Fast fat loss in menopause is not really the goal. Let's be realistic and say this right out of the gate. Fast fat loss is a myth. You may, however, drop inflammation fairly quickly with the right type of exercise. Part 1: The Fat Burning Fundamentals Let's start with the basics. When we talk about fat burning during exercise, we need to understand two key concepts: Percentage of Fat Used for Fuel Total Calories Burned Here's something surprising: At rest, we burn about 85% fat for fuel. Your body is already a fat-burning machine when you're sitting on the couch! Here's where it gets interesting.. During low-intensity exercise like walking, you burn a higher percentage of fat for fuel, but you're burning calories at a slower rate overall. During high-intensity exercise like running, you burn a lower percentage of fat for fuel, but you're torching calories much faster. Part 2: The EPOC Effect - Your Metabolic Afterburn EPOC or Excess Post-Exercise Oxygen Consumption, but I like to call it your metabolic afterburn. This is the energy your body continues to burn AFTER your workout is over. High-intensity exercise creates a significant EPOC effect. Your body keeps burning calories for hours after you finish your workout as it works to restore oxygen levels, repair tissues, and return to its normal state. It's like your metabolism stays revved up long after you've stopped moving. Low-intensity exercise produces minimal EPOC. Once you stop walking, your metabolism pretty quickly returns to baseline. You burned calories during the activity, but the party's over when you stop. This is where high-intensity exercise starts to look really appealing for fat loss. You're not just burning calories during the workout - you're creating a metabolic boost that lasts for hours. Know the Best Strategy for Fast Fat Loss in Menopause May Surprise You Part 3: Sprints vs Steady-State Running - The Game Changer When we compare running at a slow to moderate pace versus doing sprint intervals, the sprint work wins hands down for fat loss. Sprint intervals create a massive EPOC effect. Your body works harder to recover from intense bursts, burning calories long after you're done. Sprint intervals are incredibly effective at burning both total body fat AND visceral belly fat. The beauty of sprints is that you can get incredible results in much less time. A 15-20 minute sprint session can be more effective for fat loss than an hour of steady jogging. For busy women in menopause, this efficiency factor is huge. Part 4: The Cortisol Connection - Why This Matters in Menopause Now we need to talk about cortisol, because this is where things get really important for women in menopause. High-intensity exercise creates a greater rise in cortisol compared to low-intensity exercise. This isn't necessarily bad! This cortisol response is actually normal and necessary. It's how your body releases blood sugar to be used as fuel and creates energy for exercise. Low-intensity exercise like walking creates little rise in cortisol. Comfortable walking, dancing, yoga, or tai chi often actually REDUCE cortisol levels. The problem isn't the acute cortisol rise from exercise itself. The problem is chronic elevated cortisol combined with high-intensity exercise when your system is already overloaded. If your stress bucket is already overflowing from work, relationships, poor sleep, and hormonal changes, adding high-intensity exercise makes it spill over. When cortisol is chronically elevated, it can sabotage your adrenal function and ultimately affect your thyroid. This is particularly relevant during menopause when our hormone systems are already in flux. Choosing the Right Cardio for Fast Fat Loss in Menopause The Hot Not Bothered is open for enrollment as this episode goes live. If you need support getting a start, restart or reset, now is the time! Learn More Here Part 5: The Real Running vs Walking Debate Here's where I want to challenge the traditional running versus walking debate. Maybe it's less about the percentage of fat burned for fuel and more about not burning yourself out. Let me give you a practical example from my own experience: Walking at a 5.0 pace on the treadmill is NOT comfortable for me. It's an effort - I'm breathing hard, I'm sweating, I'm working. But jogging at 5.8? That's actually quite slow for running. It's likely harder on my knees while not really providing enough impact to benefit my bone density. Here's a crucial point: Every time you run - meaning both feet leave the ground - you add four times your body weight in impact to your knee joints. Yet ironically, this repetitive impact isn't the kind of stimulus that optimally benefits bone density once you do it regularly. While jumping and purposeful impact exercises do provide bone density benefits, repetitive exercise loads like jogging don't create additional stress - they just create more of the same stress. So sometimes, a challenging walk might actually give you better results than an easy jog, with less wear and tear on your joints. The sad myth about running vs walking is that it will result in fast fat loss in menopause - or any time for that matter. Smarter Workouts for Fast Fat Loss in Menopause — Without Burnout Part 6: When Your Body Is Telling You to Slow Down Chronic cortisol elevation is often linked to inadequate recovery - particularly nutrition - than to workout intensity itself. If you're on a chronically low-carbohydrate or low-calorie diet, you may experience prolonged cortisol elevations regardless of your exercise. When your body lacks fuel, it compensates by releasing more cortisol to break down fat, muscle, and even bone tissue for energy. Chronic cortisol is more likely under these conditions: Too much too soon (occasional overreaching isn't a problem, but repeated overreaching is) Undereating before, during, or after exercise Lack of rest time between workouts for repair Inadequate sleep Planned diet or fasting state Lower intensity workouts may work better because you're not eating enough, not sleeping enough, or not managing your overall stress load. The biggest problem? Not eating enough. Going too low carb. Making statements like "my body loves this" when it's giving you signs you're exhausted, holding onto weight, or failing to gain muscle. No, it doesn't love it. Part 7: Making the Right Choice for YOU How do you decide between running and walking, or between steady-state and sprint work? Assess your current stress load: How's your sleep? Are you eating enough, especially carbohydrates? How are your energy levels throughout the day? Are you seeing the results you want? If you're well-rested, well-fed, and managing stress effectively, higher intensity work including sprints is incredibly effective for fat loss. If you're stressed, under-fueled, or sleep-deprived, walking or other lower-intensity activities is better right now. That's not settling for less - that's being smart about working WITH your body instead of against it. The best exercise program is what you can do consistently while feeling energized and strong, not depleted and exhausted. Fast Fat Loss in Menopause Differs for Every Body in Every Stage Part 8: Practical Applications For sprint work: Start with just 1-2 sprint sessions per week. These could be 15-30 second all-out efforts followed by as much time needed for recovery, repeated 4-6 times. This gives you maximum fat-burning benefit with minimal time investment. For steady-state work: If you choose to run steadily, make sure it's at an intensity that's appropriately challenging. If you choose to walk, don't be afraid to make it challenging - hills, speed, or resistance can all increase the demand. For recovery: Always prioritize adequate nutrition and sleep. Your results happen during recovery, not just during the workout. Listen to your body's feedback. If you're consistently tired, holding onto weight despite "doing everything right," or feeling burnt out, it might be time to dial down the intensity and focus on recovery. Conclusion The bottom line? Both running and walking can be effective for fat loss, but the devil is in the details. Sprint work offers incredible efficiency and targets visceral fat effectively. Steady-state cardio has its place, especially when recovery demands are high. The key is matching your exercise intensity to your body's current capacity for stress and recovery. During menopause, this becomes even more critical as our hormone systems are already adapting to change. Your exercise program should energize you, not exhaust you. It should work with your lifestyle, not against it. And it should leave you feeling strong and capable, not depleted and overwhelmed. Remember, there's no real magic trick for fast fat loss in menopause. However, you can get there faster - sometimes by slowing down and sometimes by sprinting. But always by weight lifting.

What percentage chance do you give Will Howard to be the Steelers answer? Bob and Austin are below 20%, but Bob has some optimism. We have a punting competition! What's the more likely experiment to work: Mark Robinson at fullback or Darnell Washington at tackle?
Joe recaps his adventurous weekend. We react to the incredible poem written by Dave Parker that his son recited yesterday at the HOF. Will there be another Pirate in the HOF? The Pirates have squandered another great Skenes season. Fans shouldn't be hesitant to trade Keller for a bat. Steven Kwan and Jarren Duran are possible targets. The Cubs could also move a top prospect for Keller. Now is the time to take some risks. Joe didn't have cell service for almost a full week. We agree that cell phones have ruined the world. Skenes ERA is unparalleled in the past century. A caller points out that the Pirates gave Parker a million dollars. A caller blames the hitting coach. An update on Bubba Chandler. A caller is ornery about trading Mitch Keller. There's always going to be uncertainty trading for a hitter who hasn't been proven in the MLB. Deshon Elliott says the Steelers defense could possibly be the best in the league this year. Where's the proof of this? The numbers are mediocre. Haven't we learned our lesson from previous seasons? Is there delusion with the D? Will it be built for the long haul? Cordarrelle Patterson says he's released. Aaron Rodgers had a mature response to Terry Bradshaw's comments. Joe is still open to the idea that it could work, at least there's a chance. Mike DeFabo joins to react to the release of Cordarrelle Patterson and share a funny story about him, the injuries along the offensive line, Mike's reaction to the Aaron Rodgers experience, his usage under center, the players who have most impressed and most disappointed, an under the radar player opening eyes, what he's seen from the top rookies, Will Howard is the fan favorite and the crowd reaction to Rodgers. Sean's look around the NFL: Kenny Pickett's injury, Shemar Stewart finally signed with the Bengals, Christian Wilkins released, Travis Hunter could be Ohtani. Noah Hiles joins us from San Fran to give the latest on Mitch Keller's trade outlook, Bednar's return could be on the rise, which established MLB players could be trade targets. Percentage chance of trading: Hayes, Cruz, Reynolds, and more. Why has Reynolds struggled so much? A discussion about San Francisco and the other Joe Starkey. Joe shares his favorite Steelers memories of Cordarrelle Patterson and gets sad thinking about it. What will be the tenor of this year's camp? Could Kaleb Johnson be a better fit and overall player than Najee Harris.

A crisis-level shortage of clergy in North American Reform and Conservative synagogues has led to a fascinating new phenomenon – an exodus of Israeli-born rabbis moving to the United States and Canada to serve as spiritual leaders. On the Haaretz Podcast, Judy Maltz, Haaretz’s Jewish world editor who has reported on the trend, explains how these Israelis are filling an ever-growing need as fewer and fewer young North American Jews are training to be rabbis in non-Orthodox movements. Meanwhile, the number of Israelis receiving rabbinic ordination has grown. “I think what's luring them abroad primarily is the salaries and the conditions,” Maltz told podcast host Allison Kaplan Sommer, adding there was another extremely appealing factor: respect. “A woman rabbi who had recently taken a job in New York said to me ‘I no longer have to prove I'm a rabbi here.’ That is a very appealing factor: being admired and accepted for what you are and your profession, and that you don't have to constantly fight for recognition and legitimacy.” By contrast, in Israel, they are still battling for that legitimacy and even face mockery. The Israeli imports are helping to solve the “very huge shortage of rabbis” to serve U.S. congregations in the non-Orthodox Jewish community “because nobody really wants to go to rabbinical school anymore and the whole business of organized synagogue life has become less appealing,” Maltz explained. With liberal Jews affiliated with Jewish organizations (like synagogues) are having fewer and fewer children, she said, it has also been more difficult for Reform and Conservative congregations to sustain their traditionally strong youth movements “which have been the pipeline tor rabbinical school.” The new imports, Maltz noted, are not only breathing new spiritual life into their new congregations “but since October 7, these Israeli rabbis find themselves serving as a kind of bridge between their congregations and Israel – and as an important resource on information about what's happening in Israel where the news changes so quickly. They are finding themselves in this new and rather unexpected role of explaining what's happening.” Subscribe to Haaretz.com for up-to-the-minute news and analysis from Israel and the Middle East in English.

Dr. Tony Ebel addresses a common parent concern: "Why would a PX Doc suggest four times a week for a 2-year-old? Is that too much?" In this comprehensive episode, Dr. Tony explains the science behind high-frequency chiropractic care for young children, breaking down the PX Care Plan Builder methodology that combines detailed case history analysis with advanced neurological scans. He introduces key concepts like "percentage of life subluxated" and explains why children's rapidly developing nervous systems require intensive care to repair damage while growth continues at breakneck speed. Dr. Tony also discusses why the toddler-to-preteen years can be the most challenging, requiring parents to understand that neurological healing must happen while the brain develops millions of new neurons and synapses daily.Key Topics & Timestamps[00:01:00] - The Two-Part Care Plan Formula: Introduction to the PX Care Plan methodology and why frequency depends on stress history and neurological scan results[00:05:00] - The Perfect Storm Reality: Why 20-30% of infants now need daily adjustments and how stress begins in utero during fetal development[00:08:00] - Percentage of Life Subluxated: Dr. Matt Hill's concept explained - how early and prolonged stress creates the need for intensive care protocols[00:10:00] - The 180 MPH Repair Job: Why treating developing children is like fixing an engine while driving - growth and development stress an already compromised system[00:14:00] - The Most Challenging Cases: Why toddlers through preteens are more challenging than infants or teenagers, and the bumpy road of pediatric neurological healing-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

Only a small percentage of Health Savings Account owners will take advantage of this opportunity initially, but the number may grow in the future when HSA-qualified plan enrollees realize how cost certainty for primary care, a focus on maintaining health, and assistance in navigating other care based on price and quality dovetail with their financial and medical goals. By William G. (Bill) Stuart | July 3, 2025 The Senate finished its version of the reconciliation bill and sent it to the next step in the legislative process. Which Health Savings Account provisions survived the upper chamber? The Senate has been busy for nearly a month since the House of Representatives sent a reconciliation bill to the upper chamber for review. A reconciliation bill is particularly important because it can pass the Senate with 51 (of 100 or 101) votes. In contrast, all other bills must have a 60-vote majority if the minority demands that standard. RELATED INDUSTRY PERSPECTIVE AND INSIGHTS October 16-18, 2025 Industry's Annual Conference The House bill contained 10 provisions to expand or enhance Health Savings Accounts. Of the 10, only two survived the final Senate vote of 51-50 earlier this week. In addition, the Senate added a topic that was not addressed by the House. Here are the Health Savings Account provisions in the Senate-approved bill: READ FULL ARTICLE ON LINKEDIN ...

Episode 3153: Sam from Financial Samurai sheds light on a growing financial vulnerability in America: nearly 30% of households have no investments beyond their primary residence. He explores how financial trauma, wage stagnation, and lack of education have led to under-diversification, urging readers to adopt a more balanced wealth-building strategy for true financial independence. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.financialsamurai.com/percentage-wealth-outside-primary-residence/ Quotes to ponder: "Roughly 30% of households have no 401k, no IRA, no after-tax investment account, no private equity investments, no venture debt investments, no nothing beyond the value of their primary residence!"
