What do the stubborn body fat you can't seem to lose, your hormones, and metabolic health all have in common? Well…a lot! If you're nearing perimenopause or menopause, you can't miss this conversation. In this episode, host Jenn Trepeck dives into a candid and clarifying conversation with leading health and wellness expert Ashley Fillmore. Ashley is the founder and president of Metabolic Fix and host of the Cheers to Your Success podcast. With nearly 20 years of experience, she helps women heal their metabolism, achieve hormone balance, and support lasting body composition changes. Together, they unpack why so many women still feel lost in the noise of wellness advice and how to make sense of what they're experiencing day-to-day, at each phase of their cycle and even as their cycles change.. This episode is all about discovering your hormone balance, transforming your body composition, and redefining what true health looks and feels like.The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, who discusses wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.IN THIS EPISODE: (05:36) Ashley Filmore explains how she made the health, hormone balance, and body composition space her life's work(09:01) Ashley shares her experience with unhealthy dieting and deprivation(14:28) The number on the scale versus body composition, muscle mass, body fat percentage, and lean muscle(18:39) How certain hormones and body fat distribution correlate, and the importance of tracking your cycle(28:55) Ashley discusses symptoms that may indicate hormone imbalance(35:56) Adjustments to fitness routines and nutrition during your cycle(43:39) Other reasons your hormones can be depletedKEY TAKEAWAYS:The scale doesn't define health, but body composition does: A lower number on the scale doesn't accurately reflect your physical or mental well-being. Proper health is better measured by the balance between lean muscle mass and body fat percentage, which is significantly influenced by hormones that also determine where fat is stored—for example, cortisol can be associated with belly fat, insulin has been linked to love handles, and estrogen is often associated with weight stored in the hips and the lower belly.Where fat accumulates on your body can reveal significant hormonal imbalances, guiding lifestyle and nutritional changes as well as potential hormonal imbalances. Plus, even with a calorie deficit and strength training, stubborn fat won't budge unless you focus on nutrient-dense, whole foods—because it's not just about calories, but the quality of what you eat.Using cycle-tracking apps or devices like the Oura Ring helps women understand their hormonal rhythms, especially as cycles become irregular during perimenopause. By listening to your body, tracking symptoms, and identifying hormonal imbalances, you can tailor your nutrition, exercise, and recovery strategies to align with your current hormonal state, optimizing energy, mood, metabolism, and overall health.Walking and strength training are effective, low-stress ways to support hormonal and metabolic health, especially during perimenopause and menopause. Walking is a free, accessible exercise that improves body composition, hormonal balance, and mental well-being, while intense workouts may be too stressful when hormone levels are low. Incorporating gentle movements, such as yoga, and traditional strength training with compound exercises 2–3 times per week can help maintain health without overexertion.QUOTES: (25:34) “Get to know your body and your baseline, what's normal for you, as opposed to what your doctor might say is normal or common.” - Jenn Trepeck(16:57) “Your hormones matter. It's impacting everything: muscle mass, your body fat percentage and where your body fat is distributed on your body.” Ashley Fillmore(41:55) “Pay attention to how you feel because you may not be textbook, you may be a little outside of what I just mentioned, and that could be normal for you.” Ashley Fillmore(42:48) "The walking, the yoga, the more gentle exercises are probably going to be more effective and feel better when we're in that perimenopause or menopause phase.” - Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramCheers to Your Success!

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...

How can early season training shape your endurance performance for the entire year? Coach Patrick from Endurance Nation joins us to share his wisdom on mastering the early stages of your training calendar. Known for his rich experience in endurance sports, Patrick sheds light on why early season results aren't the ultimate measure of your abilities. He advocates for using early season races, like a 10-mile run or half marathon, as performance benchmarks that provide motivation and a fresh focus. The discussion highlights the importance of strategic reductions in training to prevent burnout, emphasizing that incorporating rest periods is crucial for absorbing training efforts and enhancing overall performance. To boost your cycling skills this spring, Patrick suggests an intense cycling block lasting four to six weeks, reducing other activities like swimming and running to build fluency and handling skills. For those pressed for time, even a three-day cycling weekend can significantly improve fitness. We explore the necessity of progressive overload and strategic planning to maintain a balance between training and personal life. Key takeaways include participating in early season races, eliminating non-essential training, and adopting a volume-based approach to prepare for future challenges. Patrick leaves us with a reminder to focus on enjoyment and resilience, offering additional resources for those eager to achieve their endurance goals.
