SummaryWelcome to another inspiring episode of The Metabolism, Muscles, & Mindset Podcast with Ali Novitsky, MD, a board-certified obesity medicine physician and renowned fitness expert. In this episode, Dr. Novitsky explores the intricate relationship between energy and physical health —and why honoring your unique energy baseline is the key to sustainable wellness.Dr. Novitsky distinguishes between vibrational energy (influenced by thoughts and emotions) and natural energy (your innate rhythm). By understanding and respecting your baseline — whether it's calm and reflective or vibrant and fast-paced — you can unlock powerful strategies for physical consistency and vitality. From hormones and sleep to nutrition and exercise, Dr. Novitsky dives deep into how your physical health either thrives or struggles based on your energy regulation.She also introduces practical, science-backed tools for managing stress, creating nutrition strategies that work with your emotional bandwidth, and building an exercise routine that fosters longevity and vitality. Whether you identify as a low-energy “quiet strength” or a high-energy go-getter, this episode equips you to move in harmony with your body's needs and create sustainable results without burnout.Key Points• Understanding Energy Types: Vibrational energy comes from thoughts and feelings; natural energy is your body's default rhythm. Honoring your baseline unlocks consistent physical health.• Hormonal Impact: Elevated cortisol and ghrelin due to stress can drain your energy, affect sleep, increase hunger, and hinder fat loss.• The Power of Rest: Sleep isn't optional — it's foundational. Chronic deprivation leads to insulin resistance, emotional dysregulation, and GI issues.• Emotional Regulation = Physical Wellness: A clean emotional “house” helps manage stress and sets the stage for long-term physical commitment.• Mindful Nutrition Tools: Dr. Novitsky highlights intuitive eating, Mindful Macros®, and calculated macros, offering flexible frameworks for optimizing energy without emotional burnout.• Exercise for Longevity: Finding your “baseline minimum” in movement, not extremes, leads to sustained energy, strength, and vitality.Timestamps• 00:02 – Introduction to energy types: vibrational vs. natural energy• 02:15 – Why honoring your personal energy rhythm supports physical health• 04:29 – Rebalancing after energy overuse: Dr. Novitsky's post-conference crash• 06:46 – Cortisol, insulin, and ghrelin: how stress hormones zap your energy• 09:03 – Hunger, fatigue, and frustration: the hormonal cycle affecting fat loss• 11:13 – The underestimated role of sleep in energy and health• 13:25 – Emotional eating, guilt, and energy collapse• 15:48 – Keeping a “clean emotional house” as a path to regulation• 18:11 – Boundaries and toxic energy: how to protect your physical wellness• 20:13 – Nutrition strategies: macros, mindset, and intuitive tools• 22:34 – Protein, sugar, fiber, and alcohol: their energetic consequences• 24:57 – Being “snobby with extras” for balance and joy• 27:16 – Sustainable exercise: finding your sweet spot for movement• 29:35 – Final reflections: choose your focus area and build consistencyFollow Dr. Ali Novitsky on Socials⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠Work with Dr. Ali• Beginner Strength Training Program – 12 months for only $199! ⁠⁠⁠⁠Enroll TODAY⁠⁠⁠⁠• Transform® 9.0 – Enrollment now open!

How to Protect Your Power & ThriveSummaryIn this episode of Metabolism, Muscles, and Mindset, Dr. Ali Novitsky dives deep into one of the most essential skills for high-achieving women: energy conservation. Not just physical stamina—but the emotional and mental energy we often give away without realizing it.Dr. Novitsky shares how identifying your energy builders and drainers—from thoughts and behaviors to people and roles—can transform your well-being. She explains how control, overwhelm, and scarcity are common drains, and how awareness, boundaries, and neutrality can powerfully restore your energy.Listeners will explore how different roles (mother, doctor, partner, coach) impact energy differently, and how even positive habits can drain us if not balanced. Through practical mindset shifts like “and” and “yet” statements, Dr. Novitsky offers a framework to move from burnout to balance.She also discusses natural energy levels, the emotional triggers that drain us most (like restlessness and comparison), and how to work with your physical needs instead of pushing through exhaustion. This episode is full of real-life examples and tangible strategies to help you show up stronger—for yourself and others.Key Points• Energy Builders vs. Drainers: Awareness is key—what fills your cup and what quietly empties it?• Letting Go of Control: Many drainers are rooted in control and fear. Release equals relief.• The Roles We Play: Your energy response varies by role—mother vs. leader vs. partner. Identify the difference.• Neutrality is Power: Use simple “and” or “yet” thoughts to neutralize overwhelm and emotional charge.• Scarcity vs. Abundance: Scarcity is an energy thief. Abundance and staying in your own lane restore clarity.• Emotional Awareness: Feelings like restlessness and comparison link to old wounds—recognizing them is the first step to reclaiming power.• Natural Energy Levels: Know your baseline. Certain environments or people may require you to flex up or down, impacting energy.• Physical Needs Matter: Sometimes honoring your body's request (yes, even for ice cream!) is the most energy-conserving choice you can make.Timestamps• 00:02 – Defining energy conservation and mindset• 01:30 – The builder/drainer inventory• 02:20 – Role-based energy: different hats, different outputs• 04:45 – The cost of control• 06:00 – Thought reframes that conserve energy• 07:11 – Letting go of emotional responsibility in parenting & partnership• 09:30 – Scarcity, fear, and comparison as major energy drains• 11:50 – The “and” & “yet” tool for neutralizing emotional spikes• 13:30 – Fat loss, mindset, and emotionally neutral thoughts• 15:00 – Emotional triggers: restlessness, food, and history• 18:50 – Understanding and respecting natural energy levels• 21:30 – Creating energetic boundaries• 22:45 – Physical energy: rest, nutrition, and honoring cravings• 24:00 – The “why” behind conservation: alignment, growth, and joyReflection PromptAsk yourself:• What's one thing (a thought, role, or habit) you want to release because it drains you?• What's one energy builder you're ready to commit to right now?Follow Dr. Ali Novitsky on Socials⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠• ⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠• ⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠• ⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠Work with Dr. Ali• Beginner Strength Training Program – 12 months for only $199! ⁠⁠⁠Enroll TODAY⁠⁠⁠• Transform® 9.0 – Enrollment now open!

SummaryIn this episode, of Metabolism, Muscles, and Mindset, Dr. Novitsky dives into one of her favorite topics as an obesity medicine doc and fitness enthusiast: the transformative link between exercise and energy. Listeners will gain insight into the bidirectional relationship between emotional and physical energy, the hormonal impacts of movement—including insulin sensitivity and cortisol regulation—and how exercise improves emotional regulation and stress resilience. She also touches on the importance of role models, confidence, and community, particularly for women, and how embodying strength becomes a purpose-driven, high-energy experience.She challenges the all-too-common belief that we're “too tired to exercise" and explores how breaking through that initial mental hurdle can unlock powerful benefits across physical, mental, and emotional energy systems.Exercise generates ATP, the body's basic energy currency, ramps up feel-good endorphins, and Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) - enhancing mood, cognition, and memory. Consistency in movement builds stamina and lowers the energy cost of exercise over time, making it easier and more enjoyable to stay active.Dr. Novitsky encourages everyone to find their “baseline minimum”—the small, sustainable commitment to movement that keeps energy and confidence high, without burnout.Key Points• Breaking the Mindset Barrier: Exercise can feel tiring before it's energizing—but getting started is the key to unlocking its benefits.• Energy on All Levels: Movement elevates physical, emotional, and mental energy by producing ATP, endorphins, and BDNF.• Stamina Through Consistency: The more conditioned you are, the less energy it takes to move—and the more mental energy you free up.• Sleep & Timing: Exercise can improve sleep quality, depending on timing and intensity. Emotional regulation through movement sets the stage for restful nights.• Hormone Harmony: Strength training boosts insulin sensitivity and regulates key hormones like cortisol, leptin, and ghrelin for steady energy.• Emotional Regulation: Exercise fosters better thoughts by creating a calm, grounded state—reducing spirals and buffering behaviors.• Confidence & Purpose: Strength training enhances confidence, especially for women, and becomes a powerful tool for embodying purpose.• The Power of Community: Supportive environments elevate both energy and belief in what our bodies can achieve.Timestamps• 00:02 – The exercise-energy paradox: feeling too tired to move• 01:35 – How ATP and endorphins fuel physical and emotional energy• 02:20 – Why morning workouts set the tone for your day• 03:30 – BDNF and mental clarity: your brain's “topsoil”• 04:45 – The interconnected nature of physical, emotional, and mental energy• 06:00 – Exercise timing and its effect on sleep and emotional regulation• 07:11 – Bringing a “vacation mindset” to everyday life• 08:10 – Building stamina: why conditioning makes movement easier• 09:30 – Mental energy saved through physical conditioning• 10:45 – Emotional regulation through movement: less stress, better thoughts• 11:50 – Exercise, insulin sensitivity, and avoiding post-meal energy crashes• 13:30 – Hormonal impacts: cortisol, leptin, and ghrelin• 14:15 – Strength as confidence: how exercise becomes empowerment• 15:45 – Role models and community: elevating female strength• 16:30 – Finding your baseline minimum: the smallest step for maximum energyFollow Dr. Ali Novitsky on Socials⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠• ⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠• ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠• ⁠⁠YouTube⁠Work with Dr. Ali• Beginner Strength Training Program – 12 months for only $199! ⁠⁠Enroll TODAY⁠⁠• Transform® 9.0 – Enrollment now open!

Chronic stress disrupts the gut microbiome by altering the HPA axis and increasing inflammation, leading to dysbiosis and reduced beneficial bacteria like Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium. In this episode, we discuss how to mitigate these effects and restore gut health through a multifaceted approach. Key Strategies: Regulate Stress & Lower Cortisol: Practices like mindful breathing and HRV training Adaptogens (Ashwagandha, Rhodiola) Morning sun exposure to stabilize cortisol Support Gut Integrity & Reduce Inflammation: L-Glutamine and colostrum for gut repair Bone broth and butyrate to heal the gut lining Rebuild Beneficial Bacteria: Probiotics: Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and Bifidobacterium longum Prebiotics: Resistant starch, polyphenols, and fermented foods Support Vagus Nerve Function: Cold exposure and low-intensity exercise to balance the nervous system Improve Sleep: Supplements like Magnesium Glycinate and L-Theanine to support relaxation and reduce cortisol spikes By following these strategies, you can restore microbial balance, reduce inflammation, and enhance resilience to stress. Why Work with a FDN Practitioner? When addressing stress-induced dysbiosis, it's crucial to test, not guess. Working with a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDNP) allows you to personalize your protocol through functional lab testing. This approach eliminates the cycle of trial and error, providing precise insights into your unique health needs. A personalized, evidence-based plan can help you achieve optimal results and sustainable health outcomes.

SummaryIn this engaging episode of the Metabolism, Muscles, & Mindset Podcast, Dr. Ali Novitsky, a board-certified obesity medicine expert and muscle optimization specialist, explores the concept of energy blockages and the process of releasing them.Dr. Novitsky explains that an energy blockage manifests as physical discomfort, emotional stagnation, and repetitive negative thought patterns that hinder one's ability to move forward.Through a series of tangible examples — from a lingering Verizon box in the dining room to a cluttered fridge and even the ambiance of an infrared sauna — she illustrates how everyday circumstances can block our natural energy.Emphasizing that releasing these blockages is an ongoing journey, Dr, Ali provides actionable strategies that range from simple physical reorganization to deeper emotional regulation and cognitive reframing. Listeners are encouraged to recognize when energy is stuck, to release it with intention, and to foster a growth mindset that leads to enhanced well-being.Key Points• Defining Energy Blockages: Energy blockages occur when physical clutter, unresolved emotions, or negative thought patterns impede the free flow of energy.• Physical Examples: Tangible blockages, such as an unwanted box or a messy environment (e.g., cluttered fridge), can create a sense of stagnation and restlessness.• Emotional Awareness: Negative emotions like disappointment, anxiety, or frustration often signal that energy is being trapped; releasing these may involve forgiveness and setting healthy emotional boundaries.• Mental Shifts: Overcoming repetitive thought spirals by adopting a growth mindset helps to clear mental blockages and supports emotional regulation.• Actionable Strategies: Simple actions — like cleaning up clutter, reorganizing physical spaces, or reframing negative thoughts — can effectively release energy blockages, freeing up energy for new pursuits.• The Journey of Release: Recognizing and releasing blockages is a continual process that evolves over time; small shifts in thought and behavior can accumulate to create lasting positive change.Timestamps• 00:02 – Defining an energy blockage and how it manifests as physical discomfort and repetitive thought patterns.• 02:23 – Recognizing energy blockages• 04:38 – An example of a physical energy block & how even simple clutter can affect energy flow.• 06:41 – The infrared sauna as a regulating tool and creating an environment that supports energy release.• 09:03 – The messy fridge is highlighted as another example of a physical energy blockage hindering healthy eating habits and overall well-being.• 11:27 – Emotional blockages, negative feelings and unresolved relationships contributing to energy stagnation.• 13:51 – Repetitive thought patterns and fixed mindsets prevent emotional regulation and maintain energy blockages.• 16:10 – Slowing down thought spirals and cultivating a more balanced, growth-oriented mindset.• 18:17 – The need for emotional regulation to counteract thought distortions, thereby facilitating the release of mental blockages.• 20:38 – Practicing the release of energy blockages—whether physical, emotional, or mental—is key to living a more joyful and resilient life.Follow Dr. Ali Novitsky on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to the Muscles and Mindset Podcast on ⁠Spotify⁠ | ⁠Apple Podcasts⁠Work with Dr. Ali• Beginner Strength Training Program – 12 months for only $199! ⁠Enroll TODAY⁠• Transform® 9.0 – Enrollment is now open!

SummaryWelcome to another installment of the Energy For Optimal Health Series with Ali Novitsky MD, a board-certified obesity medicine physician and fitness expert. In this episode, Dr. Novitsky reveals the vital link between your natural energy level and the thought patterns that can either amplify or drain you. She highlights that we each have a distinct “zone of genius”—a sweet spot where creativity, clarity, and problem-solving flourish. By tapping into this innate zone, you can unearth powerful insights about your deepest desires and shed limiting beliefs.Dr. Novitsky explains how the process begins with feeling your unique energy state—be it calm and measured or lively and high-intensity. Then, through visualization, you can spark authentic goals that align with your core values, rather than forcing ideas that don't truly resonate. This gentle self-awareness practice embraces simplicity—sometimes the most transformative thoughts are the simplest. You'll learn to see which thoughts belong to you versus external “noise,” fostering true self-trust and the freedom to make decisions that serve you best.Key Points• Natural Energy & Zone of Genius: Identifying your personal energy level enables you to create thoughts and actions that feel effortless and authentic.• From Body to Mind: When you begin with your natural energy (rather than external cues or willpower), you can generate powerful, creative thoughts that align with who you are.• Unlearning Limiting Beliefs: Recognizing what you must “unlearn” allows you to break free from others' expectations and cultivate true self-trust and freedom.• Practical Visualization: Envisioning a calming or inspiring scene helps you tap into your core desires, clarify your goals, and reduce mental clutter.• Sustaining Authenticity: Owning your natural energy and its accompanying insights helps you build resilience and tune out unhelpful external noise.Timestamps• 00:02 – Introduction to “Energy & the Mind” and discovering your natural energy level• 02:16 – How embracing your authentic energy fosters creativity and self-discovery• 04:29 – Visualizing your zone of genius: turning mental images into actionable thoughts• 06:53 – Why regulation of stress and channeling your real energy sparks powerful ideas• 08:59 – Practical exercise: pausing to let intuitive thoughts and visuals surface• 10:16 – Linking imagery to beliefs: recognizing and reframing the stories you tell yourself• 11:55 – Identifying what you must “unlearn” to achieve the life you truly want• 14:18 – Core desires revealed: uncovering deeper motivations like freedom and self-trust• 16:25 – Overcoming self-doubt and considering what others think—finding your own path• 18:22 – Why over-reliance on willpower can lead to burnout and stifle authentic growth• 20:41 – Maintaining clarity: separating “your thoughts” from external noise and influences• 22:41 – Embracing your innate intelligence: leaning on bodily cues, not just mental logic• 24:34 – The payoff of alignment: how authenticity supercharges creativity and problem-solving• 27:00 – Deciphering emotional signals: how to spot when you're leaving your natural energy• 29:19 – Final reflections: implementing these techniques daily for lasting transformationFollow Dr. Ali Novitsky on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to the Muscles and Mindset Podcast on Spotify | Apple PodcastsWork with Dr. Ali• Beginner Strength Training Program – 12 months for only $199! Enroll TODAY• Transform® 9.0 – Enrollment is now open!

Summary:In this episode, Ali Novitsky MD, a board-certified obesity medicine physician and fitness expert, takes a deep dive into the powerful relationship between nutrition, energy, and overall well-being. She emphasizes that nutrition isn't just about the physical foods we consume, but also how it intersects with our mental and emotional health. Drawing from her expertise, Dr. Novitsky explores how nutrition can impact mental clarity, emotional resilience, and physical strength. She shares practical advice on how to reduce “food noise” through mindful eating and making choices that nourish both the body and mind.Throughout the episode, Dr. Novitsky discusses the addictive nature of certain foods, particularly highly processed items, and how they can interfere with our energy and well-being. She stresses the importance of becoming aware of the mental and emotional connections we have to food, while also recognizing how the physical aspect of nutrition—like hydration and balanced meals—affects our energy levels. With a holistic approach, Dr. Novitsky offers actionable tips for optimizing energy and fostering a healthier relationship with food.This episode provides listeners with the tools to align their nutrition with their mental, emotional, and physical needs.

This final episode in our series is with the amazing Jennifer Woodward, an expert in women's hormones and how diet can affect them. In this interview, we focus on mental health and hormonal health as women enter perimenopause and menopause. As we have discussed in the series so far, many women are thrust into perimenopause quite suddenly and may not realize what is happening, so they spend a lot of time at the doctor weeding through their symptom list. This very important episode drills down into the mental aspect of this under appreciated time period in a woman's life.
