Perimenopause—who knew this was even a thing? Not me! I always thought menopause was something that just suddenly happened when you hit a certain age, but perimenopause? That's a whole different beast, and I'm right in the thick of it. It's like this sneaky, slow-motion transition where your body starts doing things you never expected, and you're left wondering what the hell is going on.I've been navigating it as best as I can, but let me tell you, it hasn't been easy. There are days when I feel like I'm losing my mind—literally. The brain fog, the mood swings, the physical changes—it's all so intense. It's like my body is rewriting the rulebook, and I didn't get the memo. I've been sharing these frustrations openly on Instagram because, honestly, I had no idea this was even a thing, and I know I'm not alone. If I can shine a light on what perimenopause really looks like, maybe it'll help someone else feel a little less lost.Thankfully, I've called in the big guns—Dr. Kirstey Holland. She's been an absolute game-changer, helping me get my gut, brain, and hormones back to some kind of new normal.

This week we are talking with Dr. Steven Geanopulos. Dr. G is a renowned Board Certified Chiropractic Neurologist dedicated to holistic health. He is one of America's leading experts in lifelong, optimized living. In today's conversation we are going to discuss the benefits of strength training and the importance of having a proper physical movement assessment. The vast majority of people overestimate their physical capabilities and are unaware of important structural imbalances hence why having a professional movement assessment is paramount to designing the proper fitness plan.  Today's conversation is the final part of the Live 100 series with Dr G. In my prior two conversations with Dr G, we discussed the importance of VO2 max testing, body composition and blood work and today, strength training and physical movement assessment. When combined, these 5 pillars are without a doubt, the most effective and powerful methods for improving, and maintaining health. Our Live 100 program kicks off in the Fall of 2024 and encompasses these 5 pillars, with the mission of improving how long and how well clients live their life. Instagram: @drstevengWeb: drsteveng.comThe Co-Movement Gym Podcast is supported by Lombardi Chiropractic, Native Path Supplements, and A Dog's Day Out Doggie Daycare..

This week we are talking with Dr. Steven Geanopulos.  Dr. G is a renowned Board Certified Chiropractic Neurologist dedicated to holistic health. He is one of America's leading experts in lifelong, optimized living. In today's conversation we are going to discuss two important health topics, body composition and blood work. When people think of body composition the focus is almost always on body weight. While body weight is important there are numerous other factors at play that provide a true insight into health and tracking progress long term.  Bloodwork gives practitioners an in-depth look at how your body is functioning internally. These numbers provide insight and the ability to correctly prescribe nutrition protocols, supplements and lifestyle recommendations, all with the intent to  maximize health.    In my prior conversation with Dr G we discussed the importance of VO2 max testing, today our discussion will be focused on body composition and blood work and our next conversation will be on strength and physical movement assessment. When combined, these 5 pillars are without a doubt the most effective and powerful method to improving, and maintaining health. Instagram: @drstevengWeb: drsteveng.comThe Co-Movement Gym Podcast is supported by Lombardi Chiropractic, Native Path Supplements, and A Dog's Day Out Doggie Daycare..

Welcome to the Co-Movement Gym Podcast! This week we are talking with Tommy Wheatley and Luke Kidwell. Raw Milk & Deadlifts was founded by lifelong friends Tommy Wheatley and Luke Kidwell. Growing up with no experience (or interest) in farming, their journey began in the gym during high-school. What started as a typical goal to gain a bit of muscle slowly turned into a passion for healthy eating, intentional living and an overall desire to know more about the food system. This ultimately led them into homesteading, and in 2020 they started Raw Milk & Deadlifts as a way to educate about fitness, real foods and blend their passions for old school strength training, traditional farming, and faith.
