With the international soccer tournament kicking off in Foxboro, Kendra talked with Chef Allen Campbell, one of the country's leading experts in performance nutrition. He shared how elite athletes fuel their bodies for peak performance, recovery, and long-term health—and how everyday fans can apply those same principles to their own meals. Plus, he offered tips for healthier game-day eating without sacrificing flavor.

In this fascinating episode of the Optimal Protein Podcast, Vanessa Spina is joined by Dr. Fernando Naclerio, Professor in Strength Training and Sports Nutrition at the University of Greenwich and Centre Lead for the Centre for Exercise Activity and Rehabilitation. Vanessa and Dr. Naclerio dive into a brand new meta-analysis comparing higher-carb and lower-carb diets when calories and protein are matched. While both approaches improved body composition, the low-carb diets produced greater reductions in fat mass, fasting glucose, fasting insulin, and triglycerides, along with increases in HDL. This conversation explores why not all weight loss is fat loss — and why consuming too many carbohydrates during a calorie deficit may, in certain conditions, shift the body toward burning more lean mass instead of body fat. They also discuss how to structure protein, carbohydrates, and fats for better body composition, why carbohydrate tolerance depends on activity level, the importance of resistance training, keto adaptation, meal timing, fasting, protein distribution, and why protecting muscle should be the priority during fat loss.

Urolithin A (MitoPure)--Mitophagy, Muscle Recovery, Immunity, and Skin Health: Dr. Brad Currier, clinical trial manager at Timeline, a Swiss biotech company, details urolithin A (MitoPure), a postbiotic derived from pomegranate precursors that most people cannot produce due to microbiome differences. Currier explains MitoPure's mechanism—stimulating mitophagy to recycle dysfunctional mitochondria—and reviews evidence from multiple clinical trials. He reveals a Sports Medicine study in elite male distance runners showing reduced creatine kinase and lower perceived exertion, suggesting improved recovery, plus trials in middle-aged and older adults showing improvements in strength, six-minute walk test, and VO2 max at 500 mg–1 g doses. They also cover a Nature Aging immune study reporting rejuvenation of stem-like CD8 T cells with improved mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation, ongoing research directions, supplement quality/testing for athletes, and topical urolithin A skincare trials and partnerships, including L'Oréal Lancôme.

We have a great show planned today and will talk about why there has been a significant rise in people of all ages using Creatine. 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:Is creatine only useful for resistance / power type activities?There are a variety of athletic events, not just resistance/power activities, which may benefit from creatine supplementation.-Creatine supplementation with carbohydrate or carbohydrate and protein has been reported to promote greater muscle glycogen storage than carbohydrate supplementation alone.-May reduce muscle damage and/or enhance recovery from intense exercise.-Individuals supplementing their diet with creatine experienced less muscle damage, inflammation, and muscle soreness in response to running 30-km as well as during 4-weeks of intensified training.-There is evidence that athletes who supplement with creatine during training experience fewer musculoskeletal injuries, accelerated recovery time from injury and less muscle atrophy after immobilization.-Creatine supplementation (with or without glycerol) has been reported to help athletes hyper-hydrate and thereby enhance tolerance to exercise in the heat-There is evidence from animal models that creatine supplementation is neuroprotective and can reduce the severity of spinal cord injury, cerebral ischemia, and concussion/traumatic brain injury. This evidence was so compelling that the International Society of Sports Nutrition recommended that athletes engaged in sports that have a potential for concussion and/or spinal cord injury take creatine for its neuroprotective effects.Learn more about Dr. StenglerLearn more about Emerald Labs Creatine Health

Calling those who are trying to lose a lil weight and not seeing the results. This one is for you.If you feel like you are doing “everything right” but the scale is not moving… it can get pretty fricking frustrating pretty darn quickly. Sound familiar?You might be training consistently, making better food choices, and putting in real effort. But fat loss is not just about effort. It is about accuracy and consistency over time.The convergence of strategy, consistency, habits, and routine behaviours. As a Sports Dietitian, this is something I see all the time. People are close. Very close sometimes. But a few small bottlenecks are enough to slow or completely stall progress.The good news is that once you identify them, they are usually very fixable. Today is not about the fix itself (that is individualised and requires working closely with you), but instead about identifying reasons and knowing where to next. In this episode, I share five of the most common fat loss bottlenecks that might be holding you back (that you might not even be clocking). DISCLAIMER: The information in this video is for guidance only and is not individualised advice for you!

Save 20% on all Nuzest Products WORLDWIDE with the code MIKKIPEDIA at www.nuzest.co.nz, www.nuzest.com.au or www.nuzest.comThis week on the podcast, Mikki speaks to returning guest Associate Professor José Areta to unpack one of the most debated topics in sports nutrition: energy availability, and what really happens when intake drops below demand.José takes a clear, physiology-first approach to explaining what energy availability actually means, why it has become such a dominant concept in exercise science, and whether the current narrative has become overly black-and-white. They explore his recent study examining the effects of a short, aggressive energy deficit, including what happens not just at a whole-body level, but deep within muscle tissue itself.In this conversation, they discuss the hormonal and metabolic responses to rapid weight loss, surprising findings around mitochondrial protein synthesis, and what changes in muscle and connective tissue might actually represent. José also reframes energy deficit as a biological stressor — one that may be adaptive in the right context — and challenges assumptions around how common and harmful low energy availability truly is.This is a nuanced, evidence-driven discussion that cuts through the noise and offers a more balanced perspective on energy deficit, performance, and long-term health.José L Areta currently works as an associate professor in Sports Nutrition and Metabolism at the School of Sport and Exercise Sciences at LJMU.José examines how nutrition interacts with exercise to shape both performance and health, with a focus on macronutrient timing and composition, the role of supplements in optimisation, and the hormonal and metabolic responses to energy restriction.José can be found at:https://profiles.ljmu.ac.uk/13460-jose-areta Paper: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41182317/Previous appearance https://podcast.mikkiwilliden.com/124  Curranz Supplement: Use code MIKKIPEDIA to get 20% off your first order - go to www.curranz.co.nz  or www.curranz.co.uk to order yours NZ listeners - save 10% off Calocurb by using the code Mikkipedia10 at www.calocurb.co.nzContact Mikki:https://mikkiwilliden.com/https://www.facebook.com/mikkiwillidennutritionhttps://www.instagram.com/mikkiwilliden/https://linktr.ee/mikkiwilliden

Should I avoid XYZ?The question of the day, the week, the month…question of the ages seems like.So what is the truth here? Because food dichotomy in the nutrition space is a real thing and not often for good reason.There is too much black and white thinking around food and not enough of that nuanced grey area, you know. In this episode, I dive into the subject of food exclusion and whether or not there is good reason to avoid full food groups or specific foods if you are trying to become healthier and achieve your goals. DISCLAIMER: The information in this video is for guidance only and is not individualised advice for you!

To be able to lose or not be able to lose (while drinking alcohol), for that is the question.Most people know that drinking a lot is not a recipe for weight loss and that alcohol can not only put on weight but stop you burning fat.So why is this?

The pre-race carb-load is a right of passage in the sport of distance running, but in recent years runners' obsession with carbohydrates has reached a level of fanaticism that puts other running trends to shame.  A growing canon of research is rewriting what we thought we knew about the body's ability to process fuel during hard exercise, and with some recent studies going so far as to advocate for nearly 5 times the carb intake previously deemed effective, we've entered into what many are calling a full-blown “carbolution”.  Add to this an ever-expanding selection of goos, chews, and specially-formulated drink mixes and what used to be the domain of elite athletes has now become the norm for those serious about maximizing their race day performance at every distance, with runners of all abilities chewing, slurping, and guzzling a growing buffet of sugary rocket fuel.  This week on The Shakeout Podcast we welcome science writer and lifelong runner Alex Hutchinson back to the show to sink his teeth into the research fueling the hype and find out whether the “carbolution” is just another running fad or if that mountain of pasta the day before a marathon truly is just the tip of the carbohydrate iceberg.

Most of us who exercise are doing it because we want to feel better. So why does the sports nutrition industry keep handing us products that look like they belong in a laboratory? If you have ever mid-run reached for a neon gel and thought, "Is this actually good for me?" — this episode is for you. In this conversation on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, guest host Sana sits down with Anouck Grau and Christopher Bellamy, co-founders of Yanaa — a French real-food sports nutrition startup challenging the ultra-processed status quo. They explore why the industry got it so wrong, why a healthy gut matters more than any single supplement, and why the food you eat during sport should taste like a human made it.   About the Guests: Anouck Grau is a former professional snowboarder, certified holistic nutritionist, and chef based in Annecy, France. She co-founded Yanaa after years of watching elite athletes fuel themselves with products she refused to touch. Christopher Bellamy is a biodesigner, engineer, and former elite triathlete who previously worked on electric cars and recyclable shoes. His systems-thinking background shapes how Yanaa approaches both product science and sustainability. Together, they lead Yanaa (yanaa.food) — a real-food endurance nutrition brand making chef-cooked savory purees from organic legumes, cooked in Provence, and tested by professional athletes. Key Takeaways: A survey of 592 athletes found that 78% believe existing sports nutrition is unhealthy, 77% find it unpleasant to eat, and 75% want savory options. The industry knows, and still has not moved — because ultra-processed products are cheap to make, easy to market, and profitable to sell. Food legislation in Europe is largely based on studies validated in 2006. This means real, whole foods like vegetables and legumes — which offer broad nutritional diversity rather than high concentrations of one nutrient — legally cannot be marketed the same way processed products can. The system inadvertently favors junk. Real food genuinely performs. Studies comparing energy gels to raisins, mashed potato, and bananas found no difference in athlete performance — and in some cases, real food produced lower inflammation and better flavour tolerance. Your body only burns significant carbohydrates at high intensity (roughly 65-75% VO2 max sustained for hours). Most recreational athletes are not there most of the time. Eating like an Olympic champion on a Sunday jog is unnecessary and potentially harmful. Gut health is the foundation of athletic performance. If your digestive system is compromised, you cannot absorb the nutrition you are consuming — no matter how well-designed the product is. A healthy athlete absorbs better, performs better, and recovers better. Blindly copying what professional athletes eat is a mistake. They have private chefs, gut analysis, and medical support. Without that infrastructure, consuming their fuelling strategy can do more harm than good.

[07:30] The Gap Nobody Talks About — Anouck reflects on growing up with real food and training as a professional snowboarder, and why she never once touched a gel. [13:00] Why the System Stayed Broken — Sugar is cheap, sterilization is easy, and legislation from 2006 still governs what can be marketed. Chris maps the structural problem. [19:30] The Business of Simplification — Why humans are wired to want convenience and a simple input-output model for nutrition — and how the industry exploits that. [26:00] What Science Actually Says — Studies on raisins vs. gels, mashed potato vs. energy packs, and banana vs. recovery drinks. The results will surprise you. [34:00] Building Yanaa — The goat cheese disaster, the prototype that made Chris's brother think he'd been handed vomit, and why following their gut (literally) led to something real. [41:30] Brand as Values, Not Just Marketing — Why Yanaa chose warmth over aggression, fun over performance metrics, and sustainability over short-term margins.   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

Iron Radio: AI's Impact on Coaching & Peer Review, Urolithin A in Sports Nutrition, and Cold Water Immersion Updates On Iron Radio, hosts Dr. Lonnie Lowery and Dr. Mike T. Nelson discuss how AI may speed content distribution, assist with business tasks, and potentially replace some lower-level coaches while still lacking context for peer review and research interpretation, raising concerns about regulation, healthcare profit motives, and data-center resource demands. They revisit urolithin A (a gut microbiota–derived metabolite linked to mitochondrial effects), referencing a 2025 Frontiers in Nutrition paper and Mike's personal and client experiences, noting modest perceived recovery/HRV benefits, high cost, and possible responder differences due to gut conversion. Mike also summarizes a broad review on cold exposure and metabolism across organ systems, highlighting mixed recovery data, evidence that immediate post-hypertrophy cold-water immersion can reduce muscle protein synthesis via reduced blood flow, lack of clear anti-inflammatory marker changes, and practical guidance based on season, logistics, and athlete preference. 00:00 Welcome to Iron Radio 01:13 Mike's Vegas Mastermind 01:30 AI for Content Creation 03:18 AI Limits and Assumptions 03:57 Peer Review and Academia 05:42 Jobs at Risk in Healthcare 10:23 AI in Coaching and Diets 13:10 Regulation and Data Centers 15:24 AGI Race and Safety 17:36 Urolithin A Research Overview 20:49 Mike's Experience with UA 22:33 Gut Conversion Variability 22:58 Iron Radio Feed Update 24:10 Free Daily Newsletter 24:48 New Supplements Book 25:57 Postbiotics and Skepticism 28:04 Safety First Testing 29:00 Cold Exposure Review 31:06 Hypertrophy Tradeoffs 35:31 In Season Ice Baths 40:03 Measuring Recovery Reality 43:15 Whole Body Effects 45:51 Wrap Up and Disclaimer Donate to the show via PayPal HERE.You can also join Dr Mike's Insider Newsletter for more info on how to add muscle, improve your performance and body comp - all without destroying your health, go to www.ironradiodrmike.com Thank you!Phil, Jerrell, Mike T, and Lonnie

In this episode, I reveal the one sentence you may be telling yourself every morning that is quietly sabotaging your weight loss by triggering cortisol, raising blood sugar, and keeping your body in fat storage mode. As a PhD in sports nutrition and metabolic health, I break down the science behind stress hormones, belly fat, insulin, and leptin resistance, and show you how shifting your self-talk can lower stress, stabilize hormones, and finally unlock sustainable fat loss.I just released another video that walks you through exactly how to lose weight rapidly without wrecking your hormones or crashing your energy.Watch it here: ⁠⁠⁠https://youtu.be/IRLOzby5FBQ⁠⁠⁠ GET A CUSTOMIZED WEIGHT LOSS PLAN: Have a free 1-on-1 call with our Expert Nutritionists

We have a great show planned today and will talk about why there has been a significant rise in people of all ages using Creatine. 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:Is creatine only useful for resistance / power type activities?There are a variety of athletic events, not just resistance/power activities, which may benefit from creatine supplementation.-Creatine supplementation with carbohydrate or carbohydrate and protein has been reported to promote greater muscle glycogen storage than carbohydrate supplementation alone.-May reduce muscle damage and/or enhance recovery from intense exercise.-Individuals supplementing their diet with creatine experienced less muscle damage, inflammation, and muscle soreness in response to running 30-km as well as during 4-weeks of intensified training.-There is evidence that athletes who supplement with creatine during training experience fewer musculoskeletal injuries, accelerated recovery time from injury and less muscle atrophy after immobilization.-Creatine supplementation (with or without glycerol) has been reported to help athletes hyper-hydrate and thereby enhance tolerance to exercise in the heat-There is evidence from animal models that creatine supplementation is neuroprotective and can reduce the severity of spinal cord injury, cerebral ischemia, and concussion/traumatic brain injury. This evidence was so compelling that the International Society of Sports Nutrition recommended that athletes engaged in sports that have a potential for concussion and/or spinal cord injury take creatine for its neuroprotective effects.Learn more about Dr. StenglerLearn more about Emerald Labs Creatine Health

With so many new sports nutrition brands and supplements hitting the market each year, how do you know what's actually worth using?In Episode 132 of The Eat for Endurance Podcast, I'm joined by Sports Dietitian Meghann Featherstun of Featherstone Nutrition for a timely conversation about sports nutrition trends for 2026. After attending The Running Event (TRE), Meghann brings a behind-the-scenes perspective on where performance fueling seems to be headed, which products stood out, and what felt overhyped.Meghann also wrote an entire blog post on her findings, which you can check out here. In this episode, Meghann and I discuss:What to look for when choosing a gel, chew, sports drink, or other sports fueling product How there's no one "right" way to create a training or race fueling planThe biggest sports nutrition trends showing up across brands right now, including changing amounts of carbs, caffeine, and sodiumNon-US sports nutrition brands that caught her eyeWhy high carb fueling is not appropriate for all athletesThe importance of being intentional with supplementationAnd so much more!

Iron Radio: Nutrition Knowledge, Diet Quality, and Where Athletes Get Their Info On Iron Radio, hosts Coach Phil Stevens and Dr. Lonnie Lowery discuss how heavy training taxes recovery, then focus on athlete nutrition knowledge and diet quality using a Current Developments in Nutrition editorial summarizing six articles. They note adolescents often get nutrition info from social media, with athletes valuing credible sources more and viewing food as fuel, while non-athletes see food as social. They discuss YouTube as a major information source and how expert content may lack trust-building communication compared to non-experts. A study in Ireland found sensory appeal as the top driver of food choice even in active populations. Data from Florida State Division I cross-country athletes showed inadequate carbs, calcium, and vitamin D, but adequate protein, fat, and iron, alongside poor overall diet quality. They also cover Iranian bodybuilders' supplement use patterns and debate how veteran strength athletes simplify supplement choices. 00:00 Show Intro and Hosts 00:35 Meet Prep and Big Lifts 01:30 Squat vs Deadlift Grind 03:01 Risk and Willpower 04:00 Lonnie Background and Credentials 05:01 Today Topic and Upcoming Guests 06:39 Athletes Nutrition Knowledge 08:12 Social Media and Mentors 10:23 YouTube Experts vs Influencers 12:11 Taste Drives Food Choices 14:17 Athlete Fuel Mindset 15:44 Learning to Eat for Gains 16:47 Taste Preferences Get Skewed 17:38 New Podcast Feed 18:48 Mike Nelson Newsletter 19:27 Supplements Book Update 20:35 Runner Diet Quality Study 23:12 Elite Sport vs Health 27:27 Bodybuilder Supplement Habits 31:59 Old School Protein Tales 34:29 Athletes More Mindful 35:04 Wrap Up and Disclaimer Donate to the show via PayPal HERE.You can also join Dr Mike's Insider Newsletter for more info on how to add muscle, improve your performance and body comp - all without destroying your health, go to www.ironradiodrmike.com Thank you!Phil, Jerrell, Mike T, and Lonnie

If Glanbia wanted to further increase Optimum Nutrition and ISOPURE brand household penetration, should it focus more on brand marketing or production innovation? Glanbia Plc (LON:GLB) is a multibillion-dollar global nutrition company that's currently comprised of three divisions that span across the B2B supply chain (i.e. Health & Nutrition and Dairy Nutrition) and branded products (Performance Nutrition). “Health & Nutrition” is a leading global ingredients solutions business, providing value added ingredient and flavor solutions to a range of attractive, high-growth end markets. In 2025, revenue was $629 million, which increased by 11.5% YoY. “Dairy Nutrition” is the number one producer of whey protein isolate…and provides a wide range of dairy and functional protein solutions. In 2025, revenue was $1.52 billion, which increased by 2.8%. The brands in the Glanbia Performance Nutrition portfolio include; Optimum Nutrition, BSN, think!, ISOPURE, and Amazing Grass. In 2025, Glanbia Performance Nutrition revenue was $1.8 billion, which decreased 0.9% YoY. Additionally, I'll dive deeper into Glanbia Performance Nutrition geographical, sales channel, product format, and categorial performance. As part of the branded products portfolio part of the group-wide transformation program announced last November, Glanbia completed the sale of SlimFast and Body & Fit. Optimum Nutrition, which was the initial M&A transaction in 2008 that created the GPN division, now represents 75% of the total revenue. In 2025, Optimum Nutrition generated revenue of approximately $1.35 billion. The other largest GPN brand is ISOPURE, which is a premium high-protein, low-carb brand grounded in purity. And I've loudly proclaimed for several years that “ISOPURE had arguably the largest untapped upside of the entire GPN portfolio.” In fact, I've said it had billion-dollar global brand potential. But with the two largest brands within GPN growing in 2025, what must be solved for Optimum Nutrition and ISOPURE to reach their greatest ambition level. Therefore, our examination will focus on household penetration, as it's often used as a key performance indicator that helps quantify brand health and growth opportunities for CPG brands. Essentially, higher household penetration proves velocity, making retailers more likely to stock a brand, thus increasing all commodity volume, while selling more items to these new households increases total distribution points. Moreover, product innovation and brand marketing act as the "fuel" to this “primary growth engine," accelerating the relationship between household penetration, ACV, and TDPs.

Dr. Bill Schindler joins Airey Bros Radio (ABR 438) for a deep-dive conversation that connects Jersey Shore wrestling culture to ancestral nutrition, anthropology, and real-world health.Bill is Jersey Shore bred — a Red Bank Regional wrestler who went on to compete at Ohio State and The College of New Jersey (TCNJ) — before becoming a leading voice in ancestral food systems. He's the author of Eat Like a Human, founder of The Modern Stone Age Kitchen, and a researcher/educator helping families, athletes, and coaches rethink what “healthy eating” actually means.We talk wrestling weight cuts, the mental side of food, why modern diets wreck digestion, and Bill's core idea: humans aren't omnivores by biology — we're omnivores by technology (fire, fermentation, traditional preparation, and bioavailability). Bill also shares practical takeaways for wrestlers, endurance athletes, parents, and coaches, including why he'd consider keto for wrestling and how to start small with changes that compound.In this episode:Jersey Shore wrestling roots (Red Bank Regional, Ohio State, TCNJ)Weight cuts, food fear, binge cycles, and athlete nutrition mistakes“Eat Like a Human” fundamentals: fermentation, bioavailability, real foodSimple family changes that actually last (start with the foods you eat most)Keto, carnivore, and why context + culture matter in nutritionInsects, organ meats, and pushing comfort zones the smart wayWine additives, traditional fermentation, and “food as a system”

Is fasting really the best way to lose fat — or is there a smarter, more strategic approach? In this masterclass episode, Vanessa introduces a powerful new concept: Protein Fasting — a structured approach using PSMF (Protein-Sparing Modified Fast) days to optimize fat loss, suppress appetite naturally, protect muscle, and potentially tap into fasting-like cellular signaling.

I survived 25 years trapped in the diet industry, chronic cardio, fat-free foods, calorie restriction, and metabolic damage, and in this episode I share what actually works for sustainable weight loss, metabolic health, and stubborn belly fat over 40. As a PhD nutritionist and registered dietitian, I break down how to reverse metabolic slowdown, balance hormones, improve insulin sensitivity, and finally lose weight without starving yourself.Ready to stop guessing and get real results?

“Healthy, happy, and balanced athletes are the ones that make it across the finish line again and again throughout a long career and leave a legacy.” — Jessie DigginsJessie Diggins is currently competing in her fourth and final Winter Olympics in Milan-Cortina. I interviewed her back in January 2021, just one week after her historic Tour de Ski win on some of the same Italian mountains she's skiing on now. Since our recording, Jessie has become the most accomplished cross-country skier from the US, with 4 Olympic medals (she won her 4th one today!), 3 World Cup overall titles, 7 World Championship medals, and countless other accolades. Even though it's no longer Covid times (thank goodness), this powerful conversation about fueling for joy, resilience, and longevity in sport remains just as relevant and important today. ---In Episode 37, I'm honored to be joined by cross-country skier and Olympic gold medalist Jessie Diggins. She is not only dominating her sport, but also using her platform to promote healthy fueling, body positivity, and the importance of enjoying food without restriction.Many fans first fell in love with Jessie during the 2018 Winter Olympics, where she and Kikkan Randall won the first-ever American gold medal in cross-country skiing. At the time of this interview, Jessie had also just won the Tour de Ski, becoming the first American to claim the title.In this conversation, Jessie challenges the idea that leanness leads to success, reminding athletes that “Skinny doesn't win races. Fast wins races.” She emphasizes that fueling well, prioritizing health, and embracing joy are essential to reaching the start line ready to race.

This week we welcome back protein and fat-loss researcher Dr. Bill Campbell to unpack early findings from what may be the largest menopause fitness survey to date, designed to finally study women who actively train. We dive into what thousands of fit midlife women report about calorie and protein intake, hormone therapy use, and the widely felt—but poorly studied—experience of weight-loss resistance during peri- and postmenopause. The conversation also explores why hormone therapy use appears far higher in fitness-engaged women than in national estimates, how muscle quality and power may decline even before we notice muscle loss, and why high-intensity interval work appears especially promising for reducing visceral fat.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.
