In this powerful episode of The Scratch Golfer's Mindset Podcast, I sit down with former MMA coach and mindset expert, Patrick Sebastien, to explore the art of mental toughness — both inside and outside the ropes. Drawing from years in the fight world and his work with elite golfers, Patrick unpacks how adversity, flow states, and physical intensity combine to build unshakable confidence and resilience on the golf course. You'll learn how to intentionally seek and use adversity to your advantage, train like an athlete to improve emotional control under pressure, and create your own blueprint for peak performance. Patrick and I dive deep into visualization, breathwork, and post-round reflection as essential tools to develop composure, focus, and self-belief when the stakes are high. In this episode, you'll learn: How to reframe adversity as opportunity and bounce back fast after a blow-up hole (or business setback). Why flow states require struggle first, and how to use challenge to trigger "the zone." A simple gym-to-course formula: create controlled physical stress, then regulate it with breath so pressure feels familiar on the tee. The breath training + visualization sequence Patrick uses pre-round to build calm, focus, and confidence. How to design on-course pressure reps (mini challenges) so tournaments feel like just another rep. How an identity shift ("I am an athlete") unlocks consistency, intensity, and faster scoring gains. The expect/accept model: expect greatness, accept imperfection, and re-engage on the next shot. Ways to calibrate your arousal level (not too calm, not too hyped) to hit your personal performance sweet spot. Whether you're chasing a club championship or your next business milestone, this episode will help you expect greatness — and perform like it. Get your pencils ready and start listening. P.S.

Instagram: @thegolfhypnotherapist Twitter: @parsoverbogeys Key Takeaways: Perseverance is the foundation of bounce-back ability. Adversity creates flow; no struggle, no growth. Great players train adversity before they face it. Physical stress builds emotional control. Fitness isn't optional—it's a performance multiplier. Breathwork bridges chaos and composure. Journaling post-round accelerates learning and awareness. You can't control results—but you can always control your process. Expect greatness, but accept imperfection. Visualization isn't fantasy—it's mental reps for success. Meditation sharpens calm, control, and clarity under pressure. True athletes embrace discomfort and keep expanding their limits. A champion's mindset is forged in the gym before it's displayed on the course. Key Quotes: Adversity is a wake-up call. It's fuel, not failure. Flow only exists because of struggle. Train hard, fight easy. The harder your training, the easier your performance. Physical stress and mental stress present the same way. Learn to master one, and you master both. If you never fail, you're probably not trying hard enough. Expect greatness while accepting less than greatness. The further I went in martial arts, the more peaceful I became. You can't control what the course throws at you, but you can control how you respond. Golfers don't need to become bodybuilders—they need to become athletes. If you don't expect greatness, how will you ever achieve it? The champion's mindset is earned in the gym before it's displayed on the course.

Send us a textIn this episode, I explain how women can get stronger, recover faster, and feel more confident by training with their hormones and not fighting them.For years, women were told to train like smaller men. But your energy, recovery, and performance naturally shift across your cycle and understanding that rhythm changes everything.I'll walk you through each phase of the menstrual cycle (and what to do if yours is irregular or you're in perimenopause), showing how to adjust workouts, recovery, and nutrition for better results and fewer plateaus.Inside, you'll learn: - The four phases of your cycle and how hormones impact strength and motivation - When to lift heavy and when to prioritize recovery - How to adjust carbs and protein across your cycle to reduce cravings - Why sleep and stress management matter even more in the luteal phaseYour cycle isn't a setback, it's your superpower. Train in alignment with your body, not in resistance to it.

In this episode, Jared Powell is joined by Dr. Jackson Fyfe, exercise scientist and Senior Lecturer at Deakin University, to explore the science and practicality of resistance training across the lifespan. They unpack everything from how kids can safely lift weights to how older adults can maintain muscle health and longevity. Jackson also shares insights from his research on training dosage, hypertrophy, minimal effective dose, and how resistance and aerobic exercise can (and should) coexist. This conversation spans from myth-busting (“weights stunt growth”) to deep physiological insights about muscle as an endocrine organ. It's a clear, evidence-based discussion that reminds us why lifting weights might just be the most underrated health intervention available. Key topics include: Why resistance training matters at every age The health benefits beyond muscle and strength How little training you can do and still get results Strength vs hypertrophy, what actually matters? Combining cardio and lifting: interference or synergy?

Osteoporosis affects 10 million Americans, and research shows resistance training effectively builds bone density by creating mechanical stress that signals bone-building cells to strengthen skeletal structure Weightlifting (80% to 85% of your 1 rep max) performed two to three times weekly produces the greatest bone density gains, while walking and swimming provide insufficient force for bone strengthening Essential exercises include squats, deadlifts, incline pushups, hip rotations, and chair squats, progressing gradually in intensity while maintaining proper form to minimize injury risk Blood flow restriction (BFR) training, also known as KAATSU in Japan, enhances bone formation markers even at low intensities, allowing effective muscle and bone strengthening without heavy weights or pain Consistency matters most. Research shows that training for one year or more significantly improves bone mineral density, cortical thickness, and overall bone geometry across all ages and genders

Every 80 seconds, a woman dies from heart disease — yet most still think cancer is the bigger threat. In this minisode, I sit down with Dr. Jeremy London, board-certified cardiothoracic surgeon, to unpack why women's cardiovascular risk skyrockets after menopause and how hormones, inflammation, and lifestyle choices all connect. This episode features highlights from our full conversation, which premiered July 24th, 2025. Watch the full episode here → https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jbvQRZgb3w Dr. London explains how declining estrogen drives visceral fat, raises cholesterol, and fuels chronic inflammation — creating a “perfect storm” for heart attacks, strokes, and even Alzheimer's.

In this special edition of Late Night Health, host Mark Alyn sat down with Angela McGregor, founder of the National Menopause Show, to discuss why this groundbreaking event is needed and what women—and men—can expect when it arrives at the Anaheim Convention Center.Angela shared her deeply personal motivation for creating the show. After suffering for years with perimenopausal symptoms and finding little help from her doctors, she eventually discovered solutions that worked. This experience opened her eyes to a widespread problem: menopause education is largely missing from standard medical training in North America. Too often, women are dismissed, misdiagnosed, or handed antidepressants when they seek support for symptoms ranging from hot flashes and night sweats to more surprising issues like frozen shoulder, tooth loss, and hair thinning.The National Menopause Show is designed to close this gap by providing credible, accessible education directly to women. Angela emphasized that menopause is not one-size-fits-all—there are more than 100 recognized symptoms, and each woman's journey is unique. The event offers a safe, supportive space where women can openly discuss concerns about mood, bone health, sexual health, and overall well-being.This year marks the show's U.S. debut, following a highly successful launch in Toronto in 2024. Attendees in Anaheim will benefit from presentations by physicians, nurse practitioners, and specialists who are at the forefront of menopause research and treatment. Sessions include Menopause 101, Beyond HRT: Non-Hormonal Options, The Benefits of Resistance Training, and practical workshops on advocating for oneself with healthcare providers and at work. Other topics range from sleep care to breast cancer survivorship.The event also highlights the importance of men's understanding. Angela and Mark stressed that spouses and partners can play a critical role in supporting women, and men themselves need education to navigate these changes with compassion.Beyond lectures, the show features exhibits, services, and even entertainment, such as The Third Act, a comedic troupe finding humor in menopause. Tickets are reasonably priced at $45 for one day or $55 for the full weekend, making the event accessible to as many women as possible.Angela concluded by encouraging women to prepare questions before attending, ensuring they can make the most of the expertise available. Whether you are in your 30s anticipating perimenopause, in the midst of it, or supporting someone else, the show offers invaluable insights and resources.For listeners and readers: Tickets can be purchased at NationalMenopauseShow.com.

In this episode, Dr. Jockers explains why building muscle is key for anti-aging and longevity. Muscle protects against sarcopenia, stabilizes blood sugar, lowers inflammation, and supports brain health through compounds called myokines. Resistance training is the foundation. Learn how to use compound movements, train in the right rep ranges, and recover properly to build strong muscle that lasts instead of chasing short-term gains. Nutrition and fasting are just as important. Dr. Jockers covers protein targets, calorie balance, carb cycling, and intermittent fasting strategies that fuel muscle growth while keeping your body metabolically flexible.

This episode might shake some foundations.Because we're diving into something almost no one talks about… But it might be the single most misunderstood and misused variable in your training.Rest. That's right. Rest periods.And no — I'm not talking about sleeping at night or taking a rest day. I'm talking about those 30 seconds... 60 seconds... 2 minutes... The space between your sets.Most people I coach — whether in my group fitness classes or one-on-one — they think just because they're lifting weights, they're doing strength training. But that's not how the body works.You can be holding a barbell and still not be strength training.What determines whether your training builds strength, muscle, endurance, or just gets you sweaty — Isn't the exercise. It's the stimulus. And REST is a major part of that stimulus.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 this episode of Keeping Abreast, Dr. Jenn Simmons welcomes Dr. Ashley Lucas, a former professional ballerina turned PhD nutritionist and founder of PhD Weight Loss. Dr. Lucas shares her remarkable journey from struggling with under-eating and injury in the ballet world to helping over 11,000 people lose nearly 500,000 pounds by addressing the real root of weight issues: metabolic health.Together, Dr. Jenn and Dr. Ashley expose the myths of “eat less, move more,” unpack the dangers of visceral fat, and explain why true, lasting weight loss is more about hormones and mindset than willpower. They also dive into hot topics like GLP-1 weight loss drugs, protein and macro balance, over-exercise, sleep, and the misunderstood role of fat in our diets.Whether you've battled weight loss plateaus, wondered why BMI is misleading, or want to protect your long-term metabolic health, this conversation offers a science-backed roadmap for sustainable change.In This Episode, You Will Learn:How Dr. Ashley's ballet career and health collapse led her to study metabolismWhy “eat less, move more” fails most peopleThe unique dangers of visceral (belly) fat and how it drives diseaseWhy GLP-1 drugs may create more problems than they solveHow protein, fat, and carb balance impacts weight loss and metabolic healthWhy BMI is outdated—and better tools for measuring healthThe role of sleep, stress, and mindset in weight managementWhy over-exercising can sabotage fat lossPractical steps to reset metabolism and protect muscle mass

In this episode of the Movement Logic Podcast, we take a hard look at one of our own core messages and ask: does it have to be heavy to build bone? We unpack a landmark systematic review and meta-analysis that compared more than 100 exercise interventions in postmenopausal women, looking at low, moderate, and high intensities across resistance training, impact, and combined programs.We explain the big picture: resistance training works across intensities, moderate intensity often performs just as well as heavy, and impact-only isn't the standalone solution it's often made out to be. We also highlight how few truly high-intensity trials exist, why that matters, and what it means for interpreting the data.Along the way, we reflect on why it's important to update your message when new evidence emerges, and how this research shifts—not our programming, but our language—around lifting heavy. You'll come away with a clearer understanding of what actually builds bone, what the science says (and doesn't yet say), and why there's more than one effective way to get stronger bones.SIGN UP for the Bone Density Course Interest ListFOLLOW Movement Logic on Instagram00:00 Introduction and Episode Overview09:37 New Research on Exercise Intensity and Bone-Building Exercise for Postmenopausal Women37:08 About the Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis52:20 Meta-Analysis Results Overview54:16 Lumbar Spine Analysis59:00 Femoral Neck Analysis01:01:43 Total Hip Analysis01:02:40 Key Takeaways and Summary01:04:17 Meta-Regression Insights01:09:47 Clinical vs. Statistical Significance01:14:14 Discussion on Bias01:17:26 Engaging with the Community and Expert Opinions01:39:46 Debunking Myths About Women and Heavy Lifting01:40:39 Addressing Misconceptions around Lifting Heavy01:47:25 Cultural Shifts and Women in Strength Training02:05:58 Practical Benefits of Heavy Lifting02:11:44 Final ThoughtsREFERENCES:LIFTMOR Trial and YouTube videoKistler-Fischbacher Systematic Review with Meta-Analysis91: LIFTMOR, Not Less: An Interview with Professor Belinda BeckStu Phillips IG page and postKorpelainen paper100: The Hidden Cost of "Just Do Something" Fitness Advice
If you've ever doubted your ability to make muscle mass and strength gains after menopause, this episode is for you. It's not too late to gain strength and lean muscle mass can be gained at any age—even after 85. Based on a 2024 Study on Resistance Training in Older Adults by Int. Journal of Sports Nutrition & Exercise Metabolism, here's what happened and the results: Participants: 17 adults aged 65–75. 12 adults aged 85+. Program: Duration: 12 weeks, 3x per week Structure: Warm-up 4 lower body sets 3 upper body exercises (2 sets each) Stretching Results: Quadriceps strength increased in all participants 65–75 group: 1–18% 85+ group: 6–21% 1RM leg extension increased in all participants 65–75 group: 38% ± 20% 85+ group: 46% ± 14% Improvements were seen in lean mass, strength and functional activities like chair stands, gait speed, timed up-and-go. Defining Muscle Mass and Strength Gains After Menopause Exercise intensity is based on decreasing repetitions to muscular fatigue. Exercise volume is based on the number of sets. Considerations for Exercise Volume in Women in Menopause Volume = sets x reps x weight or total weekly workload. Start small (1–2 sets, 2x per week if inactive). Build to 3x only once consistent. Balance recovery: not just alternating workout/rest days, but also factoring in life stress. Menopausal women may need 48–72 hours between resistance sessions, per muscle group. For women post menopause; increasing the number of days per week to reach greater exercise volume can be problematic because of the need for balance with recovery days. We don't mean 1 day work, 1 day rest. It can mean 1 day of high intensity work and 2 or 3 days light or moderate exercise for another type for recovery. Start Your Strength Gains After Menopause The beginning phases of exercise should last longer for a woman starting in her 60s or 70s. Muscle, ligaments and tendons collectively are not as resilient at 60 as they were at 20. Since most early improvements are due to neural adaptations and heavier weights don't accelerate that, progress at a pace so you know you've exercised muscles but aren't sore or uncomfortable. You're in this for life. There's time. The adaptive response to resistance training is preserved even in males and females over 85. Protein & Resistance Training Two drivers of muscle protein synthesis: Resistance Training Adequate Protein. For metabolic health: ~100g/day (for 160 lb woman). For optimal fitness: closer to 160g/day. Protein recommendation for a 160lb adult is 60 grams of protein day. Only 46% of older adults get that. 5-Step Protein & Resistance Training Process: Track your current protein intake. Compare with recommendations based on age, weight, activity. Identify gaps without judgment. Close the gap gradually. Set short-term goals, especially starting with breakfast protein. Muscle Mass and Strength Gains After Menopause are Dependent On… Relative Strength Training Power decreased significantly after the age of 50 years and was negatively and strongly associated with mobility limitations. Mobility & Longevity Connection Strength must be paired with mobility to prevent limitations. Key focus areas: ankles, hips, upper back. Loss of mobility = harder to regain later. More… much more on mobility in upcoming posts. References: Journal of Cachexia Sarcopenia and Muscle. 2021, PMID: 34216098. Journal of Nutrition, Health and Aging. 2019, PMID: 30932132.

This episode originally dropped on February 12, 2025.Bill Campbell, PhD, has spent his entire career as a fat loss researcher. So when his wife hit menopause and wanted help with body composition changes, he thought it would be easy. Spoiler alert: It was not. Which made him realize his field had a lot to learn, especially about active women whose bodies change even when their training and nutrition has not. Now he's on a mission, diving into the literature and conducting research of his own to further our understanding of body composition changes during this time of life. We talk all about it, what he's learned, and his work developing a Female Fitness Menopause Survey to learn more.Bill Campbell, PhD is a Professor of Exercise Science and Director of the Performance and Physique Enhancement Laboratory at the University of South Florida. He is also a Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist from the National Strength & Conditioning Association and former president of the International Society of Sports Nutrition (where he is also 1 of 35 individuals to be recognized as a ‘Fellow' of the organization—an honor reserved for those individuals who have outstanding contributions to the field of sports nutrition). He has published over 200 scientific papers and abstracts, three textbooks, and 20 book chapters in areas related to physique enhancement, sports nutrition, resistance training, and dietary supplementation.

Is Zone 2 cardio really the key to longevity and fat loss—or have we been misled? In this solo episode, Louisa challenges the fitness status quo and reveals why low-intensity steady-state cardio might be wasting your time—especially if you're a woman. Drawing on new 2025 research and her deep background in exercise physiology, Louisa explains how men and women respond differently to training, and why higher-intensity workouts may be far more effective for improving mitochondrial health, brain aging, VO2 max, and metabolic flexibility. If you're a woman in your 30s, 40s, 50s, or 60s trying to optimize your longevity, brain function, and body composition—this is a must-listen. True optimization and longevity never come from comfort alone. You'll learn: Why Zone 2 may not improve mitochondrial health like you think The real training zones that boost VO2 max, fat oxidation & brain function How perimenopausal and menopausal women must train differently The exact weekly routine to optimize longevity, body comp & cognition *** Subscribe to The Neuro Experience for more conversations at the intersection of brain science and performance.
