Send us Fan MailMost women have spent years hearing the same fitness advice:Eat less.Exercise more.Do more cardio.Try harder.But what happens when you're doing all the "right" things and your body still isn't responding the way it used to?In this episode, Cody sits down with Ariana Hakman, Founder and COO of LunaFit, to discuss what women really need to know about fitness, muscle, metabolism, recovery, and aging well.Together they unpack why traditional fitness advice often falls short for women, especially during midlife, and why building strength may be one of the most important investments a woman can make for her future health.You'll learn:• Why fitness often feels harder as women age • What happens to muscle mass and metabolism over time • Common fitness myths women should stop believing • Why strength training matters for hormones, blood sugar, confidence, and longevity • How chronic stress impacts recovery and results • Signs your body may be under-recovered or overtrained • The role of protein, walking, sleep, and stress management in long-term health • How to create a sustainable fitness routine during busy seasons of life • Why fitness should be viewed as self-respect instead of punishment • What women can do now to remain strong, active, and independent for decades to comeThis conversation is a refreshing reminder that fitness isn't about becoming smaller.It's about becoming stronger.It's about having the energy, resilience, and confidence to fully participate in your life.Connect with Ariana Hakman & LunaFit:Website: https://lunafit.com Instagram: @lunafitapp TikTok: @lunafituniverseConnect with Cody:Website: https://mixhers.com use code Cody for 15% off Instagram: @codyjeansanders Instagram: @mixhersWant to learn more about Cody's HTMA Mineral Testing and CALM Program?

What if the best workout for your body is not the hardest one, but the one you can actually keep showing up for? In this episode of hol+, Dr. Taz sits down with Megan Roup, founder of The Sculpt Society, celebrity trainer, mother, former professional dancer, and creator of a movement method designed to help women build strength, confidence, and consistency without burnout. Together, they explore why so many women feel overwhelmed by midlife fitness advice, especially around strength training, cardio, cortisol, pelvic floor health, menopause, and body composition.Megan shares why extreme, all-or-nothing workout plans often fail women in real life, especially during midlife when hormones, sleep, stress, family responsibilities, and energy levels are constantly shifting. She explains how shorter, well-programmed workouts can still support muscle, bone density, cardiovascular health, mobility, and emotional well-being.Dr. Taz and Megan also discuss pelvic floor function, progressive overload, cardio myths, GLP-1 medications, body image, intuitive movement, and why body confidence does not come from being thin. Megan offers a more realistic, joyful, and sustainable way to think about movement as medicine, especially for women navigating perimenopause, menopause, postpartum recovery, and the constant transitions of life.This episode is for anyone who has ever felt like fitness became another source of pressure instead of a path back to themselves.If you're listening to this and thinking, “I know something is off in my body, but I don't know where to start,” join the Circle here:
If we had to start our performer fitness journey again from scratch tomorrow… what would we actually do differently?After years in the industry, hundreds of clients coached, countless mistakes made, and more than enough overtraining, burnout, and chaos, we sat down to answer one big question:What actually matters?In this episode, we break down the real training, nutrition, and mindset advice we wish someone had given us when we first started performing professionally.We cover:• Why consistency beats intensity every single time• The truth about training 5–6 days a week• Why performers should prioritise energy management, not just time management• The biggest nutrition mistakes performers make• Why protein and structure matter more than perfection• How social media fitness trends keep performers stuck• Why longevity and performance matter more than chasing aesthetics• The “boring basics” that actually transform your body and careerWe also chat about:• Last One Laughing Season 2• The new Steve Carell comedy Rooster!• Why simple training works better than fancy workouts• Infinite chess• And why “Bustin' Makes Me Feel Good” might now become a warm-up playlist staple…This episode is packed with practical advice for performers who want to feel stronger, healthier, more resilient, and less overwhelmed by the noise of the fitness industry.If you're tired of overcomplicating health and fitness, this one's for you.

Check out the Evolve Community at http://evolve.geekpsychology.comI got a comment asking why INFPs can't stay physically fit or consistent, and honestly it hit close to home. Bad knees, bad back, bad shoulders. I've been there. And it's not laziness or lack of discipline. It's something deeper in how we're wired.In this video I pull three cards from my Inner Quest deck live and use them to break down exactly what's going on with INFP physical health and consistency.Here's what we cover:Why the Guardian function, your introverted sensing, runs on low volume and what that costs you physically over time. Why INFPs swing from zero to obsessed and back to zero, and why that's a function mismatch, not a character flaw. Why we quit the moment something stops feeling meaningful, and how to fix that without forcing discipline that doesn't fit how you think. How to use your Fi, your values and emotional motivators, to actually stay consistent long term.If you've ever hurt yourself going too hard too fast, or watched years go by without building a single health habit that stuck, this one is for you.00:00 Fit vs Consistent00:22 Why INFPs Get Hurt01:02 The Guardian and Body Awareness04:03 Open Opportunity Card Pull06:06 Avoiding All Or Nothing Burnout08:40 Navigate Maze and Tracking09:48 Make Fitness Meaningful12:51 Decipher Schema and 80 2014:21 Step By Step Action Plan15:23 Emotional Motivation Wrap Up
Most health and fitness advice for women is based on research done in men. That's something we need to rethink. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with Dr. Stacy Sims, an exercise physiologist and leading researcher in women's health. Her work has focused on how female physiology actually changes over time—and how training and nutrition need to change with it. Watch the full conversation on YouTube, or listen wherever you get your podcasts. We explore: • Why eating less and doing more cardio can make fat loss harder • What actually changes in your metabolism in your 30s and 40s • How to train for strength—and why it matters for long-term health • Why most workouts aren't building muscle (and what to do instead) • How to eat and time protein to support recovery, energy, and better sleep A lot of the advice women have been given doesn't account for how the body actually changes. Adjusting how you train and eat can make a meaningful difference in your energy, strength, and long-term health.

Most runners focus on training mileage, but the real performance breakthrough happens in the days before the race. Recovery is not a passive process. It is an active, intentional strategy that determines how your body adapts, stores energy, and performs under pressure. In the lead-up to the Sanlam Cape Town Marathon, understanding how to taper correctly, fuel effectively, and manage your nervous system can be the difference between hitting the wall and finishing strong. This is the phase where smart runners separate themselves from the rest. Fitness presenter and mental fitness coach Liezel van der Westhuizen joins Africa Melane to unpack the critical role of recovery before race day. With insights grounded in endurance training, stress physiology, and real-world racing experience, she explains how to manage taper anxiety, optimise sleep, and avoid common mistakes that leave runners fatigued before they even start. If you want to feel prepared, powerful, and mentally sharp on race day, this is the guidance you cannot afford to miss.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
I'm finding an occurring struggle when talking with women about all things health: the noise, the chaos, all the different "experts" and advice thrown at them does 2 things, 1. creates overwhelm & confusion, 2. creates analysis paralysis, and they stay stagnant and not taking action because they just aren't sure what to do when it comes to their health. In today's episode we are gonna chat some TRUTH and about how listening to 47 other voices isn't what God has called us to do. The real problem isn't that you are doing anything wrong, or that you don't have enough information, the problem is Satan loves confusion & chaos, where as Jesus brings PEACE and clarity. We don't have a lack of information, we have a lack of "anchors". Trends are always changing which also means there no real consistency. Today we talk about the basics, and the one and only TRUE voice that matters!
With all the contradictory advice online, establishing the optimal workout routine can be SO confusing. So today, I'm joined by expert Harley Pasternak to rank fitness advice from social media to clear things up. Harley has a masters in exercise physiology and nutritional sciences, he worked as an exercise and nutrition scientist for Canada's Department of National Defense, he's a five-time bestselling author, and he has the biggest celebrity client roster in the fitness industry—Halle Berry, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, and Ariana Grande to name a few.
Women's health and performance science is finally catching up—but for decades, much of the research guiding training, nutrition, and recovery was built primarily on male physiology. That mismatch has left many women feeling like they're doing everything right—training hard, eating “clean,” tracking their metrics—yet still struggling with energy, metabolism, recovery, and body composition.In this episode of the Crackin' Backs Podcast, we sit down with Abbie Smith-Ryan, one of the world's leading researchers in female metabolism, performance physiology, and body composition, to explore what happens when we finally study women's bodies on their own terms.Drawing from hundreds of peer-reviewed publications and years of clinical and laboratory research, Dr. Smith-Ryan explains how women's hormones, metabolism, muscle physiology, and fueling strategies influence everything from athletic performance to long-term health and longevity.In this episode, we explore:Why much of the traditional fitness and nutrition advice for women was built on male dataWhat actually happens to metabolism and body composition during perimenopause and menopauseWhy many active women are chronically under-fueling without realizing itThe growing research behind creatine for women's health, muscle, and brain performanceWhy muscle may be one of the most powerful longevity organsThe role of strength training vs cardio in women's long-term healthThe pros and cons of wearables, hormone panels, and optimization toolsThe highest-impact habits women can implement without expensive testingDr. Smith-Ryan also discusses the future of women-specific exercise science, why we may need to start these conversations much earlier in life, and what she hopes women ultimately believe differently about their bodies.This episode is essential listening for anyone interested in:women's healthfemale metabolismstrength training for womencreatine supplementationmenopause performancebody composition sciencelongevity and muscle healthAbout Dr. Abbie Smith-RyanAbbie Smith-Ryan is an internationally recognized exercise physiologist, researcher, and professor at the University of North Carolina–Chapel Hill, where she directs the Applied Physiology Laboratory.Her research focuses on female metabolism, exercise performance, body composition, sports nutrition, and dietary supplementation, with particular emphasis on women across the lifespan—from athletes to women navigating menopause. She has authored hundreds of scientific publications and is widely recognized as a leader in translating complex metabolic science into practical strategies for real-world health and performance.Her work has been featured in major scientific journals and global media outlets, helping shape the modern conversation around women's physiology, muscle health, and metabolic resilience.

When fitness advice tells you to push harder, but you feel more tired, anxious, and discouraged instead, this short Christian devotional is for the woman who feels like she's doing everything right, yet nothing seems to work anymore. This devotional is a pause. A gentle invitation to step out of the noise of fitness culture and return to God's wisdom when the advice around you feels loud, certain, and exhausting. This episode isn't about trying harder. It's about asking God for wisdom in a season where your body feels unfamiliar or overwhelmed. In today's devotional, we reflect on: Why pushing harder isn't always the faithful response for women How wisdom matters more than discipline in changing seasons What it looks like to listen to your body without guilt or shame How God invites us to ask for wisdom instead of striving Why caring for your body can be an act of worship—not pressure Scripture reminds us that when we feel confused or worn down, God invites us to ask Him for wisdom: "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him." — James 1:5 If you've tried every plan and feel close to giving up, this devotional is a reminder that God desires health for you—not punishment, perfection, or exhaustion. If this episode encouraged you, please share it with a friend who feels worn down by fitness advice that no longer fits. You can also help reach more women by leaving a five-star review on Apple or Spotify. Every review helps another woman find hope, clarity, and Christ-centered strength. Remember — You are Strong. Confident. His.
Easy fitness advice sounds good — but it doesn't produce results. Quick fixes, shortcuts, and “just stay positive” messaging ignore the real work required for change. In this episode, I break down why easy fitness advice fails and why effort, structure, and discipline are non-negotiable for real progress.
Soft fitness advice sounds nice — but it doesn't work. Telling people “just be kind to yourself” without structure, discipline, or accountability keeps them stuck. In this episode, I break down why soft fitness advice gets people nowhere and why real results require honesty, effort, and consistency.
Fitness advice didn't get harsher — people got more sensitive to accountability. Talking about calories, consistency, effort, and discipline now sounds offensive in a culture built on comfort and excuses. In this episode, I break down why fitness advice sounds harsh now and why honesty is still the fastest path to real results.

Quotes to ponder: “Belly fat is particularly tricky to lose, for some reason, it's really stubborn.” “There is no magic pill or magic routine that will guarantee the loss of belly fat.” “Doing this alone will not lead to belly fat loss, what it will do is to help those muscles pop once the belly fat starts to shrink down.” Episode references: Bastyr University: https://bastyr.edu American College of Sports Medicine: https://www.acsm.org Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, I call out some dangerous and misguided fitness advice floating around on social media—like a post from a PhD in exercise physiology suggesting that everyone should go run for 45 minutes in 100-degree heat to boost their VO₂ max. Sure, the science on heat training is interesting and real, but context matters. For elite athletes training for world championships, carefully managed heat exposure can make sense. For the other 99.9% of people, it’s a fast track to burnout, breakdown, or even the ER. I break down the difference between training stress that builds fitness versus stress that destroys it, explain how to recognize the signs of overtraining, and share why fatigue is feedback, not weakness. I also revisit my critique of Layne Norton’s “push through it no matter what” philosophy and contrast that with what smart athletes actually do—monitor recovery, track readiness, and adjust daily. To wrap up, I share lessons from my own mistakes, insights from coach Cynthia Monteleone, and why true recovery days sometimes mean actually resting. TIMESTAMPS: Brad takes issue with the recommendation that people exercise in 100 degree heat. [01:10] If you are talking about competitive athletes, rather than the general population, that would be different. [03:30] Running is too stressful for the vast majority of participants. [06:37] The main two reasons for poor performance and workouts are one, over training and two, de-training. [10:27] You are literally training the body to get slower, weaker and less efficient with poor technique when you train and push your body through signs of poor movement patterns. Fatigue is feedback, not weakness. [12:10] If you don't feel like working out one day, that is a signal from the control center, your brain. [17:57] There is a huge distinction between endurance athletes where they always have that obligation to keep that aerobic system going with low intensity recovery days versus a true recovery day for a high intensity power athlete which entails sitting around and resting.

The foremost health authority, the contrarian, and voice of reason is spouting this level of misinformation, so I think it deserves the acronym: A-Y-F-K-M. Dr. Layne Norton, internet health influencer and self-titled Truth Seeker and debunker, has delivered the single worst piece of fitness advice imaginable. There is no more potentially destructive message to convey besides telling people to push through fatigue, crappy workouts, and poor movement patterns. So inspired by the Debunker himself, I'm going after you. Layne Norton has a PhD in nutritional sciences, a background as a champion powerlifter and bodybuilder, and is known for debunking fitness misinformation and pseudoscience. But recently, he posted one of his many deadlift clips with the message that training is like investing in the stock market. He even detailed a week of “moving crappy,” “moving really crappy,” and being “happy” about grinding it out anyway. Here’s what you will learn from this episode: Why pushing through fatigue and poor form is a recipe for injury, burnout, and attrition The flaws with the dated no pain, no gain mentality that simply won’t die Exercise physiology insights: ATP, lactate, glycolysis, and aerobic energy systems Why the anaerobic system requires extensive rest and recovery, not grinding through bad workouts Technical failure versus pushing to failure, and why form matters most Interesting science-based insights on the power of performing theatrics before a peak performance effort and why lighter weight and excellent form are the real win Deadlifting dangers, proper technique, and why novices should get expert guidance Finally, you will hear about what you should do when experiencing symptoms of suboptimal recovery and the value of applying an intuitive approach—especially when it comes to times that you “just don’t feel like it” and what that feeling can signify (hint: it has to do with your emotions and your central nervous system). TIMESTAMPS: Dr. Layne Nortron is known for debunking some of the science that is out there telling us what is good to eat. [01:03] Brad confronts one of Layne's posts about training and recovery. Layne treats training like investing. [04:39] Elites manage their energy very carefully every single day, week, month of training. [10:02] ATP, the source for immediate explosive efforts lasting from zero to seven seconds, becomes completely exhausted after seven seconds [14:33] Working through crappy form and feeling horrible during your warmup is in direct opposition to how the anaerobic system develops. [20:59] Doug McGuff has come up with the Big Five Workout strategy, which you do only once a week that keeps you strong. [31:47] If you attempt to work through crappy form and low scores on the readiness-to-train scale, you are training the central nervous system to fire less explosively and teaching your brain to be able to left ledds weight. [35:38] Pavel Tsatsouline explains why he doesn't see the point of training to muscular failure. [38:37] Six sets of three is the same as three sets of six, but you get less tired. [40:45] Brad critiques Layne's analogy of exercising is like the stock market. [43:56] Performing theatrics before a peak performance effort actually does help prime the centtral nervous system for peak performance. [45:41] You want to preserve a straight and elongated spine with eveything you do in the gym. [50:06] Deadlifting is a random exercise and potentially dangerous. If you're novice, get that trusted expert for one-on-one instruction before you even try. [58:19] Beware of internet blather from influencers. [01:01:21] Always take what your body gives you each day and nothing more. [01:02:06] LINKS: Brad Kearns.com BradNutrition.com B.rad Whey Protein Superfuel - The Best Protein on The Planet!

Using recent research, she discusses the benefits of minimal exercise on cardiovascular health and longevity but also highlights the limitations of this advice. She emphasizes the need for strength training and power exercises to meet the comprehensive physical needs of the body, especially as we age.

Episode 304: Water Buffalo, Space People & The Dumpster Fire of Fitness AdviceWelcome back to Happy Hour With Jay! Today, we're kicking things off with a shoutout to Steve Ricks—because real ones deserve recognition. Then, did you know water buffalo can hold their breath for five minutes? That's longer than most people can hold a plank—just saying.Next, we're diving into the absolute dumpster fire that is fitness advice on the internet. Social media might just be your worst enemy when it comes to getting fit, and I'm here to break down why.Then, astronauts (aka Space People) just spent 286 days in space, and I have some thoughts. Because, honestly, how do they do it?In the Reality TV corner, we're talking Temptation Island and Mark Walberg—no, not that one, the other one. And in the Jared Update, let's just say he's found a unique way to brush up on his Spanish (hint: it involves tacos).Speaking of tacos, imagine a perfect world where tortas don't make you fat—wouldn't that be nice?And finally, a gym story that'll make you rethink everything: The Gym vs. Victoria's Secret. Let's just say, young men today have no idea what a struggle it used to be.Closing things out with some motivation—because fear is a mile wide and an inch deep, and it's time to break through it.Grab your drink, sit back, and let's get into it—cheers!
