Podcasts about fat burning

Dr. Abbie Smith-Ryan explains how muscle quality changes in perimenopause and how HIIT, heavy lifting and protein timing help women over 40 train smarter. In perimenopause, muscle can shift from a lean "filet" toward a "rib eye," with more fat and connective tissue inside it, and a DEXA or InBody can't detect it. Dr. Abbie Smith-Ryan explains why heavier, higher power training recruits the type 2 fibers that fade with age, how 1 minute on, 1 minute off HIIT appears to reduce visceral fat in as little as three weeks, why fat burning is not fat loss, and when about 20g of protein before training helps. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN Why muscle quality, not just muscle size, may change first in perimenopause How 1 minute on, 1 minute off HIIT targets visceral fat in midlife women Why fat burning during zone 2 is not the same as fat loss When training fasted costs you results, and when it does not TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Intro: Muscle Quality in Perimenopause and Why a DEXA Can't Measure It 06:31 - How to Train for Muscle Quality After 40: Heavy Load, Power and Type 2 Fibers 10:13 - HIIT and Visceral Fat in Midlife Women: The 1 Minute On, 1 Minute Off Protocol 16:01 - The 30 Minute Heavy Lifting Protocol, the Norwegian 4x4 and Where Zone 2 Fits 25:38 - Fasted vs Fed Training for Women 40+: Protein Before or After Exercise 37:58 - Losing Leg and Glute Definition, HRT and Why Your Symptoms Are Valid 44:28 - Fiber, Omega-3s and Creatine Dosing for Muscle and Brain in Perimenopause 54:05 - Perimenopause Is a Metabolic Transition: Final Advice VALUABLE RESOURCES Effects of high-intensity interval training on cardiometabolic risk factors in overweight/obese women, Journal of Sports Sciences (Smith-Ryan et al.

Send us Fan MailTrevor Folgering is the founder of The Metabolic Operating System (MOS), a metabolic health education and coaching system designed to help men over 40 improve their metabolism, energy, body composition, recovery, and long-term health.With more than 25 years of experience in health, fitness, nutrition, and coaching, Trevor's work challenges the traditional “eat less, exercise more” approach to weight loss. Instead, he teaches men to understand the metabolic signals their bodies are sending them - including hunger, energy, sleep, stress, cravings, and recovery, and use those signals to make better decisions about their health.At the heart of Trevor's philosophy is a simple idea: lasting change doesn't come from fighting your body harder. It comes from understanding how your body is adapting and learning how to work with it.Through The Metabolic Operating System, Trevor is working to change the conversation around metabolic health for men over 40 and help men build healthier, stronger bodies without relying on extreme diets or unsustainable approaches.Find Trevor at-https://rebuildyourmetabolism.com/Find Boundless Body at-myboundlessbody.comBook a session with us here! 

Sleep, Growth Hormone, and Autophagy: How Rest, Diet, and Fasting Support Metabolic Health and Longevity: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses how deep, early non-REM sleep boosts growth hormone for muscle, bone, fat burning, and metabolic health, and reviews a Cell study in which UC Berkeley researchers mapped hypothalamic circuits and feedback through the locus coeruleus showing a tight balance between sleep, growth hormone release, and wakefulness, with implications for metabolic disease and neurodegeneration. She connects poor sleep to higher blood sugar, insulin, and cortisol, which can suppress growth hormone, and advises avoiding sweet post-workout foods (e.g., smoothies, bananas, fruit yogurt) that stimulate insulin and blunt growth hormone, recommending protein and fat instead. She then explains autophagy and mitophagy as cellular cleanup processes linked to longevity, noting autophagy peaks after 12 hours of fasting, highlighting roles in mitochondrial quality control, immunity, and neurodegenerative disease, and mentions interventions such as fasting, exercise, ketogenic diets, and investigational inducers like rapamycin and urolithin A.

Send us Fan MailIf you feel like your metabolism is “slow,” the usual advice sounds painfully simple: eat less, exercise more, repeat forever. We take a different angle and it starts with a more honest target: body composition. When you reduce visceral fat while protecting or building lean muscle, you change the drivers of inflammation, insulin resistance, cardiometabolic risk, and long-term health span. That shift also makes the process feel less like punishment and more like training your physiology to work for you. Mark and John walk through a practical fat loss strategy that is not obsessed with the scale. The foundation is resistance training and eating with a purpose, especially prioritizing protein and including enough dietary fat to help your body get better at fat oxidation. We also dig into the timing piece that many people miss: morning meals can set your insulin tone for the whole day, and a high-protein breakfast can support muscle protein synthesis plus the thermic effect of food. You'll hear concrete examples of what meals can look like, why flour-based processed carbs are uniquely problematic, and when root vegetables may be a smarter carbohydrate choice than grains. Then we zoom out to one of the most fascinating tools for metabolic health: brown adipose tissue. We explain brown fat versus white fat, how thermogenesis works, and why cold exposure, strength training-related myokines, and compounds like capsaicin, green tea, ginger, and omega-3-rich foods show up in research on metabolic flexibility. The bigger theme is simple: modern comfort removes the stressors that once kept humans resilient, and selectively bringing a few back can be empowering. If you want a clearer, science-backed roadmap for burning fat while building strength, listen now, subscribe, share with a friend who's stuck, and leave a quick review with your biggest takeaway.For video and recent open source reviews: www.thehealthedgepodcast.com

Fasting gets a lot of attention for what happens while you're not eating, but what happens when you start eating again deserves just as much attention.In this solo episode, Dr. Mindy breaks down one of the most overlooked parts of fasting: the refeed.She explains why longer isn't always better when it comes to fasting, how the eating and fasting windows work together, and why protein, carbohydrates, fiber, fermented foods, and plant diversity can all have a place in your fasting rhythm.She also takes on some of the biggest conversations happening around fasting right now, including thyroid health, muscle loss, the gut microbiome, fasting after 45, GLP-1, autophagy, meal timing, and whether women really need to eat protein first thing in the morning.In This EpisodeWhy fasting longer isn't necessarily fasting betterWhy your first meal after a fast deserves more attentionWhat happens to thyroid hormones during extended fasting and refeedingWhy carbohydrates and protein matter after longer fastsWhat fasting may change within your gut microbiomeWhy plant diversity and fermented foods matter during your eating windowThe debate around fasting for women over 45Why Mindy cycles fasting rather than using the same fasting window every dayWhether you really need protein immediately after wakingHow to experiment with an eating window that works for your body and lifestyleThe difference between your sugar-burning and fat-burning statesHow nutrients can stimulate your body's natural GLP-1 responseFor more resources related to today's episode, visit the podcast episode page: drmindypelz.com/370 Connect with Dr. Mindy:Join Reset AcademyWatch the episodes on YouTubeFollow Dr. Mindy on InstagramSubscribe to Dr. Mindy's newsletterDisclaimer: This podcast is intended for educational and informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice.

Every organ in your body keeps its own internal clock, and UT Health San Antonio researcher Kevin Koronowski is studying how that clock controls fat metabolism. His lab is investigating a protein pair that decides when the body burns fat and when it stores it, work that could eventually improve treatments for metabolic disease.

Is the best exercise for improving your metabolism also one of the simplest?In this episode of The Life Possible Podcast, Dr. John Barnes is joined by Ideal Protein's Director of Sales & Account Management and fitness enthusiast, Meghan Davis, to challenge one of the biggest misconceptions in health and fitness: that harder is always better.Together, they explore why Zone 2 training—simple, conversational-paced movement like brisk walking—may be one of the most effective ways to improve metabolic health, increase fat burning, boost energy, and build habits that last a lifetime.They also introduce the new Ideal Protein Strava Club, a free community designed to help members stay motivated, accountable, and connected through movement.In this episode, you'll learn:·       Why Zone 2 is the "sweet spot" for metabolic health and fat burning.·       How to know if you're exercising at the right intensity. (Hint: housework doesn't count!)·       Why this is NOT about “how many steps” you got today.·       Why movement should support your metabolism—not compete with it.·       How accountability and community can transform your long-term success.Whether you're just beginning your health journey or looking for a sustainable approach to lifelong wellness, this episode will change the way you think about exercise.Stop trying to burn more calories.

What if your body hasn't forgotten how to burn fat—it just needs a new set of instructions? So many women reach perimenopause or menopause and suddenly feel like everything that used to work has stopped working. You may be eating less, exercising more, and trying harder than ever, yet the scale refuses to move and the belly fat continues to settle around your middle. Your body is not broken, my friend. It is simply responding to changing hormones, declining muscle, blood sugar fluctuations, stress, and inadequate recovery. In this episode of The Menopause Makeover Podcast, I'm sharing six simple ways to help turn fat burning back on after 40. We'll talk about starting your day with a high-protein breakfast, prioritizing protein throughout the day, using carbohydrates strategically, building muscle, walking consistently, and protecting your sleep. You do not need to starve yourself or punish your body to lose weight. You need to nourish it, strengthen it, and create an environment where it feels safe to release stored belly fat. Ready for support, accountability, and a clear midlife plan? Join me inside the Belly Fat Breakthrough Tribe and let's help you feel strong, confident, and at home in your body again.   FULL BLOG + SHOW NOTES Read the full article and grab the resources mentioned in today's episode:

Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1928DM Most people have spent years obsessing over what to eat. Dr. Mindy Pelz says that's exactly the wrong question. Your body runs two energy systems. One runs on food. The other only kicks in after 8 to 10 hours without eating. That's the fat-burning, brain-sharpening, hunger-suppressing system. Most people never get there. That's why diets keep failing. You're only working with half the machine. Mindy breaks down how to train into fasting gradually. Trying to jump straight to long fasts is like running a marathon with three weeks of 3-mile runs. Lewis learned that the hard way. She also gives one dead-simple rule for timing meals: eat when it's light out. Once darkness hits and melatonin rises, your body stores what you eat as fat. The suffering at hour 12? That's your body repairing itself. That's the point. Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Nutrition Nugget! Bite-sized bonus episodes offer tips, tricks and approachable science. This week, Jenn is talking about zero-calorie drinks and whether they are really the guilt-free option we have been led to believe. A well-known Copenhagen study compared four groups of people who drank a liter a day of regular soda, diet soda, milk, or water for six months, and the results were surprising enough to stop anyone mid-sip. Could a beverage with absolutely no calories still be working against your blood sugar, waistline and your metabolism? What do your gut, your pancreas, and even your taste buds have to do with it? Jenn digs into the science, questions the study's details, and shares what she has seen play out in real life with herself and her clients for years. But before you toss your diet soda or defend it to the end, you should hear what Jenn has to say about who this affects, why, and whether the calorie count on the label is telling you anywhere near the whole story.
