Just look up Bacon, Bibles, and Barbells! Enjoy the episode!

This week we're kicking off a two-part series on PCOS, and it's personal. This is part one where Alaina shares her journey of living with PCOS—from the first confusing signs as a teenager, to being given a bad bandaid solution by doctors, to finally finding her own path forward. If you've ever been told to “just go on the pill” or felt like your concerns weren't taken seriously, this story will feel all too familiar.Alaina opens up about how she learned to manage her PCOS, make sense of her symptoms, and ultimately support her body in a way that led to getting pregnant naturally—something she was once told might not be possible!! This conversation is close to our hearts because PCOS is so often misunderstood, and the women who live with it are often left without answers. Sharing this story is about showing that you can take control of your health and find your way back to hope.TOPICS WE COVER:➡ Alaina's first experiences with irregular cycles and symptoms➡ The frustration of being offered band-aid solutions (hello, birth control)➡ Why PCOS is more than just a reproductive condition➡ The emotional impact of feeling unheard in the medical system➡ How Alaina shifted from frustration to self-advocacy➡ The steps she took to better understand and manage her PCOS➡ Getting pregnant naturally after being told it might not happenRESOURCES➡ The Period Repair Manual by Lara Briden➡ 8 Steps to Reverse Your PCOS by Dr. Fiona McCulloch➡ Cycle tracking for self-awareness and advocacy ➡ Power of Periodization (take our FREE masterclass to learn tips that we teach in our program!!)

The new dance season is fast approaching in most of North America, and on this week's podcast episode I discuss some things to consider as we head into a new season. Every year, we see an increase in injury rates in the first 6 weeks of a new dance year. This is for a variety of reasons, but some of the most common ones are dancers doing too much too soon, dancers who are coming into the season fatigued and under-recovered from not having a proper off-season, and dancers who are dealing with niggling injuries that haven't been fully dealt with previously.In this episode, we discuss these different scenarios, as well as touch on things we can do to adjust training load to ensure that dancers are gradually progressing into the new season and staying healthy and injury-free.Podcast episodes mention in this episode:Episode 6: Periodization in DanceEpisode 10: Training Load Management for DancersLearn more about Erika Mayall:Follow me on Instagram: @dancephysioerikaLearn more about me on my website: https://www.allegroperformance.comSign up for my newsletter: Click hereSend me an email: hello@allegroperformance.com

In this episode of the Bacon, Bibles, and Barbells Podcast, some of the High Calling Fitness coaches Justin, Amanda, and Emily cover WHY WE DON'T DO CROSSFIT. People ask us this frequently. "I'm doing CrossFit, isn't that enough?" We talk through why we think CrossFit is not the ideal method for most people. We are thankful to CrossFit for popularizing lifting and barbells and handing that to the culture at large. Strength Training is more popular than ever before, largely due to their influence. We talk about the expense, the culture, the injury risk, the burnout, and the sustainability (or lack there-of) of the CrossFit way. There are several reasons why we just don't recommend it for anyone trying to make a sustainable lifestyle change, especially if you are over 30! Most people benefit WAY more from a personalized approach, aimed at muscle mass and overall health for the long run. Give it a listen here or wherever you get your podcasts!

It's no secret in 2025 that stronger muscles lead to longer life. If you're a woman in perimenopause, postmenopause or anything in between, this is no surprise to you. I think we are very aware of it, but let's unpack how weight lifting treats and prevents chronic diseases. Women, at any age, need stronger muscles for a longer life. Not just for aesthetics, but for functionality and independence.   My Guest: A longtime Vanity Fair contributing editor, Michael Joseph Gross has published investigative reporting, essays, and books about culture, technology, politics, religion, and business. He was raised in rural Illinois and lives in New York City.   Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:04:31] How did this become a topic of interest to you personally?  [00:07:54] Let's connect strength training to prevention and treatment of illnesses often associated - even accepted - with aging? [00:20:17] Weight training has been shown to decrease anxiety and to have positive effects on risk of Alzheimer's or type 3 diabetes, can you explain for the listeners?  [00:26:31] How has the work of Dr. Maria Fiatarone Singh showed that weight training may reduce the risk of Alzheimer's? [00:33:13] Why is lifting heavy important? Do you worry that leading with “lift heavy” intimidates women? What did you uncover as evidence that it is never too late to start progressive strength training?   Why Strength Training? Strength training changes more than just your body—it's internal too. It's not about looking stronger—it's about being stronger. Adolescence and menopause are both times when women feel their bodies are changing without their consent. Strength training gives back a sense of control, capability, and power.   Stronger Muscles Longer Life At Any Age   Strong Youth: Peak bone mass forms in youth—strength training in adolescence builds lifelong health. A 10% increase in bone mass reduces future fracture risk by more than 50%.   Strong in Midlife: Dr. Maria Fiatarone Singh, geriatrician and professor in Sydney, Australia, found that even 90+ year-olds can gain muscle mass with high-intensity training. Weight training can treat and prevent nearly all chronic diseases.   Stronger Muscles Through Weight Lifting Treats and Prevents These Diseases: Type 2 Diabetes Heart Disease Osteoporosis Depression and Anxiety Insomnia Osteoarthritis Frailty Dementia & Alzheimer's Blood Pressure and Cholesterol Fall Risk   Periodization & Smart Strength Training: Periodization: Cycles of high effort, deloading, and rest. Women (especially Type A) tend to push too hard—leading to burnout or injury. Strength training should energize you, not exhaust you. Part of lifting heavy is lifting light. The goal: Live better, not just lift more.   Ancient Greek Lesson: The Right Time to Train Greek word kairos = the “opportune moment” for action. Good training is about doing the right thing at the right time. Don't blindly follow a plan.

Raymond Verheijen (@raymondverheije) is a world renowned fitness coach and has been involved as an assistant in 4 World Cups and 4 EURO's working under Legendary Dutch coach Gus Hiddink, as well as working with several European top clubs like FC Barcelona, Chelsea and Manchester City. As a youth player Verheijen was part of the famous Dutch Youth Academy structure. Unfortunately, his dream of a professional career ended as a chronic injury forced him to retire at the young age of 18. This disadvantage became an advantage as Verheijen started his coaching career at the age of 19. He studied Exercise Physiology and Sport Psychology at the Free University Amsterdam and completed his Masters Degrees in 1995. In 1995, Verheijen developed his Masters thesis into the book ‘Conditioning for Soccer' which became the coach education book of the Dutch FA (KNVB) in 1997. Verheijen became a pro-license instructor at the Dutch FA in 1998.  In 2014, Verheijen published the best-selling book ‘Football Periodisation'. More than 30,000 copies have been sold worldwide. His latest books are ‘Football Coaching Theory' (2020) and ‘Tactical Principles' (2022). In our discussion today, we talk about the importance of understanding fitness as the number of game actions a player can complete in a minute, not mindless running. Fitness must be focused on the ability to repeat game actions, not simply run without the ball. We also discuss injuries, how the US develops slow players because of our tournament model, how playing up must be managed better, and so much more.  Learn more about Raymond and grab his books at www.fcevolution.com.  BECOME A PREMIUM MEMBER OF CHANGING THE GAME PROJECT If you or your club/school is looking for all of our best content, from online courses to blog posts to interviews organized for coaches, parents and athletes, then become a premium member of Changing the Game Project today.

Coaches Justin, Bill, and Amanda offer coaching services for fitness, diet, programming, and more. They can be found here.   In this episode of the Bacon Bibles and Barbells podcast, Coaches Justin, Bill, and Amanda delve into the concept of periodization in training. They explore its application across various fitness domains, including bodybuilding, powerlifting, and lifestyle training. The discussion emphasizes the importance of setting specific goals, adapting training cycles, and the role of nutrition and recovery in achieving optimal results. The coaches share insights on how periodization can prevent injuries and enhance performance, making it a vital component of any training regimen. This conversation delves into the intricacies of training for powerlifting and strongman competitions, focusing on the importance of specialization, tapering, recovery strategies, and mental health post-competition. The speakers discuss how to effectively prepare for competitions, the significance of maintaining movement after intense training, and the psychological challenges athletes face after competition. They also touch on advanced periodization techniques for experienced athletes, emphasizing the need for tailored training approaches as one progresses in their fitness journey.   Takeaways Periodization is essential for setting long-term fitness goals. Different training cycles (macro, meso, micro) help structure workouts effectively. Lifestyle clients often experience natural periodization due to life events. Bodybuilders need to focus on health while pursuing aesthetic goals. Powerlifting requires a focus on hypertrophy and strength maintenance during the off-season. Recovery and nutrition play critical roles in effective periodization. Injuries can arise from repetitive training without variation. Specificity of goals is crucial for effective training outcomes. Periodization can help manage weight fluctuations throughout the year. Understanding individual needs is key to successful training programs. Specialization lifts are crucial for competition preparation. Tapering involves reducing volume while maintaining high loads. Post-competition recovery should include light movement to avoid stiffness. Unilateral training is essential for strongman athletes. Mental health is a significant concern post-competition. Establishing new goals is vital after a competition. Avoid long breaks after competitions to maintain fitness. Hormonal changes can lead to emotional challenges post-competition. Training strategies should evolve after five years of consistent training. Communication with coaches is key for mental and physical recovery.

Feel like your workout motivation fades as the days get shorter? You're definitely not alone. When the colder months set in, the urge to cozy up instead of working out can be strong. But staying active through winter doesn't have to be a struggle—it can actually become an enjoyable part of the season. In this episode of Embrace Your Real, I dive into how you can create a winter fitness routine that works with your body's natural rhythms, making your workout time something you look forward to. One key strategy is adapting your routine to suit winter's slower pace. Resistance training, for example, can be a grounding choice that supports your goals without overwhelming your energy levels. Embracing periodization—essentially, cycling through different workout intensities and focuses—allows you to stay consistent without burning out. Fitness isn't about pushing forward relentlessly; it's about tuning into the season's natural ebb and flow and working with it, not against it.   I also discuss: (00:00) - Navigating Seasonal Changes in Fitness (07:58) Seasonal Maintenance (10:03) - Creating a Cozy Winter Workout Environment (16:32) - Embracing Authenticity for Inner Beauty and more!   If you want more from me, be sure to check out...   Follow me on Instagram: @juliealedbetter | @embraceyourreal | @movementwithjulie Movement With Julie | App: https://sale.movementwithjulie.com/ Macro Counting Made Simple Online Academy: https://www.macrocountingmadesimple.com/ Website: www.juliealedbetter.com Get my eBook: FREE Macro Counting Ebook Amazon Storefront: Julie Ledbetter's Amazon Page
