If you are exercising but not losing weight or gaining muscle after 50, there are some easy and yet not-so-obvious reasons why. This is for all of you exercising but not getting results. Whether you or women you work with are interested in gaining muscle after 50, you may like this: How to Design Strength Programs that Work PRE, peri and post-menopause is a new workshop I'm offering complimentary to our members and existing Menopause Fitness Specialists. If you're interested as a non-member, add your name here to the notifications list. 5 Reasons You May Struggle Losing Fat or Gaining Muscle After 50 Not Working To Muscular Fatigue Starting out: 5-6 reps to fatigue Experienced - 2 reps from reserve Workouts to gain muscle strength: Light - in between 6-30 reps Moderate - +/- 15 reps Heavy - 10 or fewer reps Too Little Recovery 3 things that have to recover: Muscle, Connective tissues, Adrenals Muscle 48 hours of recovery is not enough for a lot of people. As we age, we need more recovery time. If you take too little recovery time, you will feed more tired than better and not gain lean muscle mass. Connective tissues (ligaments & joints) Recovery may be slower and healing from an injury or a strain. Take time with warm ups and cool downs. Work on mobility around key joints like ankles, hips and shoulders regularly. Adrenals Prolonged elevated cortisol after a workout is problematic if already chronic elevation of cortisol exists. Estrogen regulates the HPA-axis (cortisol/adrenal signaling) function. Less estrogen reduces the ability to regulate stressors. Decreasing exercise, reducing inflammation and taxing of the adrenals, improving sleep, nutrition sufficiency, and identifying ways to reduce negative effects of cortisol with tools that work for you. More Reasons Why You're Not Gaining Muscle After 50 Too Few Calories Or Protein May limit muscle protein synthesis. If you're in a caloric deficit: a moderate deficit (

Starrag provides a full range of manufacturing solutions, utilising its own in-house components as well as specialised tools. The high-quality Starrag machines developed and manufactured in Rorschacherberg, Switzerland, are impressive. However, the machines represent just one facet of a diverse portfolio that encompasses technology, software, clamping concepts, and carbide tools, which are also manufactured in-house and are often vital to success. Starrag's headquarters in Rorschacherberg specialises in creating high-performance machining centres for aircraft and turbine manufacturing. Nonetheless, the company offers a broader range of solutions. Years of accumulated expertise from various projects is evident in the numerous components developed internally: from carbide tools and RCS CAM software for blades to clamping technology, fixture construction, automation solutions, and host computer technologies. “This ‘full package' sets us apart from other suppliers,” says Sofian Regaz, Starrag Sales Manager for Aerospace & Turbine Technology. “We don't see ourselves purely as a machine manufacturer, but as a solution provider for production processes in the aerospace and turbine sector. This ranges from standalone machines to flexible manufacturing systems, which customers can obtain from us as a one-stop shop.” Gaining a competitive edge from tools tailored to the process Sofian Regaz is primarily responsible for product management and sales of Starrag tools. “Here in Rorschacherberg, we have spent many years developing and grinding carbide milling cutters for aircraft and turbine components made from difficult-to-machine materials such as titanium, Inconel or high-alloy steels.” Though Starrag offers a small range of standard tools, over 90% of the company's tools are custom-made products. These tools are tailored to specific machining processes that fully embrace the component, the machine, the material, and other considerations. “It makes a huge difference whether I adapt my NC program to a catalogue milling cutter or design the tool in terms of the cutting edge length, corner radius, flank angle and coating. This enables us to deliver the optimum machining process. Our customers enjoy great success with this,” says Sofian Regaz. Always available to serve customer needs Starrag sells most of its machines as part of a manufacturing solution for a specific component or component family, so the corresponding specialist tools are usually supplied with them. This incorporates an explanation of why the tools are designed in a particular way and the expertise on which they are based. The Product Manager adds: “The customer needs to know how their tools differ from catalogue tools and the impact these differences have. They also need to understand that the advantages of our tools cannot be found with other suppliers.” This expertise is no coincidence. Starrag maintains a very close, partnership-based relationship with its customers and supports them throughout the production process and beyond the warranty period. “This means that if, for example, a component is due to be changed and the machine needs to be set up for a new process, we are still by our customer's side to offer new customised tools as necessary,” assures Regaz. Starrag has a distinct advantage over traditional tool manufacturers. Tools are both developed and ground at the Rorschacherberg plant, which also houses the Aerospace and Turbine Competence Centre (ATCC). The 2,000m2 centre is equipped with all the latest 5-axis machining centres from the Starrag NB, LX, and STC series. Sofian Regaz explains: “We use these machines for a wide range of our own trials and trials for our customers, as well as for developing and optimising processes and, of course, for our analyses and tool tests. We even take on small series production on behalf of customers.” For the tool team, this means they can reproduce the customer's processes 1:1 on original machines and optimise the tools before delivery. Time and again, customers confirm that this saves numerous transport routes and, in turn, a significant amount of time and money. “If corrections to the tool are still necessary, we can react and adopt changes very quickly because we have our own grinding shop,” says Sofian Regaz. “We achieve incredibly quick response times, sometimes just in half a day.” Tool expertise for better machining results The ATCC is an important meeting place where Starrag technologists, machine operators, automation specialists, tool specialists, and customers come together. Starrag offers comprehensive support in programming the machines, managing processes, and optimising subsequent processes. For the tool team, this is a valuable source of expertise. “This is where we find out how the market is evolving, how materials are changing, what the blanks of the future will look like and what requirements components will have to meet. This allows us to get ahead of the game with our tool developments and offer our customers solutions early on.” Starrag is also well-positioned worldwide in tool servicing. Starrag has partnered with Oerlikon Balzers to save customers time and money by providing on-site regrinding and recoating services for Starrag in America and Asia. This is an important factor for Sofian Regaz: “We offer a similar service in-house as well, but customers can save themselves the long journeys from overseas by using our partner offer.” “Customer feedback on our tools is consistently positive,” mentions Sofian Regaz. He received a special confirmation of success from Honeywell Aerospace Ireland, where Starrag had the chance to work as a tool problem solver. The starting basis was that tool wear was very high when machining a titanium turbine blade. No more than ten components could be machined with the existing milling cutter. That's when the engine manufacturer invited important tool manufacturers to get a handle on the problem. The best supplier managed to increase the service life to 20 components. And Starrag? “Our special tools produce 40 components,” reports Sofian Regaz. “Honeywell considered this worthy of not only a contract, but also an award. In June 2024, we were awarded the ‘Kaizen of the Month' prize.” Success leads to growth The tool business has experienced tremendous growth in recent years. This success is not solely due to stories like the Honeywell contract. The expanded product range has also played a significant role in this. While Starrag used to produce only end mills, torus mills, and conical ball nose mills, today the company also grinds cylindrical and barrel ball nose mills, lollipop mills, barrel cutters, and chamfer milling cutters. Additionally, there is a range of high-feed, plunge, and various form milling cutters that can be applied to turbine blade roots. To generate further growth, Starrag will offer special tools for machining aluminium alongside tools for more challenging materials. Sofian Regaz's team is also strengthening its business development: “Our process expertise in aircraft and turbine construction is so extensive that we can also enjoy great success with our tools on third-party machines. And we are already in talks with other Starrag sites. In the future, we want to utilise their machining centres and their expertise to produce special tools for other industries.”
Children are contrasted to a blind beggar while an unnamed rich ruler is contrasted to a rich tax collector. The problem: This man named Zacchaeus, meaning “righteous”, does not measure up to righteousness. Luke affirms this by telling us that the man is short in stature. This is not just height, but even morality or significance.As Jesus approaches Jericho on the way to Jerusalem, he has two significant encounters. Two men encounter Christ. First, there is a blind beggar who cannot see, but perceives that Jesus is not from Nazareth, but he is the Son of David. He is blind, but correctly perceives that Jesus is the promised redeemer king who was covenanted to David in 2 Samuel 7.The other figure is a wealthy tax collector. This man parallels the poor man in the sense that the crowd is a barrier; they tell the tax collector to be silent, but the blind man and the rich tax collector correctly perceive Christ. They perceive that Christ is the messiah, the giver of true life, and the great equalizer. It is not about what one owns, but it is about being identified as a Son of Abraham. That is, one who is in Christ by faith in the power of the Spirit.The stage of this encounter cannot be ignored. The city is identified as Jericho. This is the first city that the Lord put before Israel on their campaign to seize the land in full holy war. They marched around the walls, they entered the city, and carried out the picture of final judgment. They destroyed everything except the one unclean prostitute who followed God over man.When Christ enters this city, we see a different campaign. Jesus is the new Joshua. In fact, Jesus is the Greek or New Testament name for the Hebrew name Joshua. It means Yahweh saves. Israel, the pedagogue, teaches us about final judgment, but also that man will not subdue this creation. The mission is a failed mission that ends in multiple exiles and God's people being pragmatic sellouts rather than victorious warriors. This is the fate of fallen man.There is only one way for the Lord to secure his glorified kingdom. It is in the Son of Man/Son of David who must go to the cross. It is in his people emptying themselves as the true sons of Abraham. The true children of the promise who sojourn by faith, in the power of the Spirit, seeing their identity in the true heavenly vision of peace. The earthly Jerusalem is destroyed, and now we sojourn through this age as suffering pilgrims. Our lives are grounded in Christ, we seek to live a peaceful and quiet life honoring him, and we wait for his return. This is why Christ comes as the suffering son of man and returns as the glorified Son of David.Our call is to journey through this age in the power of the Holy Spirit, who grants us heaven's power, orients us in the true vision of peace (Jerusalem), and grounds us in our savior. Let us empty ourselves of significance in his age and find our significance in our savior. It is truly a joy that he can commune with a sinful people. He does not get contaminated, unlike the priests of old, but he sanctifies his citizens.
Money is more than math—it’s deeply personal. And for many of us, it’s also deeply patterned. In this refreshed replay of a listener favorite, we revisit a conversation that continues to resonate across seasons: understanding your “Money MO.” Your money MO—short for modus operandi—is the natural way you approach money, shaped by your upbringing, personality, and experiences. Whether you're a spender, saver, investor, planner, or giver, your MO shows up around every financial decision you make. In this first part of a two-part series, we unpack the five core Money MOs and why identifying yours (and those around you) can shift the way you manage money—and relationships. In this episode, John discusses: What a “Money MO” is and why it matters Five distinct Money MOs and how they show up in real life The strengths and struggles of each MO How your financial tendencies impact your relationships and your faith journey Key Takeaways: Your Money MO is a deeply rooted pattern that influences how you think about, interact with, and make decisions around money, often without even realizing it. Gaining clarity about your financial tendencies can transform how you communicate and collaborate with others, especially within marriage or close relationships. Each MO carries both strengths and struggles, and recognizing these dynamics allows you to steward your financial behavior with more wisdom, grace, and intention. When surrendered within God’s bigger story, your Money MO becomes more than just a habit—it becomes a tool for spiritual growth, deeper connection, and faithful stewardship. “The goal here is not to make you into the same person, but to be the person you were made to be with your Money MOs, to have them be surrendered into the context of God's larger story.” CLICK ON THE LINKS BELOW FOR MORE MONEY MADE FAITHFUL!

DIRECTOR CUT! WHAT! That was FABULOUS! I don't disagree with you. However– What is it now? A MAN hangs by nothing but seemingly a very tightly buckled pair of restraints, above his head–the source of the object from which he hangs unknown, he appears to almost float, in fact, in quite the sufferable struggle. Holy fuck, guy. You're still up here? The VOICE comes from above but is yet unseen, it appears as though two very tidy clean white tennis shoes appear to be holding the straps of these restraints in place. CONT'D That's amazing.

I'll make you some fucking pants if you just–shut UP! KIMMEL AND I'M HUNGRY. CRAIG FIRST THINGS FIRST! CRAIG FURGUSON assembles some very eclectic pants from the drapery inside the mansion; this of course reveals the windows to be boarded up in a highly distinct bunker-like maximum security prison-ish fashion, but THE HOSTS at the very least now have makeshift pants; which are startlingly fashionable: read: bohemian chic. Why do mine have beads still attached? He pulls the decorative ripchord and his fly opens promptly. Oh. CRAIG FURGUSON For emergencies. He continues pulling it in sequence with the matching lamp; he alternates turning the lights on and off and opening and shutting his pants flap in admiration. CRAIG FURGUSON CONT'D In case you really have to go. (Facinated) Ooh! CRAIG FURGUSON is satisfied with his work.

We're watching you. An ACHINGLY TALL red-headed fellow finds himself in a FIGHT TO THE DEATH, being cast over eons and decades, and cascaded in and our of portals throughout the ever-infinite dimensional portals of unknown realms as his grasp on life itself and reality begins to fade as he crosses in and out of parallels, one galaxy to the next and one lifetime to another, gripping death and darkness in one hand and light and living in the other. In this bloody brawl, scrawling across an expanse of unknown and unknowable times and realms, this mystic remains still yet as infinite and omniscient in himself as the Gods he looks to for mercy, as the journey has been known to become of these very same deities in its context and process. A folding timeline of blood and sacrifice melds itself into the rope of the materiel worlds; not one fabric of time but many twisted and woven fibers into one rope from which he climbs into the ranks of the upperworld–or heaven, then also slipping seemingly sometimes into the depths of the underworld, a Hell known to all man as this, existence not as one but many consumed in the shadow processes of wickedness and torture, war amongst one another, and the well known humanities of pride, faith, justice and wealth. …this is supposed to be Conan? Uhh… “Achingly tall red-head?” yeah I guess. –O'Brien? [beat] He seems capable. Don't pity me, For not I weep of our pride on doorsteps not allowed, But for the grace and hope of fortune in another world i've known But lest forgotten; Do not feign me for my ignorance in desire, For I am not of man, or woman, or grain, or stone But of the world itself and all ire.

JIMMY KIMMEL is pacing relentlessly; he is driving the other hosts up a wall. KIMMEL I'm hungry, I want pants. I'm hungry– I want pants– Jimmy... KIMMEL I'm hungry– Jimmy! KIMMEL I want pants! JIMMY! KIMMEL WHAT! I'M HUNGRY AND I WANT PANTS! Oh, is that when— CRAIG FURGUSON has had enough. CRAIG You want bloody pants! KIMMEL YES! I WANT PANTS! CRAIG You know what! Fine! I'll make you some fucking pants if you just–shut UP! KIMMEL AND I'M HUNGRY. CRAIG FIRST THINGS FIRST! CRAIG FURGUSON assembles some very eclectic pants from the drapery inside the mansion; this of course reveals the windows to be boarded up in a highly distinct bunker-like maximum security prison-ish fashion, but THE HOSTS at the very least now have makeshift pants; which are startlingly fashionable: read: bohemian chic. Why do mine have beads still attached? He pulls the decorative ripchord and his fly opens promptly. Oh. CRAIG FURGUSON For emergencies. He continues pulling it in sequence with the matching lamp; he alternates turning the lights on and off and opening and shutting his pants flap in admiration.

We're watching you. An ACHINGLY TALL red-headed fellow finds himself in a FIGHT TO THE DEATH, being cast over eons and decades, and cascaded in and our of portals throughout the ever-infinite dimensional portals of unknown realms as his grasp on life itself and reality begins to fade as he crosses in and out of parallels, one galaxy to the next and one lifetime to another, gripping death and darkness in one hand and light and living in the other. In this bloody brawl, scrawling across an expanse of unknown and unknowable times and realms, this mystic remains still yet as infinite and omniscient in himself as the Gods he looks to for mercy, as the journey has been known to become of these very same deities in its context and process. A folding timeline of blood and sacrifice melds itself into the rope of the materiel worlds; not one fabric of time but many twisted and woven fibers into one rope from which he climbs into the ranks of the upperworld–or heaven, then also slipping seemingly sometimes into the depths of the underworld, a Hell known to all man as this, existence not as one but many consumed in the shadow processes of wickedness and torture, war amongst one another, and the well known humanities of pride, faith, justice and wealth. …this is supposed to be Conan? Uhh… “Achingly tall red-head?” yeah I guess. –O'Brien? [beat] He seems capable. Don't pity me, For not I weep of our pride on doorsteps not allowed, But for the grace and hope of fortune in another world i've known But lest forgotten; Do not feign me for my ignorance in desire, For I am not of man, or woman, or grain, or stone But of the world itself and all ire. (Don't doubt me.)

Pools of blood, And pools of dust, And fools, and fools, and fools Pools of love, And pools of list And tools and tools, and tools Pools of us, And Pools of hours And palms of pools D'hors Pools of plants, And pools of listen Pools and Pools and Pools Now, for us, what's at stake has come upon us For whether which now or ever ties have made for us to burn; Ne'er mistake there lust for listens and of ponders, Waterfalls of love and feathers, wanders Ties to honor stars and fore of fathers Almost lost it, there, I– Almost gathered, therefore. [ ] So to us who part ties, Of tied knots and of stomach's wrench To nourish shadows as remains her honor, I, depart my once, I, as flocking doves, The twist'of fated never Bare I fear or fonder Where, where, for again (bare tied as to none) and again wakes as has but not in time, to grove– The box I paved and yet, Set aside not as slabs of stone Or ash and fire But there i wake In cedar pine and oak The turn of slumber as the glow of what I once did not know, Now has shined against My eyes as water Luminescence Oh Goddamnit. Peaking pride, the oath Again i wait and ne'er did I come, but forth I woke, and also thought Not one but worlds of color, And there i know, to heart the seas I parted Not shallow or in shallows waking, red as scarlet blood but mauve, and then, the coping stays of which I gathered here has Agape and aching, wet with pride and courage Forefront others As thought to know, I, And I become, as known, now not and. “All White World” Our ENSEMBLE awakens slowly in the void of light; an all white space seemingly endless and drenched in blinding light; slowly awakening as if upon a cloud, and yet, washed in the drenched brightness of an all white world–familiar and together, but also new; The uniformity of all white attire and the simplicity of symmetry–all alike but of many and also one. I promise there's pancakes; I promise there's porridge I primise there's light at the end of the tunnel (the end of the night and beginning of brunch) And yes, I promise a run And a run for the office (not by far) And not unpardoned I promise to pray And I promise to wait And i promise to ache In the acres I've laid Made of all green pastures And days and days Without saying my name Pass us over Now….

Don't you know, though, That nothing goes over his– Over his over– Over his Over his head –no one throws that high! (Not in softball!) ENSEMBLE What an apocalypse! What an apocalypse!

No, There's no knowing the coat From the hotbox, the hoot from the horus, the laugh from the chopsticks, The room full of products Or coatrooms of corpses No, There's no knowing us But out of nowhere The hour comes running upon us, And so The show must go on The show must go on The show must go…. DIRECTOR CUT! WHAT! That was FABULOUS! I don't disagree with you. However– What is it now? A MAN hangs by nothing but seemingly a very tightly buckled pair of restraints, above his head–the source of the object from which he hangs unknown, he appears to almost float, in fact, in quite the sufferable struggle. Holy fuck, guy. You're still up here?

What matters more when it comes to success: perfect timing or making your own luck? Some people wait for the right moment. Others jump in and make things happen. Most of us fall somewhere in the middle. In this episode, we discuss how much timing shapes our lives, and how much depends on our efforts. You'll get real stories and smart insights to help you make sense of both. Joining me are two special guests: Sahar Milani, an Experiential Brand Specialist and host of the Mindful Makers Podcast and Laura Roche, an experienced MC and a voice for mindfulness and self-compassion. Together, we'll look at where action meets timing. When is it best to trust the flow, and when should you cut in and move ahead? By the end, you'll see how both can help you unlock new doors. Tune in for tips you can use, ideas to try, and a few prompts that might spark your own next step.

In this eye-opening episode, Ben Azadi dismantles the myth that sugar is the root cause of obesity. Instead, he uncovers the real villain: cell membrane inflammation. You'll learn the top five hidden drivers of inflammation that are blocking fat loss — including seed oils, chronic stress, snacking, poor sleep, and even negative thinking. Ben also shares a powerful (and free) “supplement” to reduce cortisol instantly, plus a 50x more accurate test you can take at home to detect metabolic damage. If you're doing all the “right things” but still struggling, this episode will shift everything.
Most BigLaw firms offer a broad array of benefits, including to meet important needs for caregiving for children. But there is still a large gap in many firms for lawyers and other professionals when it comes to benefits that assist in meeting broader family needs, including when it comes to caring for parents, adult dependents, spoues and other family members. In this episode, I speak with Thomas Adrian, who leads HR and wellness at Sheppard Mullin, a firm which has adopted one of the most comprehensive programs in BigLaw to address overall family caregiver needs. We talking about how Sheppard Mullin's partnership with HomeThrive helps lawyers and other professional staff to handle real-life carer responsibilities without having to sacrifice their careers.

This week, McKay unpacks the "S-Curve", a powerful concept from the business world, and reveals how its principles are a blueprint for navigating change and achieving lasting growth in our careers, families, and personal lives. By examining the rise and fall of corporate giants like Kodak, Walmart, and Netflix, he illustrates that the path to success isn't a straight line but a series of curves, each requiring a strategic "jump" to avoid stagnation and reach the next level.The episode breaks down the predictable stages of any new venture - a slow start, a period of rapid growth, and an inevitable plateau. McKay uses compelling stories to show why companies like Kodak failed when they clung to their old models, while innovators like Walmart and Netflix thrived by noticing market shifts, leveraging their core strengths, and bravely jumping to a new curve. The discussion provides listeners with three actionable strategies - getting started without the perfect plan, becoming a "first-class noticer," and finding synergies between the old and the new - to successfully navigate their own S-Curves and turn moments of challenge into catalysts for profound growth.Main Themes:Growth in business, careers, and personal life follows a predictable three-stage S-Curve.To avoid stagnation, one must "jump" from a maturing S-Curve to a new one.The strategies that lead to initial success are often not the ones that sustain it.Successful adaptation involves noticing market changes, learning from others, and taking calculated risks.Leverage your existing strengths and assets when pivoting to a new approach.The first step in jumping the curve is to take action, even if imperfectly, and learn from the process.Gaining new perspectives is essential for identifying when and how to change course.The principles of the S-Curve apply equally to corporate strategy, parenting, personal health, and career development.Top 10 Quotes:"Often in life, the things you used to be successful at last only up to a certain point.""What got you here is not going to get you where you need to go.""The market changes, interest rates move, social causes evolve, our children and what is popular changes.""The best leaders, the best business leaders are first-class noticers.""Rather than abandon its way of doing business, Walmart found ways to leverage what was good about their business model.""You have to be more strategic about spending family time.""So lesson number one is to get moving. Start trying a new approach.""You'll find greater happiness and prosperity waiting when you jump the S-Curve in what you do."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen
You're doing everything right — attending duroos, watching Islamic videos, filling pages with notes. But deep down… you're not changing. The more you learn, the more disconnected you feel. You thought seeking knowledge would soften your heart. But it's only making your head heavier. You're probably moving fast, but not forward. Why? Because somewhere along the way, we skipped what the Salaf never did. Study the explanation of Kitab al-ʿIlm by Imam Abu Khaythamah Zuhayr ibn Harb (d. 234 AH) — the teacher of five out of the six major hadith collectors. This book gathers over 160 narrations from the Prophet ﷺ, the Companions رضي الله عنهم, and the early scholars — not on fiqh or fatwa, but on how to seek knowledge the right way. It exposes the cracks in our foundations: - Learning without action - Studying without adab - Gaining facts but losing sincerity - Consuming lectures without any transformation If you've been chasing course after course, quoting scholars but ignoring your own tarbiyah — this is your reset.
