All that and more in today's episode. Send your feedback, questions, or topic ideas to musclescience4women@gmail.com. Shoutout to our show sponsor Active Stacks!

Let's talk about something that actually matters for your health: muscle. Not just looking "toned" (because, let's be honest, that word is overused and under-explained), but truly building lean muscle—the kind that makes you feel strong, energized, and unstoppable. If you take one thing away from this, let it be this: protein is non-negotiable. I don't care how much you're lifting—if you're not getting enough protein, your body can't build muscle. Period. Most women think they're eating enough protein, but in reality? They're getting half of what they need. Imagine thinking you're filling up your gas tank, but you're actually running on fumes. That's what happens when you skimp on protein. Here's what to do: Aim for at least 120-140g of protein daily (more if you're in menopause!). Space it out throughout the day—think protein pacing, not just one big shake at the end of the night. Lean into easy sources: eggs, chicken, fish, Greek yogurt, protein shakes, and bars. Muscle doesn't magically appear from cardio or tiny pink dumbbells. You need resistance training—something that challenges your muscles so they can rebuild stronger. If you're new to lifting, start small: Push-ups on the kitchen counter → then on your knees → then full push-ups. Bodyweight squats → then add weights → then increase reps. Dumbbell work—presses, rows, lunges—all amazing for muscle growth. Women can gain about 0.5 to 1 pound of muscle per month with consistency. It takes time, but it's 100% worth it. Hormones play a huge role in muscle growth, and your cycle impacts when you build muscle best. Follicular phase (post-period to ovulation): Your body is primed for building muscle. Push harder, lift heavier, challenge yourself. Luteal phase (post-ovulation to period): Recovery takes longer. Focus on maintaining muscle and prioritizing rest. Menopause? Your body needs more protein and heavier weights to achieve the same muscle growth as before. If you're doing everything “right” but still struggling to build muscle, check these culprits: Not eating enough → Muscle growth needs fuel, not restriction. Chronic stress → High cortisol can literally break down your muscle. Poor sleep → Recovery happens when you rest, not when you push harder. So, What Now? No more second-guessing. No more wasting time on workouts that don't work for you. You have the shortcut—protein, strength training, and syncing with your body. Want a step-by-step blueprint customized for you?

Amanda was only drinking socially on the weekends but she still wasn't feeling well which led her on her journey to cut out alcohol and experience physical and emotional freedom and how you can too.

This episode teaches you how to encourage those around you to take a break from drinking and methods and tips to go about that without being "annoying" or like you are stepping over your boundaries.  We also talk about some really interesting non-alcoholic drinks on the market including dealcoholized wine and I share my favorite go-to alcohol free store bought drink as well. So if you're sober curious, grab a drink (alcohol free of course) and tune in and walk away with empowering tips and tricks to living less inflamed, more empowered, and mentally ready to  experience a non-alcohol way of life.  Topics Discussed: What crunchy muscles means Non-alcoholic drinks on the market (and my fav!)

Chris also shares practical tips for determining which goal to prioritize based on your current physique, lifestyle, and ambitions.

In this episode of the Heal Nourish Grow podcast, I share my journey of returning to strength training after a long hiatus. The importance of strength training for longevity and health span, the benefits of starting at any age, and how to overcome common barriers to consistency are topics in this solo episode. I provide practical tips for getting started, understanding progressive overload, and the significance of workout frequency in gaining muscle. I discuss the role of nutrition in supporting strength training goals and resources to find reliable resources for effective training.

Takeaways Strength training is crucial for maintaining bone density as we age. Starting strength training early in life can have long-term benefits. Progressive overload is essential for muscle growth. You can achieve significant results with just two workouts a week. Body weight exercises are a great way to begin strength training at home. Nutrition, including carb intake (GASP), supports muscle growth and recovery. Finding reliable sources of information can enhance your training effectiveness. Strength training is more effective for fat loss than cardio alone. Tracking body composition can provide motivation and insight into progress.

Today I want to share with you some things I've learned when going back to gym over the last 16 months. I guess what I really wanted to share is that I know a lot of people are going to start thinking about New Year's resolutions here soon and you know that I usually do some content towards the end of the year and the beginning of the new year around diet, around exercise, about… tips and tricks and things that you can do to make these things easier if you are adding these into your life. And so this has been a lot on my mind lately because I just made a change at the gym and I'll kind of go a little backwards and share with you just some of the things that I've been learning, what has helped me stay consistent and if you're going to start doing this in the new year, some things that you can do to hopefully make it easier for yourself and not make some of the same mistakes that I did going back. So, Just to give a little bit of background for those of you that may be new here, I've talked about this and shared this a bit in the past. I've been super active my whole life. I was a runner for 17 years, had to quit that because of my knees and I love hiking and anything outdoors. I am very excited to do and love doing. I walk almost every day outside. But what I haven't done consistently over the years is lift weights. And there's just been more and more content and research coming out lately around the benefits of lifting and strength training as far as longevity and just better daily life and the ability to live a better life into your old age. And I know if you're out there and you're younger and you're listening to this, you might not think that you need to start thinking about this now, but the sooner that you can implement this in your life and get it started, the better. There's actually research showing that. Children in particular and young adults like building as much muscle as you can when you're younger can actually help you when you get older because if you even take time off from those things from strength training and stuff at some point in your life and you come back to it if you had built a lot of muscle at a much younger age,
