In this Q&A episode, I answer questions about how to train for varied competitive distances without getting pulled in too many directions, explain my compelling stance on avoiding coffee (and NSAIDs), and give a plug for Dr. Doug McGuff’s “Big 5” total-body workout—a simple, highly effective way to stay strong with just one workout per week. I also share thoughts on how corporations like Whole Foods Market and PF Chang’s continue to sell plenty of crap despite their healthy reputations, discuss the magic of Zone 1 walking for building awesome aerobic fitness, and explain one of the best ways to tell if you’re doing too much strength training. Hint: you shouldn’t be getting sore. These are practical, everyday insights you can use right away to simplify your training, improve your health, and avoid some common mistakes. TIMESTAMPS: Jack, age 60, asks about his running goals. He says he is confused about what Brad says the parameters should be. [01:11] Jack has another question about coffee. Is having that stimulant in the morning helpful for your overall well-being as an athlete? [07:38] Another listener asks: Should I take my high intensity interval training, my strength training like Dr. Doug McGruff's Big Five and a basically walking approach to races? [15:45] Some comments from YouTube include this with Brad's comment: How long should you sprint to achieve all the health benefits? Brad's answer: All your entire life. [17:56] Monica initiates a discussion on the industrial seed oils being used rather than butter in restaurants and even Whole Foods and P.F. Changs. [18:50] Anthony asks about building up aerobic fitness by walking. Brad's response is thatthe aerobic base is built at the lower exercise intensities where your body has sufficient oxygen to develop and fine tune your mitochondrial function [27:00] Chad experiences soreness after trying to complete body weight exercises every other day to failure. Brad answers: If you have recurring soreness from your strength training regimen, you are most certainly overdoing it. [30:48] Dr. Doug McGruff's book, Body by Science, has a great regimen of five big workouts to do once a week. [32:22] Chad is also asking about his schedule for training. You want to have ebbs and flows in your schedule such that you have built in downtime and you always respect the importance of intuition and adjusting on the fly.

A breakthrough in inflammatory support has arrived in the natural health market. PEA, which stands for palmitoylethanolamide, is a naturally occurring fatty acid derivative made in the body and found in small amounts in foods. Several human studies have demonstrated that PEA has broad- spectrum pain-relieving properties, anti-inflammatory effects, and nerve protection.To help us unpack all the research and studies we have Dr. Stengler joining us today.In addition to authoring 30 books on health and several best-sellers such as “The Natural Physician's Healing Therapies,” “Prescription for Natural Cures,” “Prescription for Drug Alternatives,” and “Outside the Box Cancer Therapies,” Dr. Stengler has been published in several peer-reviewed medical journals such as The International Journal of Family & Community Medicine, Endocrinology & Metabolism International Journal, and Journal of Nutritional Health & Food Engineering.Dr. Stengler's, NMD. The newest book is called, The Holistic Guide to Gut Health. A comprehensive yet accessible approach to healing leaky gut and the many uncomfortable symptoms it causes. Dr Stengler is also the founder of The Stengler Center for Integrative Medicine.Talking Points:Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), is a naturally occurring fatty acid derivative made in the body and found in small amounts in foods.PEA was first discovered in 1957 by scientists at Merck Sharp & Dohme, who isolated it from egg yolk, peanut meal, and soy lecithin. They found that PEA had anti-inflammatory properties in guinea pigs.However, PEA's role as a potential therapeutic agent was not widely recognized until 1993, when Rita Levi-Montalcini and her colleagues published research that suggested PEA has anti-inflammatory properties. Levi-Montalcini's group termed PEA an autocoid local injury antagonist (ALIA), and suggested that it acts locally to counteract injury.Multiple studies have demonstrated that PEA improves all sorts of pain. For example, a 2023 analysis of 11 studies found that PEA improved pain of various conditions, including muscle and joints, nerves, gynecological, and digestive. In terms of joint pain, a high-quality study demonstrated that PEA significantly reduced adult joint pain compared to placebo. Moreover, 8 clinical trials demonstrated that PEA was effective for low back pain, sciatica, and carpal tunnel syndrome. Even migraine headache pain was shown in published research to be improved with PEA.Lipid mediators help to balance the immune, nervous, and endocrine systems, affecting pain pathways related to inflammation. But unfortunately, due to changing diets, many of us do not get the nutrition and activity we need to make enough PEA ourselves.Supplemental PEA, by Levagen+ is properly formulated for optimal bioavailability, 75% more bioavailable to cell receptors than dietary forms. Levagen+ liposomal delivery of PEA has been clinically studied and shows benefits in joint pain, nerve pain, migraine, infections, sleep, and cognitive function.Learn more about Dr. Mark Stengler, NMDLearn more about Emerald Labs PEA+ Levagen Use the code: Forever and get 20% off your order.

Send us a textAre you familiar with Vitamin B12 Deficiency Symptoms in IBD? Those with Crohn's & Ulcerative colitis are at higher risk of being deficient in Vitamin B12 - especially those with Crohn's that have inflammation in the ileum. If you've got Vitamin B12 deficiency you may feel tired or weak which is a classic feature of type of megaloblastic anemia. This is why it's so important to test appropriately and treat B12 deficiencies.In our practice, we like to look at beyond just standard serum B12 labs - which can sometimes not be representative of B12 status. In this video we go over more on this. Vitamin B12 Deficiency Symptoms:-Tiredness or weakness-Pale skin-Heart palpitations-Loss of appetite-Weight loss-Infertility-Numb or tingly hands and feet, a sign of nerve problems-Problems with balance-Depression-Confusion-Dementia-Poor memory-Soreness of the mouth or tongueVitamin B12 plays an important role in energy production and mood regulation. Sometimes people with IBD utilize more nutrients when there is inflammation and can also have a decrease in absorption of beneficial nutrients, like B12. We cover the signs of B12 deficiency and when to test for it.

They explain what DOMS actually is, why it happens, and how your muscles recover after a challenging workout. The team also discusses how Legacy designs programming to help you stay consistent even when you're feeling that post workout stiffness, including how alternating movement patterns, proper warm ups, and thoughtful exercise selection keep you training safely and effectively.

This episode gives you a look at how your body responds to strength training and how to keep showing up even when you're a little uncomfortable. If you've ever wondered whether you should train through soreness or how to manage it better, this episode gives you the clarity and confidence to keep moving forward.

Can you gain real muscle with isometric holds and little to no equipment? We break down a 2025 study comparing long-muscle-length isometric training to full range of motion isotonic work for quadriceps hypertrophy in trained lifters. We translate the science into simple setups you can use at home or in a hotel gym, explain why long-length positions matter, how to hit a true 10 RPE on static holds, and when to pair pre-exhaust sets with isometrics for serious growth without beating up your joints. What you'll learn: Isometric vs isotonic for hypertrophy and when isometrics can win How to find and hold true long-length positions for chest, back, quads, and hamstrings Making bodyweight isos hard enough to matter with 30-second max-effort holds Joint-friendly use cases for tendons, pain, deload weeks, and travel A plug-and-play isometric session you can try today Sample session: Pull: Chin-over-bar hold to failure, 4 sets Push: Handstand push-up iso 3 to 6 inches off the floor, to failure, 4 sets Quads: Wall sit at or just below parallel, 30-second max holds, 4 to 6 sets Unilateral: Rear-foot-elevated split-squat iso, back knee 1 inch off floor, 30 seconds, 4 sets per leg Optional overload: Pins, fixed bands, or plates on lap for wall sits Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 01:00 The 2025 study in plain English 03:30 Why long-length isometrics drive growth 06:50 Execution cues: 30s holds and true 10 RPE 08:30 Rehab and tendon applications 10:40 Pre-exhaust plus isos for hypertrophy 12:45 Minimal equipment programming ideas 15:10 Full sample isometric workout 20:20 Soreness, CNS load, and recovery 23:10 Movement skill benefits and coaching cues 27:45 Key takeaways and next steps Links: Free trial of our programming: https://garagegymathlete.com

This episode is a little different — I'm sharing a clip from one of my recent masterclasses where I busted some of the most common myths about strength training.These myths hold so many women back from building the strength, muscle, and confidence they want in midlife. In this episode, I explain why they aren't true — and what to do instead.The 5 myths I bust in this episode:Soreness and “feeling the burn” mean you had a good workoutLight weights and high reps will “tone” your muscles, while heavy weights make you bulkyCombo moves give you more bang for your buckConstant variety is better than repeating the same exercisesAny workout “with weights” builds muscleCome listen to why these don't hold up and the smarter ways to train instead.If this helped you, share it with 2 friends: that's how the show grows!Resources mentioned:Past episode on progressive overload: Episode #114Send me your thoughts

BT and Sal reacted with alarm to the news of Sauce Gardner's calf soreness, immediately linking it to the disturbing trend of Achilles injuries in the NFL, a topic they have been following closely. BT, in particular, expressed a high level of concern, seeing the calf issue as a potential precursor to a more severe Achilles tear, especially given the rash of similar injuries across sports and the precedent set by Aaron Rodgers's injury. The hosts, who were already concerned with the team's ability to stay healthy, now see this as a potentially significant setback for the Jets' defense. They are worried that even a minor injury could be a harbinger of a more serious problem for one of the team's most vital players.

In this episode, the Orange and Brown Talk team of Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe start by talking about the arm soreness that kept rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders out of team drills on Saturday. They discuss how Sanders' arm issue prevented him from participating in team drills and if it's a concern moving forward. They also explore Kenny Pickett's frustration with his hamstring injury, which prevents him from utilizing his mobility, a key differentiator in the quarterback battle. The conversation shifts to Joe Flacco, who seems to be gaining momentum in the competition. With injuries affecting the other quarterbacks, Flacco's experience and familiarity with the system position him as a comfortable choice for the coaching staff, especially with tough early-season matchups looming. The podcast also touches on Dillon Gabriel's performance, noting that he hasn't seized the opportunity to build momentum. Ultimately, the episode emphasizes that with the preseason games and joint practices against Carolina and Philadelphia approaching, time is running out for the quarterbacks to make their case for the starting role.

A breakthrough in inflammatory support has arrived in the natural health market. PEA, which stands for palmitoylethanolamide, is a naturally occurring fatty acid derivative made in the body and found in small amounts in foods. Several human studies have demonstrated that PEA has broad- spectrum pain-relieving properties, anti-inflammatory effects, and nerve protection.To help us unpack all the research and studies we have Dr. Stengler joining us today.In addition to authoring 30 books on health and several best-sellers such as “The Natural Physician's Healing Therapies,” “Prescription for Natural Cures,” “Prescription for Drug Alternatives,” and “Outside the Box Cancer Therapies,” Dr. Stengler has been published in several peer-reviewed medical journals such as The International Journal of Family & Community Medicine, Endocrinology & Metabolism International Journal, and Journal of Nutritional Health & Food Engineering.Dr. Stengler's, NMD. The newest book is called, The Holistic Guide to Gut Health. A comprehensive yet accessible approach to healing leaky gut and the many uncomfortable symptoms it causes. Dr Stengler is also the founder of The Stengler Center for Integrative Medicine.Talking Points:Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), is a naturally occurring fatty acid derivative made in the body and found in small amounts in foods. PEA was first discovered in 1957 by scientists at Merck Sharp & Dohme, who isolated it from egg yolk, peanut meal, and soy lecithin. They found that PEA had anti-inflammatory properties in guinea pigs.However, PEA's role as a potential therapeutic agent was not widely recognized until 1993, when Rita Levi-Montalcini and her colleagues published research that suggested PEA has anti-inflammatory properties. Levi-Montalcini's group termed PEA an autocoid local injury antagonist (ALIA), and suggested that it acts locally to counteract injury.Multiple studies have demonstrated that PEA improves all sorts of pain. For example, a 2023 analysis of 11 studies found that PEA improved pain of various conditions, including muscle and joints, nerves, gynecological, and digestive. In terms of joint pain, a high-quality study demonstrated that PEA significantly reduced adult joint pain compared to placebo. Moreover, 8 clinical trials demonstrated that PEA was effective for low back pain, sciatica, and carpal tunnel syndrome. Even migraine headache pain was shown in published research to be improved with PEA.Lipid mediators help to balance the immune, nervous, and endocrine systems, affecting pain pathways related to inflammation. But unfortunately, due to changing diets, many of us do not get the nutrition and activity we need to make enough PEA ourselves.Supplemental PEA, by Levagen+ is properly formulated for optimal bioavailability, 75% more bioavailable to cell receptors than dietary forms. Levagen+ liposomal delivery of PEA has been clinically studied and shows benefits in joint pain, nerve pain, migraine, infections, sleep, and cognitive function.Learn more about Dr. Mark Stengler, NMDLearn more about Emerald Labs PEA+ Levagen Use the code: Forever and get 20% off your order.

What if everything you've believed about soreness is wrong? How surprised would you be if the best strength training left you feeling energized, not exhausted? In this episode, I shed light on muscle soreness. Most people think a workout is only good if you're sore afterwards. Not true! You'll learn why soreness isn't a sign of success but actually a big problem, especially if you have an autoimmune condition, and which exercises contribute more to soreness.Muscle soreness is one of three things. First, soreness could be from doing a new exercise, not being used to specific movements, or doing too much. Two, too much time under tension in the eccentric loading phase of exercises. You're either doing too many reps or too many eccentric dominant moves in general. Or third, improper nutrition around workouts. When looking at impressive workouts on social media, for example, it's important to remember that the impressive workouts aren't what those people did to get there. They worked toward that goal. Some workouts make you more sore than others. There is a significant link between muscle soreness, systemic inflammation, and the power of exercise selection. Less is more! Your workout doesn't need to make you incredibly sore to have been a great one.DOMS, or delayed onset muscle soreness, is actually related to inflammation. Muscle soreness is “damage,” but remember, not all inflammation and damage is bad. It's when there is too much inflammation that it becomes a problem. Women who struggle with autoimmune issues want to avoid workouts that cause excessive soreness, because they're already susceptible to being sore, and they're already managing the inflammation related to their condition.Taking all of this into consideration, wanting a program for myself not to over-fatigue my body, I created Strength Without Stress. It's a collection of exercises that are concentric-based, where maximal load is when the muscle is in a shortened position, allowing you to lift more without soreness. Working smarter, and not harder, is the key to striking the right balance in your workouts. Emphasis is determined by the time spent under tension, and if the targeted muscle is in a lengthened, stretched, or shortened position. Once I started masterminding my workouts so that I didn't do too many eccentric exercises, where the muscle is in a lengthened position at maximal load and force, everything changed. A concentric contraction is when a muscle shortens as it produces force. It shortens to overcome the weight load to cause movement. A great example of this is a bicep curl. In general, concentric contractions don't cause soreness. An eccentric contraction is the opposite. It's when the muscle is lengthening as it produces force, and these are the special exercises that cause soreness. A great example here is a squat where you're lowering down to the ground and you're resisting the load that you're holding, and then you're returning to a standing position.So the exercises that are eccentric, dominant, and therefore more taxing to the muscle, and therefore tend to cause soreness, are barbell back squats, lunges of any kind, Bulgarian split squats, Romanian deadlift, good mornings, bench press or a bicep chest press, chest fly, overhead tricep extension, supine hamstring curl, and push ups. My Strength Without Stress program combines all of my favorite concentric exercises with just the bare minimum eccentric exercises. Remember, soreness isn't the goal. Finding the perfect collection of exercises where you can actually increase your weight loads consistently over time, so that you experience intense moments during a set is. Strength training should make you feel great the next day, not knock you down!If you want access to my 4-week Strength Without Stress program for...

In episode 188, we delve into the concept of Quality Training Volume, discussing the balance between sufficient volume for progress and avoiding unproductive fatigue. We explore the transition from low to high volume training, and touch on individual variability and frequency in optimizing training outcomes. We highlight the nuances of training adaptations, soreness, and the impact of training age on volume tolerance. We wrap up with a section on the need for a balanced approach to training, where quality trumps quantity, and how to effectively transition between different training phases without losing gains.Timestamps:00:00 Introduction to Quality Volume03:25 Personal Updates and Training Journeys08:29 Defining Quality Volume11:25 Transitioning Training Programs15:07 Progressing Through Training Cycles18:59 Soreness and Training Adaptations21:27 Individual Variability in Training Volume24:10 The Role of Frequency in Training31:04 Conclusion and Key Takeaways32:01 Understanding Volume and Frequency in Training36:02 The Risks of Junk Volume and Injury39:03 Managing Recovery and Training Volume43:13 The Role of Burnout Exercises in Training49:13 Transitioning Between Training Phases53:02 Defining Junk Volume and Its Implications Work 1:1 with Aaron ⬇️https://strakernutritionco.com/nutrition-coaching-apply-now/Done For You Client Check-In System for Coaches ⬇️https://strakernutritionco.com/macronutrient-reporting-check-in-template/Paragon Training Methods Programming ⬇️https://paragontrainingmethods.comFollow Bryan's Evolved Training Systems Programming ⬇️https://evolvedtrainingsystems.comFind Us on Social Media ⬇️IG | @Eat.Train.ProsperIG | @bryanboorsteinIG | @aaron_strakerYT | EAT TRAIN PROSPER PODCAST

He reassures that some post-workout soreness is normal and explores the mixed evidence on muscle scraping techniques like the Graston Technique for relieving stiffness. Quotes to ponder: "Pain is dangerous. Discomfort is where you get better." "The bottom line with muscle scraping is that if it's not causing harm, and it seems to help, then go for it."

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...

Amy Hudson and Dr. James Fisher discuss the importance of range of motion in strength training and how it impacts performance, injury prevention, and long-term joint health. They cover why strength varies throughout a movement, the dangers of locking out your joints, and the myths about extreme ranges of motion. Tune in to hear expert insights on training smarter, maximizing muscle engagement, and protecting your body for the long run. Dr. Fisher starts by defining range of motion and why it's important for strength training. He explains that range of motion isn't just about flexibility or stretching. It's about how far and in what direction you can move a joint or muscle, which directly impacts strength, performance, and injury prevention. Dr. Fisher explains how strength varies throughout a movement and why it matters. Muscles aren't equally strong at all points in a movement. They are weaker in the fully-lengthened and fully-shortened positions, but much stronger in the middle. Understanding this helps you train smarter and avoid injury. Amy highlights the strength curve and why you're stronger in some positions more than others. How to avoid injury by understanding weak points in your range of motion. According to Dr. Fisher, every movement has points where your muscles are naturally weaker. Loading too much weight in these positions increases the risk of strain or injury. Dr. Fisher on the most important habit for protecting your joints--never lock them out during lifts. When you fully extend your joints under load, you shift stress from your muscles to your bones and ligaments. Keeping a slight bend in your knees and elbows ensures that your muscles, not your joints, handle the weight. Amy explains how keeping muscles loaded every second of an exercise maximizes gains. Understand that pausing or locking out during a lift gives your muscles a break and shifts the load away from them. Keeping tension on the muscle throughout the movement ensures continuous engagement, leading to better strength and muscle development. Dr. Fisher explains how rushing through reps reduces their effectiveness. Moving in a slow, controlled manner keeps the muscles engaged and working harder, leading to better strength and endurance over time. According to Dr. Fisher, younger people may get away with using extreme ranges of motion, but over time, this can wear down joints and connective tissues. Training with a more controlled range of motion helps maintain joint health for the long run. Amy explains how going too far back in a lift weakens tendons and ligaments. When you move too far into a stretch during a lift, you stop effectively working the targeted muscle and instead place excessive stress on tendons and ligaments. This weakens them over time and increases the risk of injury. Many people assume soreness means a workout was effective, but that's not necessarily true. Soreness can indicate muscle fatigue or even joint stress, so it's not the best way to measure progress. Amy and Dr. Fisher agree that a well-designed workout should challenge your muscles, not leave you in pain for days. Your personal trainer's role is to design a program that helps you get stronger while keeping your joints safe and your body functional. Amy and Dr. Fisher discuss how training with joint health in mind ensures you stay strong, mobile, and pain-free as you get older. Dr. Fisher debunks the myth that you need extreme motion to build muscle. Some bodybuilders and personal trainers believe that using a larger range of motion leads to more muscle growth, but research shows that safer, controlled ranges are just as effective. You don't need extreme movement to see results. The key is maintaining proper muscle tension and control. Dr. Fisher's top tip for rehab and preventing muscle loss. If you're recovering from an injury, immobilizing the joint completely can lead to muscle loss. Even small muscle contractions help maintain strength and promote healing. Amy's advice for gym-goers and fitness trainers: When working out, make sure your movement stays within a safe and effective range. Proper guidance helps prevent injury and ensures that your muscles—not your joints—are doing the work. Mentioned in This Episode: The Exercise Coach - Get 2 Free Sessions!
