Squad! This week's Roundtable is turning the temperature up (and way down) as they dive into the wellness world's favorite trends: cold plunges and saunas. Are they really the ultimate healing tools—or are we just copying viral biohacks that don't fit our unique bodies? We're breaking down what everyone's talking about: the “Joe Rogan Method” of 39°F cold plunging with methylene blue. Is it effective? Dr. Allison shares why context, mitochondrial health, and even your ancestral DNA play a huge role in how your body responds to cold. We also explore sauna detox strategies and the truth about why sweating isn't always as simple as it seems. PLUS, Maria opens up about her own experience with cryotherapy and why she stopped cold plunging after expert advice.

In this week's episode of The Wellness Scoop, we're diving into some of the most talked-about trends and headlines in health and wellness. We look at the new science around ageing reveals we don't age steadily — but in three distinct bursts at 34, 60 and 78. What's happening inside our bodies, and what can we do about it? Are cold plunges actually hurting your muscle growth? We break down the bold claim that they reduce gains by 66% — and what the research really shows. Olive oil shots are the latest TikTok wellness craze — promising better digestion, fewer cravings and glowing skin. But do the benefits hold up beyond the buzz? We also look at the trend of morning routines.  Plus, we discuss a major new report on alcohol and breast cancer risk, explore whether pets might actually make us happier than our partners, and ask whether wellness routines have gone too far in the pursuit of “optimization.” And in our listener question this week: how do you talk to kids about “unhealthy” food without creating shame or fear?
