Endocrinologist Joy Wu says that osteoporosis can affect more than half of women and a quarter of men over 50 – often without symptoms until a fracture changes everything, leading to a loss of mobility and independence. Wu explains why bones weaken with age and how to strengthen them through exercise and smart medicine. Her lab is exploring innovative drugs and turning skin cells into new bone-forming osteoblasts. We're delving into the great mystery of building new bone and making old bones stronger, Wu tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

In this Q+A episode, we're diving deep into all things cardio and running. From choosing the best cardio modality for your goals, to navigating heart rate training without overcomplicating it, this conversation tackles what actually matters when it comes to building endurance and improving performance. We also discuss how to manage exercise-induced asthma, the benefits of cardio during pregnancy, and how to get started if you're new to running or just getting back into it. Whether you're deciding between treadmill or outdoor runs, trying to balance strength training with cardio, or wondering how nutrition and warmups factor in, we've got practical, real-world advice. Plus, we share insights on the mental side of running—and why yes, you absolutely can be a runner, no matter your body type or experience level.

Send us a textWhy does weight feel harder to manage during menopause—and where did all your muscle go? In this episode, we're unpacking one of the most frustrating (and misunderstood) parts of midlife: how hormonal shifts affect your metabolism, fat storage, and strength. Spoiler: it's not just about eating less or doing more cardio.You'll learn:What really changes in your body during menopauseWhy muscle is your metabolism's best friendThe truth behind “inevitable” weight gainHow insulin resistance impacts energy, cravings, and belly fatWhat actually works: protein, strength training, and smarter habits—not perfectionWe'll bust the biggest myths and give you simple, doable next steps to reclaim your strength and feel more like you again.

Being in “good shape” doesn't just mean changing your diet in pursuit of unrealistic standards of thinness; it means challenging your body to be more capable today than it was yesterday. In recent years, weight lifting has been catching on as a primary exercise focus for both men and women who are trying to live healthier lifestyles. This week, Adam sits with Casey Johnston, author of A Physical Education: How I Escaped Diet Culture and Gained the Power of Lifting, to talk about the gains that can be made by breaking out of diet culture and lifting instead.

Welcome to the Purple Patch Podcast! In the episode, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon discusses the importance of a structured off-season for athletes to avoid performance regression. He emphasizes the need for consistent, lighter training rather than complete shutdown or high-volume base building. Dixon highlights the significance of maintaining rhythm, technique, and strength during the off-season to ensure better performance in the next season. He advocates for focusing on specific projects, such as improving technique or building strength, and stresses the importance of organizational effectiveness and supporting habits like sleep and nutrition. Dixon concludes by encouraging athletes to view the off-season as a performance accelerator rather than a break.  If you have any questions about the Purple Patch program, please don't hesitate to contact us at info@purplepatchfitness.com.    Purple Patch and Episode Resources Check out our world-class coaching and training options: Tri Squad: https://www.purplepatchfitness.com/squad 1:1 Coaching: https://www.purplepatchfitness.com/11-coached Run Squad: https://www.purplepatchfitness/com/run-squad Strength Squad: https://www.purplepatchfitness.com/strength-1 Live & On-Demand Bike Sessions: https://www.purplepatchfitness.com/bike  Explore our training options in detail: https://bit.ly/3XBo1Pi  Live in San Francisco?

Get Started With Muscle Activation Techniques® To Keep Your Muscles Strong & Functioning Well: https://www.matschaumburg.com “Functional training” is a term often used by the fitness industry to describe ways of exercising that look like they improve people's ability to perform everyday activities. Key phrase… “that look like”. Because when it comes down to it, most forms of “functional training” actually do the exact opposite. But that does not mean that all ways of exercising will diminish your ability to do everyday activities. So how can you determine if an exercise is helpful or hurtful to your efforts to keep doing the things you enjoy most and what should you be focusing on with your workouts to give you the best chance possible of staying active and independent long-term? On this week's episode of the Exercise Is Health® podcast, that is exactly what we are diving into. We tell you what you need to know to sift through the nonsense of the mainstream fitness industry and spend your time and energy doing the exercises that will actually move the needle for you.

The conversation continues as William and Zach delve into hypertrophy training and how to push yourself close to failure without injury while improving muscle mass and strength.

We think fitness is about the body. But in truth, it begins in the story we tell ourselves. In this conversation with Jake Parker, we explore fitness not as a battle of discipline, but as a shifting of identity. Humans evolved in a world of scarcity where every calorie mattered. Now, in a world of abundance, that same wiring works against us. The magic, Jake suggests, is in designing new defaults. Defaults where exercise becomes an act of self-kindness, food choices become votes for the person you want to be, and consistency becomes less a grind and more a groove. Fitness then stops being a task and starts becoming a story of who you are becoming.

Dr. Shannon Richey is a trainer, founder of EVLO Fitness and host of the Dr. Shannon Show. She joins me for a myth-busting deep dive into women's fitness, physiology, and how to get the results we are striving for. We unpack what most people get wrong about training men vs. women, the truth about cycle syncing, and why building a sustainable routine matters more than chasing soreness or “no pain, no gain.” Dr. Richey breaks down progressive load, recovery days, and the science of rest, plus how to avoid overtraining while still seeing results. We get into hot topics like Pilates vs. strength training, why women sometimes feel “bulky,” and the real metabolic benefits of muscle. She also shares practical strategies for reaching body composition goals with or without food tracking, healthy high-protein snacks, how to diet without missing out on fun, and the four key pillars for building muscle. If you've ever wondered how quickly you can see results—or why you might feel puffy or retain water—this episode is packed with answers.This episode is brought to you by Vivrelle, Boncharge, Osea, Our Place, Ro, Quince, and Nutrafol.Go to vivrelle.com and use code WELL for 30% off one month of membership and to skip the waitlist.

This episode breaks down groundbreaking research on hyper-caloric 16:8 time-restricted eating during 8 weeks of resistance training, proving you can build muscle and get stronger while maintaining an intermittent fasting lifestyle. Dr. Scott and Tommy analyze a study comparing fasted vs fed workout groups, revealing that the time-restricted eating group gained 50% more muscle mass (2.67kg vs 1.82kg) while gaining significantly less fat (0.26kg vs 1.67kg) even in a caloric surplus. Discover why fasted training leads to superior body composition changes - more muscle growth with minimal fat gain - making it ideal for physique-focused goals and maintenance phases. Learn the trade-offs: while the fed group showed slightly better strength gains (particularly in squat performance), the fasted group achieved the same total weight lifted with fewer reps, suggesting greater training efficiency. The hosts explain why this matters for long-term fasting lifestyle success, especially for those reaching maintenance goals who want to continue improving body composition without regaining weight. Get practical strategies for timing workouts with eating windows, understanding the adaptation period for fasted training, and choosing between performance-focused vs body composition-focused approaches. This episode provides evidence-based guidance for combining resistance training with intermittent fasting, showing that you don't have to sacrifice muscle building for fat loss - you can optimize both simultaneously with proper timing and nutrition strategies. ⁠Take the NEW FASTING PERSONA QUIZ! - The Key to Unlocking Sustainable Weight Loss With Fasting!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Resources and Downloads: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SIGN UP FOR THE DROP OF THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BLOOD SUGAR CONTROL⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠GRAB THE OPTIMAL RANGES FOR LAB WORK HERE! - NEW RESOURCE! ⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FREE RESOURCE - DOWNLOAD THE NEW BLUEPRINT TO FASTING FOR FAT LOSS!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SLEEP GUIDE DIRECT DOWNLOAD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠DOWNLOAD THE FASTING TRANSFORMATION JOURNAL HERE!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Partner Links: Get your⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ FREE BOX OF LMNT⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ hydration support for the perfect electrolyte balance for your fasting lifestyle with your first purchase⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠25% off a Keto-Mojo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ blood glucose and ketone monitor (discount shown at checkout)! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Our Community: Let's continue the conversation.

Did you know strength training can do more for type 2 diabetes than medication ever could? Amy Hudson and Dr. James Fisher continue their series on the benefits of strength training and reveal how powerful it can be for managing—and even reversing—type 2 diabetes. They break down why excess sugar builds up in the bloodstream, how your muscles play a critical role in blood sugar control, and what kind of training yields real, measurable results—without needing extreme diets. If you—or someone you know—is dealing with type 2 diabetes, this is an episode you won't want to miss. Dr. Fisher defines type 2 diabetes: it's a condition where the body becomes unresponsive to insulin, leaving glucose floating in the bloodstream instead of being stored and used properly. Dr. Fisher breaks down how insulin resistance begins. When your body stops reacting to insulin's signal to store sugar, it starts a cascade of health issues that lead to type 2 diabetes. According to Dr. Fisher, over 422 million people worldwide have diabetes, and the disease causes at least 1.5 million deaths every year. Dr. Fisher highlights how diabetes is largely lifestyle-driven. That means many cases are preventable or reversible with the right habits—especially consistent exercise and dietary awareness. Amy poses the big question: Is sugar intake or lack of exercise the real issue? Dr. Fisher explains that both matter—but without regular movement, even a modest diet can lead to sugar overload and poor glucose control. If you're not actively burning glucose through movement, even a “normal” Western diet is likely giving you far more sugar than your body can handle. Strength training is a powerful tool against diabetes. Studies show it reduces waist size, body fat, blood pressure, cholesterol, and most importantly, HbA1C—the key marker of blood sugar control. Amy reminds us that it's easy to believe you need drugs or extreme diets, but strength training alone can help manage your blood sugar levels. Dr. Fisher outlines the most effective approach to strength training. The best results came from lifting moderate to heavy weights (over 60% of one-rep max) with high effort, two to three times per week. Why intensity matters more than duration. You don't need long workouts—you need focused, high-effort sessions that push your muscles to adapt and grow stronger. Amy makes an encouraging observation about habit stacking. When people begin exercising, they often naturally start eating better, sleeping more, and making other healthy choices. Dr. Fisher shares results from a large meta-analysis covering 1,100 people. The most impactful programs were progressive—meaning the weight and difficulty increased over time, keeping the body challenged. Why working with a personal trainer or a supervisor can accelerate your progress. Supervised sessions ensure your workouts are safe, structured, and progressively harder. The academic consensus is crystal clear. Strength training helps regulate blood sugar, reduce HbA1C, improve insulin sensitivity, and may even reverse type 2 diabetes in certain cases. Amy offers a compelling reason to start now. Even if you're healthy, strength training provides peace of mind that you're protecting yourself against future metabolic diseases. Dr. Fisher shares his 80/20 approach to eating. He focuses on clean, whole foods 80% of the time and gives himself the freedom to enjoy things like cookies and chips without guilt the other 20%. Amy reminds us that healthy living isn't about being flawless—it's about staying consistent and doing your best most of the time, even if you stumble occasionally.     Mentioned in This Episode: The Exercise Coach - Get 2 Free Sessions!

Send us a textYou know those fitness clichés that just won't die? Like “muscle confusion keeps your body guessing” or “lifting weights makes women bulky”? Yeah, we're coming for them.This is part two of my chat with Dr. Allan Bacon, strength coach, medical pro, and professional BS buster. (If you missed part one, go back. It's chef's kiss myth-busting gold about metabolism, influencers quoting mouse studies, and why women are not just small men.)In this round, Allan and I take on the internet's favorite myths, starting with muscle confusion. Spoiler: it doesn't give you better results. It mostly just makes you sore. We also tackle the never-ending Pilates vs. weights debate because no, Pilates does not magically give you “long, lean muscles” (that's genetics, babe). And no, weight training will not turn you into the Hulk by accident.We get into why women think they bulk up too quickly (hint: it's just the pump, not instant muscle gain) and why sticking with weight training is one of the best things you can do for fat loss, metabolism, and avoiding injuries down the line. Your muscles are basically little carb sponges, so the more lean muscle you build, the more pizza you can eat without it going straight to your hips.And because Allan can't resist a peek into the future, he also calls out the next big scam about to flood your feed: concierge pill mills. Yep, the wellness industry always finds a way.This episode is equal parts myth-busting, science, and pep talk. Bottom line: lift the damn weights. You're not broken, you're not doomed, and your body is capable of way more than you think.What's Inside:Why “muscle confusion” is mostly hypeThe truth about Pilates vs. weight trainingWhat's really behind women “bulking up” too fastThe next big fitness and wellness scam to watch forLet's get honest for a sec: are you letting fear of “bulking up” or falling for influencer hype hold you back from training the way you really want? Imagine what would change in your body and your life if you dropped the BS and just went for it.

Episode 3096: Most running injuries stem from training imbalances, not from running itself. Rachel Trotta explains how overtraining, daily mileage without rest, and neglecting strength work can cause muscular imbalances that lead to joint pain and setbacks. By blending structured run programs, targeted strength training, smart mobility work, and recovery, runners can build resilience, avoid burnout, and enjoy a lifetime of pain-free miles. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://racheltrotta.com/fitness/why-do-runners-get-injured/ Quotes to ponder: "Running is not intrinsically ‘hard on the knees' it is the muscular imbalances that result from running that can pull joints out of whack." "Follow a structured running program, and if you are an absolute beginner, use a run-walk program." "Your exercise routine should have structured variety throughout each week."

Episode 3096: Most running injuries stem from training imbalances, not from running itself. Rachel Trotta explains how overtraining, daily mileage without rest, and neglecting strength work can cause muscular imbalances that lead to joint pain and setbacks. By blending structured run programs, targeted strength training, smart mobility work, and recovery, runners can build resilience, avoid burnout, and enjoy a lifetime of pain-free miles. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://racheltrotta.com/fitness/why-do-runners-get-injured/ Quotes to ponder: "Running is not intrinsically ‘hard on the knees' it is the muscular imbalances that result from running that can pull joints out of whack." "Follow a structured running program, and if you are an absolute beginner, use a run-walk program." "Your exercise routine should have structured variety throughout each week."

Welcome to the Purple Patch Podcast! This week, we're revisiting one of the most insightful interviews we've done here on the Purple Patch Podcast. In this episode, we're exploring the topic of mature athletes. These athletes are just as ambitious and goal-driven as younger ones, but they often have a deeper and more meaningful purpose beyond winning races and setting personal records. We received a great question from a podcast listener who has participated in triathlons for over 20 years. Despite still being ambitious, she now has three kids and is seeking advice on approaching the sport from a new perspective and adjusting her training. This is a common challenge for many athletes, not just in triathlon. We've dedicated a whole show to addressing this question and hopefully, we provide helpful guidance for any mature athlete looking to optimize their mindset, strategy, and training for performance gains. The episode is divided into three parts. The first part discusses "perspective" and building a new relationship with sports. It provides context for understanding how to adjust your approach to sports and how it may differ from your younger and more competitive years.

Learn why combining morning carbohydrates with evening protein creates the ideal metabolic environment for both performance and fat burning.
