Fast fat loss in menopause is not really the goal. Let's be realistic and say this right out of the gate. Fast fat loss is a myth. You may, however, drop inflammation fairly quickly with the right type of exercise. Part 1: The Fat Burning Fundamentals Let's start with the basics. When we talk about fat burning during exercise, we need to understand two key concepts: Percentage of Fat Used for Fuel Total Calories Burned Here's something surprising: At rest, we burn about 85% fat for fuel. Your body is already a fat-burning machine when you're sitting on the couch! Here's where it gets interesting.. During low-intensity exercise like walking, you burn a higher percentage of fat for fuel, but you're burning calories at a slower rate overall. During high-intensity exercise like running, you burn a lower percentage of fat for fuel, but you're torching calories much faster. Part 2: The EPOC Effect - Your Metabolic Afterburn EPOC or Excess Post-Exercise Oxygen Consumption, but I like to call it your metabolic afterburn. This is the energy your body continues to burn AFTER your workout is over. High-intensity exercise creates a significant EPOC effect. Your body keeps burning calories for hours after you finish your workout as it works to restore oxygen levels, repair tissues, and return to its normal state. It's like your metabolism stays revved up long after you've stopped moving. Low-intensity exercise produces minimal EPOC. Once you stop walking, your metabolism pretty quickly returns to baseline. You burned calories during the activity, but the party's over when you stop. This is where high-intensity exercise starts to look really appealing for fat loss. You're not just burning calories during the workout - you're creating a metabolic boost that lasts for hours. Know the Best Strategy for Fast Fat Loss in Menopause May Surprise You Part 3: Sprints vs Steady-State Running - The Game Changer When we compare running at a slow to moderate pace versus doing sprint intervals, the sprint work wins hands down for fat loss. Sprint intervals create a massive EPOC effect. Your body works harder to recover from intense bursts, burning calories long after you're done. Sprint intervals are incredibly effective at burning both total body fat AND visceral belly fat. The beauty of sprints is that you can get incredible results in much less time. A 15-20 minute sprint session can be more effective for fat loss than an hour of steady jogging. For busy women in menopause, this efficiency factor is huge. Part 4: The Cortisol Connection - Why This Matters in Menopause Now we need to talk about cortisol, because this is where things get really important for women in menopause. High-intensity exercise creates a greater rise in cortisol compared to low-intensity exercise. This isn't necessarily bad! This cortisol response is actually normal and necessary. It's how your body releases blood sugar to be used as fuel and creates energy for exercise. Low-intensity exercise like walking creates little rise in cortisol. Comfortable walking, dancing, yoga, or tai chi often actually REDUCE cortisol levels. The problem isn't the acute cortisol rise from exercise itself. The problem is chronic elevated cortisol combined with high-intensity exercise when your system is already overloaded. If your stress bucket is already overflowing from work, relationships, poor sleep, and hormonal changes, adding high-intensity exercise makes it spill over. When cortisol is chronically elevated, it can sabotage your adrenal function and ultimately affect your thyroid. This is particularly relevant during menopause when our hormone systems are already in flux.

Learn More Here Part 5: The Real Running vs Walking Debate Here's where I want to challenge the traditional running versus walking debate. Maybe it's less about the percentage of fat burned for fuel and more about not burning yourself out. Let me give you a practical example from my own experience: Walking at a 5.0 pace on the treadmill is NOT comfortable for me. It's an effort - I'm breathing hard, I'm sweating, I'm working. But jogging at 5.8? That's actually quite slow for running. It's likely harder on my knees while not really providing enough impact to benefit my bone density. Here's a crucial point: Every time you run - meaning both feet leave the ground - you add four times your body weight in impact to your knee joints. Yet ironically, this repetitive impact isn't the kind of stimulus that optimally benefits bone density once you do it regularly. While jumping and purposeful impact exercises do provide bone density benefits, repetitive exercise loads like jogging don't create additional stress - they just create more of the same stress. So sometimes, a challenging walk might actually give you better results than an easy jog, with less wear and tear on your joints. The sad myth about running vs walking is that it will result in fast fat loss in menopause - or any time for that matter. Smarter Workouts for Fast Fat Loss in Menopause — Without Burnout Part 6: When Your Body Is Telling You to Slow Down Chronic cortisol elevation is often linked to inadequate recovery - particularly nutrition - than to workout intensity itself. If you're on a chronically low-carbohydrate or low-calorie diet, you may experience prolonged cortisol elevations regardless of your exercise. When your body lacks fuel, it compensates by releasing more cortisol to break down fat, muscle, and even bone tissue for energy. Chronic cortisol is more likely under these conditions: Too much too soon (occasional overreaching isn't a problem, but repeated overreaching is) Undereating before, during, or after exercise Lack of rest time between workouts for repair Inadequate sleep Planned diet or fasting state Lower intensity workouts may work better because you're not eating enough, not sleeping enough, or not managing your overall stress load. The biggest problem? Not eating enough. Going too low carb. Making statements like "my body loves this" when it's giving you signs you're exhausted, holding onto weight, or failing to gain muscle. No, it doesn't love it. Part 7: Making the Right Choice for YOU How do you decide between running and walking, or between steady-state and sprint work? Assess your current stress load: How's your sleep? Are you eating enough, especially carbohydrates? How are your energy levels throughout the day? Are you seeing the results you want? If you're well-rested, well-fed, and managing stress effectively, higher intensity work including sprints is incredibly effective for fat loss. If you're stressed, under-fueled, or sleep-deprived, walking or other lower-intensity activities is better right now. That's not settling for less - that's being smart about working WITH your body instead of against it. The best exercise program is what you can do consistently while feeling energized and strong, not depleted and exhausted. Fast Fat Loss in Menopause Differs for Every Body in Every Stage Part 8: Practical Applications For sprint work: Start with just 1-2 sprint sessions per week. These could be 15-30 second all-out efforts followed by as much time needed for recovery, repeated 4-6 times. This gives you maximum fat-burning benefit with minimal time investment. For steady-state work: If you choose to run steadily, make sure it's at an intensity that's appropriately challenging. If you choose to walk, don't be afraid to make it challenging - hills, speed, or resistance can all increase the demand. For recovery: Always prioritize adequate nutrition and sleep. Your results happen during recovery, not just during the workout. Listen to your body's feedback. If you're consistently tired, holding onto weight despite "doing everything right," or feeling burnt out, it might be time to dial down the intensity and focus on recovery. Conclusion The bottom line? Both running and walking can be effective for fat loss, but the devil is in the details. Sprint work offers incredible efficiency and targets visceral fat effectively. Steady-state cardio has its place, especially when recovery demands are high. The key is matching your exercise intensity to your body's current capacity for stress and recovery. During menopause, this becomes even more critical as our hormone systems are already adapting to change. Your exercise program should energize you, not exhaust you. It should work with your lifestyle, not against it. And it should leave you feeling strong and capable, not depleted and overwhelmed. Remember, there's no real magic trick for fast fat loss in menopause. However, you can get there faster - sometimes by slowing down and sometimes by sprinting. But always by weight lifting.

What if real Yoga begins with feeling more alive, not just more flexible? Ari is a Yoga teacher from Korea on a mission to investigate the depth of the Yoga tradition. She discovered a passion to bring the teachings of Krishnamacharya to Korea, along with her dear friend Ray and friends from the Gabbi community. This is a community of young people from Korea who are dropping out of corporate life and patterned conformism, in favour of finding their own path in life. This conversation gets to the heart of the matter — what is Yoga, really? How can it be integrated into the lives of everyday people? The shift from conformity to autonomy is paralleled by the shift from yoga as performance to Yoga as intimacy with our own body and breath… the mystery of our own incarnation. It's a great interview because it is coming from the freshness of Ari's own experience of Yoga, and feeling the breath and movement as one continuous intelligence. And it's a good convo to listen to because both speakers are loving and respecting what the other has to offer. In Short: Yoga Begins with You –The practice adapts to your life, not the other way around Breath is the Guide – Let the breath lead the body and the mind will follow Strength is in Softness – Inhale and exhale are a love relationship, each nourishing the other Real Yoga is Personal – It doesn't require tricks, brands, or poses; it requires honesty Intimacy is the Path – Yoga returns us to real connection with life, with others, and with ourselves Start Where You Are – A short, daily practice made just for you can change everything Find Ari on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ari.yogatraveler Support the Heart of Yoga Foundation: This podcast is sustained by your donations.

In this solo episode, Dr. Marianne Miller, LMFT, breaks down the reality of atypical anorexia and challenges the damaging myth that only thin people struggle with restrictive eating. Despite the name, atypical anorexia is far from rare—and for many people in mid-sized and fat bodies, it goes undetected, misdiagnosed, or even encouraged by medical providers because of weight stigma. Dr. Marianne explores why restriction is deeply harmful regardless of body size, and shares research showing that at least 50% of people who meet anorexia criteria are not in bodies typically identified as anorexic. She also explains how neurodivergence—including autism, ADHD, and OCD traits—can interact with restriction, and why sensory-attuned, neurodivergent-affirming, and trauma-informed care is essential. If you've ever felt like you weren't “sick enough” to deserve support, this episode is here to offer clarity, validation, and the reminder that you are already worthy of care. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE: What atypical anorexia actually means and why the name is misleading The percentage of people with anorexia who are not underweight The effects of weight stigma in delaying eating disorder diagnosis and treatment How restriction harms people in every body size The connection between neurodivergence and restrictive eating Why restriction “counts” even if you haven't lost weight How healing begins with naming the disorder and receiving affirming care CONTENT CAUTIONS: This episode includes discussion of restrictive eating, weight stigma, medical complications, and BMI.

Greetings, friends! This week on the podcast, I sit down with Mike Ciochon, the recently promoted 10th Planet Portland black belt and owner of Asgard 503. We dive into a wide-ranging conversation that blends the technical and cultural evolution of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with the broader influence of modern media. We discuss social media's ever-changing algorithm and how it shapes what we see, especially within the jiu-jitsu community. We get into the topic of belt promotions, maintaining a positive attitude on the journey, and the increasingly debated issue of posting sparring videos online—specifically around consent and respect. We also look ahead to the future of BJJ, discuss how it has evolved, and talk about the importance of knowing how to defend yourself both with and without a weapon. Lastly, we wrap up with some fun talk about music, movies, and how both jiu-jitsu and pop culture seem to be in a cycle of constant rehashing.

Subscribe to our monthly newsletter! Downloadable Discussion Questions for PLCs. In this episode of the Fueling Creativity in Education Podcast, Dr. Matthew Worwood and Dr. Cyndi Burnett highlight insights from their interview with Dr. Kulvarn Atwal, an innovative headteacher and thought leader in education. Together, they explore the transformative power of questioning assumptions and aligning classroom practices with core values to foster creativity and flexibility in schools. Episode Highlights: Real-world examples of how questioning classroom norms can unlock dialogue and creativity. The role of teacher autonomy and flexibility in promoting student engagement. Actionable strategies for creating shared values and expectations with students. Key Quote from Dr. Kulvarn Atwal: "I went into the second school, and the culture was: 'Everybody has to do the same thing because that's what they think consistency is.' That is not consistency. Consistency is consistency of values, consistency of expectations, consistency of aspirations—not consistency of doing the same thing. You're not going to get the outcomes for the children if everyone is doing the same thing." Discussion Questions for PLCs: What values guide your teaching practice, and how do they manifest in your classroom? Are there any routines or assumptions in your school that could benefit from being questioned? How can autonomy and flexibility inspire both educators and students? How do you define "consistency" in your school or classroom? How does this definition impact creativity? What strategies can you use to collaboratively set expectations and values with students at the start of the year?

Anti-diet personal stylist Dacy Gillespie joins us to discuss diet and wellness culture, her bad experience with functional medicine (and what attracted her to it in the first place), how she's dealing with her chronic symptoms now, and why she doesn't think clothes should be “flattering.” Behind the paywall, we get into how to shop for clothes after your body changes, how to start discovering your authentic personal style beyond diet culture's ideals, the advice that revolutionized Christy's approach to fashion, the parallels between intuitive eating and fashion, and more. This episode is cross-posted from our other podcast, Rethinking Wellness. As a weight-inclusive, anti-diet personal stylist, Dacy Gillespie helps her clients reject fashion rules and ideal standards of beauty imposed by the patriarchy, white supremacism, and capitalism so that they can uncover their authentic style. Through their work building a functional wardrobe, Dacy's clients make a mindset shift from thinking they need to wear what's flattering to unapologetically taking up space in the world. After a lifetime of jobs in high-stress careers that didn't suit her highly sensitive, introverted personality, Dacy started mindful closet in 2013 in an attempt to create a more emotionally sustainable lifestyle. Her work has been featured in Forbes, Real Simple, New York Magazine's The Strategist, and Lifehacker, and she is a frequent podcast guest. Dacy lives with her husband and two children in St. Louis, Missouri. Learn more about her work at mindfulcloset.com. Check out Christy's three books, Anti-Diet, The Wellness Trap, and The Emotional Eating, Chronic Dieting, Binge Eating & Body Image Workbook for a deeper dive into the topics covered on the pod.

Kristie is the Yukon Cornelius of casting! She can find anyone! With over 30 years of experience in the industry, Kristie has uncovered a lot in her career. As the co-owner of a Boston-based modeling agency in the 1990's, she provided brands with talent described as “younger, hotter and sexier” in a market that had not seen a new agency open in over 20 years. Her exploration continued when she launched Viewfinder Productions in 2004, laying the groundwork to support productions of all sizes in casting, location scouting, crew coordination and budget management. While contracting with a major toy manufacturer, Kristie realized how little diversity was being represented in the overall messaging. She partnered with several brands to look beyond the expected and find kids who truly represented the scope of their customers. HumanKind, LLC is the culmination of that empowering experience. Kristie is determined to use her creative powers for good in this industry and to work with clients that don't just create images, but create meaningful impact, for both our communities and for our culture at large.
