Insulin resistance isn't just about sugar—and it's not just about weight.In this episode of Health Hacks, Tara Peterson and Dr. Jeni explain why resistance training is one of the most effective tools for improving insulin sensitivity and protecting metabolic health.Using current research and clinical insight, they break down how insulin works, why muscle is the body's largest glucose sink, and how strength training improves blood sugar control, reduces visceral fat, lowers inflammation, and slows metabolic aging—even after the workout is over.You'll also learn why up to 93% of U.S. adults are metabolically unhealthy, why muscle loss accelerates insulin resistance after age 30, and how just 2–3 strength training sessions per week can make a meaningful difference.If you're struggling with blood sugar swings, fatigue, inflammation, or stubborn weight gain—this episode is for you.
In this episode of the Garage Gym Athlete podcast, Jerred and Dave delve into the concept of concurrent training, which combines strength and aerobic training. They discuss a recent study on concurrent training, exploring its effects on muscle protein synthesis and hypertrophy. The conversation covers personal experiences with concurrent training, the interference effect, and the importance of proper programming and nutrition. They emphasize the need for athletes to set clear performance goals and the significance of recovery in achieving those goals. The episode concludes with insights on how to effectively approach hybrid athlete training. Takeaways Concurrent training is essential for overall fitness. The interference effect can impact strength and endurance. Proper programming is crucial for concurrent training success. Nutrition plays a vital role in hybrid athlete training. Setting clear performance goals helps in training. Recovery is as important as training itself. Hypertrophy can be achieved while focusing on performance. Avoid arbitrary goals; focus on measurable metrics. The minimum effective dose is key in training. Don't neglect the importance of sleep and hydration.

Dr. Gabrielle Lyon doesn’t just talk about strength—she reframes it, revealing how building muscle is a daily practice of resilience, clarity, and long-term health. Jay sits down with Dr. Gabrielle Lyon for a conversation that shifts how we think about health, strength, and aging. What starts as a conversation about fitness quickly becomes something deeper: our responsibility to our future selves. Jay shares his own journey with exercise, mindset, and consistency, while Gabrielle challenges long-held beliefs around weight loss, diet culture, and why so many people feel exhausted, stuck, or confused about their health.. Together, they unpack why muscle is far more than an aesthetic goal, it’s a metabolic organ that influences brain health, longevity, hormones, confidence, and disease prevention. Gabrielle breaks down why weight loss alone can backfire, how being “skinny fat” puts people at real risk, and why muscle loss may be linked to diabetes, Alzheimer’s, and chronic fatigue. Jay bridges the science to everyday life, digging into practical questions about protein, resistance training, walking, cardio, fasting, supplements, and how even small actions, like pushups or cold exposure, can create powerful mental shifts. In this interview, you'll learn: How to Build Muscle for Longevity, Not Just Appearance How to Stop Chasing Weight Loss and Start Building Strength How to Eat Protein in a Way That Actually Builds Muscle How to Avoid Being “Skinny Fat” and Why It Matters How to Balance Cardio and Resistance Training for Real Results How to Build Physical Strength That Supports Emotional Resilience No matter your age, starting point, or past habits, it’s never too late to build strength from the inside out. Aging is inevitable, but feeling weak, stuck, or disconnected doesn’t have to be. You are allowed to become stronger, mentally and physically, one choice at a time and that choice is always available to you today.

When it comes to long-term health and fitness, most people focus on performance or appearance. But one of the most important benefits of strength training has nothing to do with how you look. It's resilience. In this episode of Beast Over Burden, Niki Sims and Andrew Jackson continue the C.L.A.R.A. series with R is for Resilience, breaking down how resilience through resistance training makes you harder to injure, faster to heal, and better prepared for the unexpected. They explore real-world examples of slips, falls, illness, and setbacks — and why people who consistently lift weights tend to recover faster and maintain independence longer. From carrying more muscle mass as a physical reserve, to how strength training makes fat loss and recovery easier, this episode explains why resilience isn't accidental — it's built. You'll hear why resistance training prepares you for injuries you can't predict, why muscle mass acts like insurance you carry with you, and how making training a habit — not a temporary phase — keeps life from slipping into "hard mode" as you age. This episode is about training for real life — not just the gym.

On episode 1 of Doing Well with Diabetes Season 2 Rob opens with a global nutritionist panel featuring three voices from three continents—Ravi Subramanian (India/Australia), Sally Anne Shirto (Zimbabwe/South Africa), and Marina Cavalin (Brazil). Each shares how diabetes shaped their lives, their careers, and the way they support others in their communities. The episode tracks the realities of type 1 and type 2 diabetes across vastly different health systems, highlighting gaps in education, access to insulin and supplies, food insecurity, misinformation, cultural nutrition challenges, and the emotional and physical toll of the condition worldwide. Through personal stories—from childhood polo matches with royalty to managing a teen's diabetes in an under-resourced setting—the conversation reinforces a central theme: education, movement, and community support remain the strongest levers for improving global health and wellbeing for people with diabetes.

Perimenopause doesn't have to mean fatigue, stubborn belly fat and training that suddenly stops “working”. In this episode, Angela sits down with exercise physiologist and nutrition scientist Dr Stacy Sims to unpack how women should really be training through their 40s, 50s and beyond - from sprint intervals and strength work to what actually happens to your muscles, joints and recovery as hormones shift. They dive into why most “zone 2” and VO₂ max advice is based on male data, how to use sprint interval training for mitochondrial health and metabolic flexibility, and why perimenopause and the first 5 years after menopause need a very different training and recovery strategy. You'll learn how to structure your week, how to periodise your year, and how to adapt popular classes like F45, CrossFit or OrangeTheory so they work for your physiology, not against it. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN • How training needs to change in perimenopause, early post-menopause and late post-menopause • The key differences between HIIT and sprint interval training - and how to do SIT safely • Why most zone 2 research is based on men, and what women should focus on instead • How to structure your week with sprints, lifting and just enough cardio • Smart ways to modify group classes for female physiology • How to tweak carbs and protein across your cycle and in the luteal phase for better recovery • The most useful evidence-backed supplements for midlife women • Why menopause hormone therapy is a supportive tool - but can't replace lifting, protein and good training Timestamps 00:00 New Science for Women's Training 04:40 Training in Perimenopause While You Still Have a Menstrual Cycle 08:10 Recovery, Morning Workouts & Rethinking the Cardio Habit 10:04 Zone 2 Myths for Women 16:59 The Moderate-Intensity “Black Hole” & Soul-Food Cardio 21:57 Sprint Interval Training (SIT) & Mitochondrial Health for Women 25:59 HIIT, Orange Theory & Making Group Classes Work for Your Hormones 31:40 Ovulation, “Power Phases” & Why Every Woman Must Track Her Cycle 35:03 Fueling the Luteal Phase: Carbs, Protein & Training 36:32 How Much HIIT & SIT Women Need in Perimenopause and Postmenopause 40:55 Periodizing Your Year for Midlife Women 43:40 Resistance Training for Women's Strength & Longevity 47:59 Supplements That Actually Support Women 53:34 Creatine, Whey Protein, Water Retention & Acne: What Women Need to Know 56:37 Menopause Hormone Therapy: A Helpful Tool But Not a Magic Body-Comp Fix VALUABLE RESOURCES A BIG thank you to our sponsors who make the show possible: • Timeline – Supercharge your energy and upgrade your mitochondria with Mitopure®

Nutritionist Leyla Muedin details a study on the effects of vitamins C and E supplementation in older women with sarcopenia. The study, published in the journal Medicine, found that combining 1000 mg of vitamin C and 335 mg of vitamin E with a 12-week resistance training program significantly improved muscle mass, strength, and certain blood parameters compared to a placebo group. The benefits were attributed to the alleviation of oxidative stress and inflammation. Leyla underscores the importance of adequate animal protein intake to optimize resistance training outcomes.
What if I told you that the moment you break your femur, you have a 30% chance of dying — and a 50% chance of never going home again? In this minisode, I share the most shocking moments from my conversation with orthopedic surgeon and longevity expert Dr. Vonda Wright, and why bone health is one of the biggest blind spots in women's health. Dr. Wright reveals that “the minute you fall and break this bone… you have a 30% chance of dying from the complications” — pneumonia, UTIs, bedsores — and “a 50% chance of not returning to the home where you came from.” We also break down her viral MRI comparison: the thigh of a sedentary 74-year-old vs. a 40-year-old vs. a 74-year-old triathlete — and how the active 74-year-old looks nearly identical to the 40-year-old. Aging is not the enemy; inaction is. If you're in your 30s, 40s, or beyond, this is your wake-up call:You can change the trajectory of your health if you start early enough.

Resistance training for aging nerves helps older adults improve steadiness, reaction time, and daily movement confidence by strengthening communication between nerves and muscles A four-week hand-grip training program from Syracuse University showed that simple, consistent resistance exercise helps speed up how quickly nerves send signals to muscles, even in older adults While the approach supports nerve health, it's not a cure for neuropathy or a guaranteed fall-prevention solution. Evidence remains early and based on short-term trials Do two to three resistance sessions each week at a moderate effort level. Include a short, five-minute grip routine to strengthen nerve signaling and improve coordination Pair your training with balanced, protein-rich meals to support muscle recovery and nerve function. Make sure to also prioritize safety — use proper form and stop if you feel pain, dizziness, or unusual tingling

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. From estrogen and inflammation to cholesterol, exercise, and sleep — this conversation exposes the real science behind heart and brain health. If you've ever wondered how to protect yourself from the #1 killer of women, this episode will change how you think about prevention, hormones, and longevity. *** Subscribe to The Neuro Experience for more conversations at the intersection of brain science and performance.
