In this solo episode, I'm answering all the juicy questions you sent in—and I'm not holding back.We're talking sore muscles, toe yoga (yes, really), my real-life workout split, how I handle cardio, and what to do when your period disappears but you still want to build muscle. No fluff. Just real talk.I'm also breaking down overtraining symptoms that most people ignore, how I approach strength training in my 30s (and why I'm not chasing PRs right now), tips for getting in more protein without gagging on dry-ass chicken, the truth about body recomposition and irregular cycles, and why I give a shit about ankle mobility and barefoot shoes.Whether you're trying to lift heavier, feel better in your body, or just not feel wrecked after every workout, this one's packed with reminders, mindset shifts, and practical stuff you can try this week.Because training should support your life, not drain the hell out of you.Let's get into it.I Also Discuss:(00:01) Q&A Kickoff: Overtraining, Progress Plateaus & Real Talk(09:57) Muscle Gains, Protein Tips & Why You Might Feel Nauseous Lifting(13:35) Body Recomp 101: Can You Lose Fat & Gain Muscle at the Same Time?(19:59) Foot Health Is Sexy: Toe Yoga, Ankle Mobility & Why It Matters(27:43) Community, Confidence & Taking Up Space TogetherThank You to Our Sponsors:Broads 1:1 – Ready to ditch the bullshit and start feeling good in your body?

In this episode, hosts Paul Warloski, Dr. Paul Laursen, and Marjaana Rakai welcome Dr. Phil Maffetone—renowned clinician and pioneer of holistic endurance training. They explore the dangers of being “fit but unhealthy,” chronic overtraining, and the societal pressure to do more. Marjaana shares her personal crash and comeback story, illustrating how a high-performance mindset without balance led to physical and emotional burnout. Dr. Maffetone introduces the MAF Method, emphasizing low-intensity aerobic training, recovery, nutrition, and biofeedback tools to reclaim health and elevate performance. It's a call to rethink endurance culture, starting from the brain down.Key Takeaways:Fitness can come at the expense of health if training is unbalanced.The “no pain, no gain” mindset is deeply ingrained—but often harmful.Many endurance athletes are unknowingly overtrained and overstressed.Recovery, nutrition, and nervous system balance are essential components of athletic progress.The MAF (Maximum Aerobic Function) method helps athletes build a strong aerobic base for long-term performance.Tools like heart rate monitoring and heart rate variability can give essential feedback.Social pressure and misinformation from media and food industries contribute to poor health choices.Small, consistent changes—especially in food and pace—can yield major long-term benefits.How HIIT Helps and Hurts - Dr. Phil MaffetonePaul Warloski - Endurance, Strength Training, YogaMarjaana Rakai - Tired Mom Runs - Where fitness meets motherhood.

Today we're tackling one of the most common and sneaky traps in fitness: overtraining. It's a buzzword you've probably heard, but do you actually know what it is, why it happens, and how to fix it?If you've been grinding hard in the gym but feeling like you're spinning your wheels — low energy, stalled progress, random aches, irritability, maybe even getting sick more often — you might be pushing past the point of progress and into the danger zone of overtraining.But here's the good news: overtraining isn't a dead-end. It's a yellow flag — and today, I'm giving you the exact playbook to recognize it, reverse it, and come back stronger.Let's dive in.Resources:Brain.fm App(First month Free, then 20% off subscription)Discount Code: coachdamiensdCaldera Lab Skin Carewww.calderalab.comDiscount Code: CoachDLinks:IG:@coachdamien_sd@damienrayevans@livinthedream_podcast YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCS6VuPgtVsdBpDj5oN3YQTgFB:https://www.facebook.com/coachdamienSD/

In Part 2 of this powerful conversation, we continue the journey beyond quitting Adderall to unlocking true high performance through deep physiological awareness. I sit down with Carlos and Miguel Bertonatti to unpack the essential metrics of health—VO₂ max, HRV, and body composition—and how mastering these can transform the way you recover, perform, and live.We explore why most high performers are stuck in chronic stress without realizing it, how proper sleep can become your greatest biohack, and how breathwork is the secret weapon to regulate your nervous system anytime, anywhere. This episode dives into the science of stress adaptation, the role of muscle as the "organ of longevity," and simple, actionable strategies to regain control over your biology.If you're serious about optimizing your mind, body, and performance without gimmicks—this is your roadmap. Tune in to learn how real resilience is built from the inside out.

most women are stuck in a cycle of overtraining and under-eating—and still not seeing results. this episode breaks down the truth about why that's happening.in this episode, we go straight into the real reason most women are stuck spinning their wheels. if you've been training 5–7 days a week, living on 1600 calories, and still not seeing results—you're not alone. and no, it's not your hormones. it's the hole you've dieted yourself into.betty's story is one we see far too often: starting with good intentions, chasing calorie burn, training nonstop, obsessing over the scale—and ending up exhausted, bloated, bingeing on the weekends, and blaming her body. she thought she was doing everything right. until she realized nothing was working.this isn't a weight loss episode. it's a wake-up call.you'll learn:why training more and eating less is not the path to getting leanthe hidden signs that you're under-recovering and over-stressing your systemhow maintenance (not deficit) changed her body more than any diet ever didthe mental trap of chasing control and punishing yourself with food and trainingwhat “doing everything right” really means—and how to spot when you're notthis episode will challenge everything you've been taught about fat loss, metabolism, and what it takes to build a strong, defined body. it'll call out the glamorization of grind culture, the fear of food, and the myth that your worth is tied to shrinking yourself.if you're ready to stop burning yourself into the ground—and start building a body (and life) that actually feels good—this is your episode.share this episode with a friend who needs to hear it. follow me on instagram and shoot me a message if this resonated #womensfitness #fatlosswithoutburnout #musclebuildingforwomen #overtrainingrecovery #undereatingtruth #maintenancephase #strongwomen #dietrecovery

Send us a text#329 - Remember the phrase "Go Big or Go Home?" Yeah, I got tired of it too. Unfortunately, I still hear it and see runners suggesting that they're not doing enough. Well, first of all, who are they to judge another runner and second, anyone who says that to another runner usually is trying to sell something, be it a book, personal training, running coach services or something else. With all we do, finding time to run is going big. We're not fulltime runners, so to make time out of our busy days to run or a herculean effort. And what happens if we put everything into going "big"? I go over that too. Overtraining has a lot of undesirable effects. I find it interesting that those are never covered by the Go Big crowd.

Today's episode is inspired by a question I got from a member of the Movement with Julie community. And I love this question because I know so many of you have probably wondered the exact same thing—especially if you're newer to strength training. Someone asked me whether they should increase weight or reps because they don't always feel sore after working out. Such a good question—and we're breaking it all down today. Because there's a really common belief out there that if you're not sore after your workout, it didn't work. But here's the truth: Soreness does not equal success.   What I discuss: 1. Soreness is Triggered by Novelty, Not Necessarily Effectiveness 2. Soreness Reflects Inflammation, Not Muscle Growth 3. Being Sore Doesn't Mean You're Targeting the Right Muscle Effectively 4. The Body Adapts Quickly (And That's a Good Thing!) 5. Chasing Soreness Can Lead to Overtraining, Not Progress 6. The Importance of Progressive Overload   Also, don't forget to listen to:    Episode 13: How Much Weight Should I be Lifting? https://www.juliealedbetter.com/embrace-your-real/how-much-weight-should-i-be-lifting    And episode 68: Getting Off Your Fitness Plateau with Progressive Overload https://www.juliealedbetter.com/embrace-your-real/getting-off-your-fitness-plateau-with-progressive-overload    If you want more from me, be sure to check out...

Podcast: Toe the Rubber May 1, 2025 Return to Synchronicity McClintock and Jung Barbara McClintock: American scientist and pioneering cytogeneticist who made groundbreaking discoveries in genetics. She is best known for discovering "jumping genes" or transposable elements— segments of DNA that can move within a genome. Her work showed that genes are not fixed in place and can regulate each other, which was revolutionary at the time. "If you know you are on the right track, if you have this inner knowledge, then nobody can turn you off... no matter what they say.” "There's no such thing as a central dogma into which everything will fit. Life is too complicated for that.” Carl Jung: “Synchronicity is an ever-present reality for those who have eyes to see.” “The connecting principle appears to reside in the dynamics of the collective unconscious.” Current trend in Gadgets: A short list of physical products: Cross Symmetry bands/tubing Jaeger bands Towell drills - derivatives Weighted baseballs Baseball Derivatives of the pitch grips and different pitches Long Toss A list of technology products (arm or pitch centric): 1.

Proximal-to-Distal Sequencing in Pitching: A Coaching Manual for Youth Development Understanding the Proximal-to-Distal Movement Pattern In pitching, the proximal-to-distal movement pattern refers to the sequential activation and movement of body segments, starting from the body's center (proximal segments) and progressing outward to the extremities (distal segments). This sequence is crucial for generating maximum velocity and reducing injury risk. The kinetic chain in pitching typically follows this order: pelvis → trunk → shoulder → arm → forearm → hand. Each segment builds upon the momentum of the previous one, culminating in efficient energy transfer to the baseball. (Biomechanics Research Aims to Improve Sports Performance, The Association of Baseball Pitch Delivery and Kinematic Sequence ...) Sequencing Order and Its Importance The ideal pitching sequence involves: (Kinematic Sequence Important for Preventing Baseball Injuries) 1. Pelvis Rotation: Initiates the kinetic chain, generating rotational energy. 2. Trunk Rotation: Transfers energy from the pelvis to the upper body. 3. Shoulder Rotation: Continues the energy transfer, positioning the arm. 4. Arm Acceleration: Propels the forearm and hand forward. 5. Forearm and Hand Movement: Final acceleration and release of the ball. (Sport Specialization and Overuse Injuries in Adolescent Throwing ..., Comparison of Kinematic Sequences During Curveball and Fastball ...) Proper sequencing ensures that each segment reaches its peak velocity at the right time, optimizing performance and minimizing stress on the body. (Biomechanics Research Aims to Improve Sports Performance) Negative Effects of Overtraining Distal Segments Focusing excessively on training distal segments (arm, forearm, hand) can disrupt the natural kinetic chain, leading to: • Increased Injury Risk: Overemphasis on the arm can cause imbalances and place undue stress on joints and muscles, increasing the likelihood of injuries such as UCL tears. • Neuromuscular Fatigue: Isolated training of distal segments can lead to fatigue and decreased performance due to the lack of support from proximal muscles. • Inefficient Mechanics: Neglecting the development of proximal segments can result in compensatory movements, reducing overall pitching efficiency. Disruption of Motor Engram Sequencing Motor engrams are neural patterns that encode specific movements. Overtraining distal movements can: • Alter Motor Patterns: Focusing on arm path alone can lead to the development of faulty movement patterns, disrupting the natural sequencing of the kinetic chain. • Impair Skill Acquisition: Neglecting full-body mechanics hampers the integration of complex movements, making it harder for pitchers to learn and refine their delivery. • Reduce Adaptability: Ingrained improper patterns limit a pitcher's ability to adjust mechanics in response to game situations or coaching feedback. Age-Specific Considerations Ages 10–12: • Focus: Developing general athleticism and introducing basic pitching mechanics. • Training Emphasis: Body awareness, balance, and coordination exercises. • Avoid: Specialized pitching drills that isolate arm movements. Ages 13–15: • Focus: Refining mechanics and building strength. • Training Emphasis: Core stability, lower body strength, and integrated movement patterns. • Monitor: Growth spurts that may affect coordination and mechanics. Ages 16–18: • Focus: Enhancing performance and preparing for higher-level competition. • Training Emphasis: Advanced strength training, power development, and fine-tuning mechanics. • Caution: Avoid overuse and ensure adequate recovery to prevent injuries. Conclusion A comprehensive understanding of proximal-to-distal sequencing is essential for developing efficient and safe pitching mechanics. Coaches should prioritize full-body training approaches that emphasize the integration of all body segments, ensuring young pitchers build a solid foundation for long-term success.

Today, we're going to talk about the best supplements to build muscle fast! Don't bother taking single amino acids for muscle growth! Double-blinded studies have shown this isn't an effective way to build muscle or increase muscle growth. Amino acids can also turn into sugar, which can increase your blood sugar.Avoid tribulus and fenugreek if you are building muscle. These compounds can increase testosterone, but not enough to build muscle.As we age, testosterone decreases and cortisol increases. This combination can hinder muscle building. Overtraining can also significantly increase cortisol and shut down testosterone. Cholesterol is vital for essential hormones like testosterone, so avoid low-cholesterol and low-fat diets if you want to build muscle. Insulin resistance can hinder muscle growth. Insulin resistance is often caused by frequent eating and high-carbohydrate diets. Sleep is vital for muscle building because most muscle growth occurs while sleeping! Magnesium glycinate can help you sleep and also helps make energy to feed your muscles.Try these top 3 muscle-building supplements to boost muscle growth and increase muscle size.1. Creatine monohydrateCreatine is found naturally in red meat. It increases ATP, performance, energy during workouts, and hydration, and directly increases muscle stimulus. 2. Whey proteinWhey protein powder provides leucine, which stimulates muscle growth. It also contains the other amino acids vital for muscle building. 3. ZincZinc helps increase testosterone, and even a mild zinc deficiency can decrease testosterone production. Testosterone is vital for building muscle size and strength. If you want to build muscle, consume grass-fed red meat. It contains creatine, amino acids, zinc, vitamin B12, and carnosine. It also contains healthy fat and cholesterol to help boost testosterone. Eggs and fish also support muscle-building.

Apply these healthy habits today for your best health yet!1. Only eat when you're hungry. 2. Only drink when you're thirsty.Over-consuming liquid dilutes electrolytes, especially sodium, which can cause dehydration.3. Carbonated water is more hydrating. 4. Find the diet that works best for you.5. Practice intermittent fasting.Intermittent fasting allows your body to recycle damaged proteins, create new tissues, clean up pathogens, and eliminate bacteria, viruses, and mold. 6. Stop snacking between meals. Snacking keeps insulin high. Stopping snacking can significantly improve your health, even if you don't change your diet.7. Lower your carb intake. The most important thing to look at when reading a label is the carbohydrates. You should consume no more than 30 grams of carbohydrates per day.8. Request a fasting insulin test. A fasting insulin test can help you prevent diabetes before it becomes a problem. 9. Test your vitamin D levels.You need at least 10,000 to 20,000 IU of vitamin D per day. Magnesium is vital for proper vitamin D function. 10. Get plenty of potassium.You need 4700 mg of potassium per day. Potassium calms the nervous system, lowers blood pressure, and increases energy.11. Avoid synthetic vitamins and look for high-quality, nutrient-dense supplements. 12. Red meat is the most nutrient-dense protein, vital for health and well-being, energy levels, and healthy blood sugars.13. Counter past antibiotic use with a homemade probiotic mixture to help restore your gut microbiota. 14. Overtraining can deplete your testosterone. Rest is vital to achieve muscle growth and to keep your hormones balanced.15. Take vitamin B1 if you stray from your healthy diet. 16. Choose a natural source like beef liver or liver supplements if you need more iron. 17. Focus on exercise for age-related atrophy.18. Take 50,000 to 100,000 IU of vitamin D before surgery.19. Invest in a good water filter to remove forever chemicals from your drinking water.

Eddie Hall, nicknamed "The Beast," is a British former professional strongman born in 1988 in Stoke-on-Trent, England. He rose to global prominence in 2017 when he became the first person to deadlift 500kg (1,102lbs) under official competition conditions, winning the World's Strongest Man title that same year. Before his strongman career, Hall was a national champion swimmer in his youth. He later worked as a mechanic while developing his strength training. At his competitive peak, he weighed around 400 pounds and consumed up to 12,000 calories daily. After retiring from strongman competition in 2017, Hall transformed his physique, losing significant weight while maintaining strength. He's ventured into boxing, acting, and television, appearing in shows like "The Strongest Man in History" and several documentaries. He remains a popular figure in strength sports through his YouTube channel and other media appearances.

For way too long, I thought training more meant training better. Six or seven days a week, sometimes twice a day, because if I wasn't pushing my limits, was I even making progress?I see this all the time now. People grinding through back-to-back workouts, ignoring the signals their bodies are screaming at them. Constant fatigue, stubborn plateaus, weird little injuries that just won't go away. And for what? More isn't always better. In fact, sometimes, it's the very thing holding you back.I used to think I had to train like an athlete to see results—until my body literally forced me to slow the hell down. The truth is, real progress happens in the recovery, not just in the reps. And if you're stuck, exhausted, or just not seeing the changes you expected… it might be time to rethink your approach.In today's episode, I'm breaking it all down. We'll talk about the signs of overtraining—like constant fatigue, plateaus, and mood swings—and why they happen in the first place. I'll explain how too much exercise can actually mess with your strength, metabolism, and hormones, making it harder to see results. And, most importantly, I'll show you why rest days are just as critical as your workouts and how you can train smarter (not just harder) to get stronger, feel better, and actually make progress.If you've ever felt guilty for taking a rest day, or wondered why your workouts aren't hitting the same way anymore… this episode is for you!Because here's the deal: training smarter > training more. And learning to listen to your body? That's where the real gains happen.I Also Discuss:(00:00) Fitness Q&A(10:46) Effective Strength Training and Fat Loss(24:42) High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) & Mobility(32:07) Footwear for Strength Training(38:23) Podcast Thank You MessageThank You to Our Sponsors:Broads: Broads gives you structured, progressive training and a powerhouse community to keep you strong, consistent, and unstoppable.

As a former pro triathlete, Brad Kearns used to push himself to the extremes of human endurance. He competed globally, chasing medals and personal records, only to eventually confront a humbling truth: his intense cardio regimen wasn't building him up — it was slowly breaking his body down. Overtraining left him exhausted, inflamed, and far from the image of optimal health he once envisioned. Today, Kearns sees fitness differently. Rather than pushing endless mileage, he's embraced shorter, more explosive movements like sprinting, jumping and lifting — movements that mimic our ancestral heritage, and that our bodies naturally crave.  In this episode of the Primal Shift podcast, we talk about why modern fitness culture has become hyper-focused on cardio, overlooking the fact that our bodies thrive when exposed to a balanced set of exercises. We also discuss the consequences of pushing too hard, too often, including skyrocketing cortisol, hampered metabolism and staggering injury rates. Kearns' journey highlights the fact that optimal health is about nuance, not extremes. It's about rediscovering a primal approach to movement that energizes rather than exhausts, and heals rather than harms. By shifting away from relentless endurance toward mindful, primal fitness, we reconnect with our evolutionary blueprint, supporting lifelong vitality rather than short-term achievements.

He is owner of Strength For Endurance, whose multi-disciplinary approach ensures athletes are employing a comprehensive approach to their endurance training; in order to overcome injury, prevent overtraining and keep doing what they love for many years to come. When it comes to preparing for an endurance race or adventure, the training sessions are the easy bit. But what's rarely considered is how this individual is going to integrate a high volume training program onto an already demanding work, family lifestyle.When someone is placing so much demand on their body physically, factors such as blood work and hormones, adequate fuelling, training load management, psychology and having a fundamental level of strength and conditioning are essential. From many years of professional and personal experience, Kriss is passionate about raising the standard of coaching and education to the endurance community and is hosting The Endurance Speaker Series in the UK over the coming months.You can find more info about Kriss and Strength For Endurance at www.strengthforendurance.com or follow @strengthforenduranceand for Tickets to the speaker series coming up in the UK head to the link in the show notes which is hosted on Eventbrite.com: www.eventbrite.com/cc/the-endurance-speaker-series-3956193For more information about the show head to:www.FemaleAthleteNutritionPodcast.comor email:info@femaleathletenutritionpodcast.comTo work with Lindsey on improving your nutrition head to:www.RiseUpNutritionRUN.comor email:Lindsey.RiseUpNutrition@gmail.com

How do you know if you're doing too much?  In today's podcast we discuss 7 key factors that can tell you if you're doing enough in your training, or, too much!  Listen in to learn more!

This podcast was inspired by a recent athlete asking for help, and we think many of you can relate to the situation:  "I've been cycling for nearly 20 years (now 44). I have a stressful job, two kids, and over the past few years I've gain 15 pounds that I can't shake, despite training 10-15 hours in the summer and 6-8 in the winter. What do I do?" Symptoms like low energy, inability to sustain high heart rates, and lack of sweat could point to low energy availability (LEA). Even with calorie counting, your body might not be getting enough fuel to support both your workouts and daily life demands (job, kids, stress). This can lead to a suppressed metabolism and fatigue, making weight loss and performance harder. Weight gain can be age-related hormonal changes that occur in men in their 40's.  Namely a gradual decline in testosterone levels which can affect metabolism, muscle mass, fat distribution, and energy levels. This is sometimes referred to as andropause or age-related hormonal decline. Coaching Advice: The #1 thing you can do is to get tested: A simple blood test can check testosterone, thyroid, and other hormone levels. This will help rule out any medical issues. Then here's what we recommend to get out of the rut, get your mojo back to your training and lose that weight:  Nutrition First: Focus on fueling your workouts with carbs. Try eating a small carb-rich snack (e.g., a banana or toast with honey) before your morning rides. Post-ride, prioritize recovery with protein and carbs to replenish glycogen and repair muscles. Coach Andrew Giniat and Nutritionist Alex Winnicki recently recorded a podcast about how much carbohydrate you need to consume even if you are trying to lose weight. And why low carb diets are bad and will result in rut like this athlete.   The take home point and analogy is that you, as an athlete, are Ferrari and carbohydrates are your fuel (gas) . But the body does not work like a Ferrari in terms of going fast even as they tank empties.  Athletes do better when their tanks are kept at full as possible at all times. This includes before, during and after exercise. HRV and Recovery: Use your HRV data to monitor recovery. If it's consistently low, it might indicate overtraining or stress. Your 7 hours of sleep is solid, but stress and under-fueling can still take a toll. The CoachCat app has a free Whoop offer that will combine your sleep and HRV data with your training data to let you know if you are recovered or not.  Then when you are not ‘feeling it' you can ask for daily adjustments.  Start each morning with personalized recommendations based on your sleep and recovery.   This is so clutch for a masters athletes balancing life's daily demands: job, kids, stress. Training Adjustments: Consider dialing back intensity for a few weeks. Focus on Zone 2 rides to rebuild your aerobic base and avoid burnout. This aligns with your winter training history.   - Take your training to the next level by hiring Coach Justin: https://fascatcoaching.com/collections/coaches/products/justin-bowes -- Try CoachCat Free for a month - with no credit card required ➡️ https://tinyurl.com/47rr7em4
