Training during race season often means longer workouts, more volume, and sometimes more speedwork, as athletes try to find peak fitness for their "A" races.  But intensity and volume can increase the risk of injury, so in this episode, we talk to athlete and physical therapist Christine Saleeba.  Christine gives us her biggest tips to try to avoid injury, from a PT perspective.  Also, toward the end, we do a rapid fire "hot takes" on all things PT, which gets a little controversial. :) Have a listen!

If you're a runner, you've probably heard that strength training can help you run faster, stay injury-free, and perform better overall. But knowing it's important and actually doing it are two very different things. In this episode, “Why Runners Struggle With Strength Training (And How to Fix It),” I'm breaking down the most common reasons runners avoid the weight room—and how to overcome each one. Whether you're afraid of bulking up, confused about what exercises to do, or just can't seem to stay consistent, this episode will give you clarity, confidence, and practical strategies to start building real strength that supports your running goals. Strength training doesn't have to be complicated, time-consuming, or intimidating. It just needs to be smart, simple, and consistent. So let's dive into the top 10 struggles and start fixing them—one smart lift at a time. The post 282. Why Runners Struggle With Strength Training (And How to Fix It) appeared first on Running Lean with Patrick McGilvray.

Ep 34 – The Power of Muscle: Strength Training for Real Life Health Part 2 In this powerful follow-up episode of Walk, Don't Run to the Doctor, Dr. Miles Hassell and Jennifer Smith of Starting Strength Beaverton dig deeper into the mindset behind fitness—and how strength training can be a surprising antidote to loneliness, mental fatigue, and life's hardest decisions. Key Takeaways: “Everything we do, we do twice—first in our mind, then in action.” Jen explores how mental preparation is just as vital as physical strength. Decision fatigue is real—but strength training helps you build discipline and identity through repetition and intention. Fitness as a cure for loneliness: How small-group strength training builds unexpected, life-giving community—especially for older adults. Shared purpose connects generations: Stories of gym members aged 18 to 81 lifting side-by-side, building both muscle and friendships.

"Doctors are humans, and we are patients, too. I decided to start sharing what I was doing in my own life, and it has transformed the way I practice medicine, the way I parent, and literally every aspect of my life." - Dr. Jamie Seeman I had to track down Dr. Jamie Seeman (a.k.a.

In this episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Ty Horn, who many of you might know from his presence on Instagram where he shares powerful insights about strength training, Jiu-Jitsu, and life.   Ty and I dove deep into his story—from being a Division 1 football player to hitting a major life setback, then rediscovering strength through strongman competitions and eventually falling in love with Jiu-Jitsu. He shared how strength training gave him not only physical resilience but a sense of identity and purpose again, especially after dealing with legal trouble, being ostracized, and navigating the post-athlete identity crisis.   This was a real, vulnerable, and fun conversation that covered so much more than just sports or lifting. Ty brought honesty, humor, and perspective to what it really means to train for life—not just for aesthetics or wins.   If you're a parent, an athlete trying to figure out “what's next,” or someone who's trying to find their groove in fitness and life again—this episode is for you.   Follow Ty and his training journey, insights, and life lessons here: Instagram: @mobility_monster74 YouTube: @mobilitymonster74

You want to work out — but between the kids being home, summer chaos, zero energy, and no routine… staying consistent feels impossible. In this episode, I'm sharing how to make exercise work with your life as a stay-at-home mom this summer, not against it. We're ditching perfection and getting practical — because your results don't come from doing it all… they come from not giving up.

In this episode, Joe Hoye, Owner/Operator of Hoye Fit, joins us for a discussion about how he helps women, especially those over the age of 40, in creating lasting change through fitness, nutrition, health and mindset.Most coaches tell women to eat less and move more—Joe Hoye does the opposite. Through Diet Detox, he simplifies nutrition and fitness, helping women eat more, exercise less, and focus on what truly matters: breaking free from self-sabotage, shifting their identity, and achieving healthy forever weight loss.With a background in surgery and years of coaching, Joe has helped over 1,000 women ditch restrictive diets, rebuild their metabolism, and reshape their lives. His bold approach proves that lasting change isn't found in another diet—it's found in a total mindset shift. Joe and Claire discuss: Why Most Diets Fail - Restrictive diets lead to short-term results but long-term failure. Joe's “Diet Detox” method focuses on enjoyment, consistency, and sustainable habits rather than extreme restrictions.Strength Training is the Key at Every Age - Women don't need new workouts at midlife—they need the right ones, and that means building and preserving muscle through strength training. It's not about bulky lifting—it's about keeping and gaining balance as well as muscular and bone strength as you age.Midlife Isn't Too Late to Start - Even women who've never exercised can begin with bodyweight movements, resistance bands, and gradual progress. It's never too late to start building strength and reclaiming energy.Mindset Makes the Difference - Long-term success requires identity change. For results to last a lifetime, it requires a mindset shift to think and act differently for a healthy lifestyle.Joe emphasizes shifting from “I'm trying to be healthy” to “I'm a healthy person,” and explains how mindset is often the missing link in lasting transformation. Connect with Joe:Website: https://hoyefit.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hoye-fitFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/joe.h.hoyeInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/joe.dietdetox/Additional Resources:FREE Fix Your Fat Loss quiz: https://quiz.hoyefit.com Diet Detox book for $1: https://dietdetox.hoyefit.com

My guest is Tom Segura, renowned comedian, writer, actor and director. We discuss the “how-to” of comedy writing and storytelling, and what the science of humor and the creative process reveal about human emotion and memory. We explore why surprise and the act of "saying the unspoken truth" activate the brain's reward circuits, as well as the subconscious mechanisms that shape our sense of what is funny.

Losing fat shouldn't mean feeling deprived, obsessing over every bite, or letting the scale determine your self-worth.

It starts with fueling your body properly, training in a way that builds strength and supports your metabolism, and staying consistent—not perfect—over time.In this video, I'm sharing how to approach fat loss without the obsession. You'll learn the smarter, more balanced way to see results that actually last—and feel good doing it.✅ How to train for fat loss without burnout✅ What to eat to support your metabolism and energy✅ Why the scale isn't the best measure of progress✅ How to shift your mindset and stop second-guessing yourselfYou don't have to go it alone—and you don't have to settle for quick fixes that leave you feeling worse.

“What happens if I stop strength training?” That's the audience question hosts Amy Hudson and Dr. James Fisher address in this new episode of Strength Changes Everything. Join them to hear about the benefits and negative consequences of doing and stopping strength training, as well as a 2017 study that looked at how a group of people were affected by halting their 6-month strength training. You'll walk away with a better understanding of how strength training works and what will happen to your body and mind if you decide to suddenly stop doing it. Hosts Amy Hudson and Dr. James Fisher address a question from a listener: “What happens if I stop strength training?”. Dr. Fisher explains that our body will react to the demands that are imposed on it and that, when it comes to muscles, there's a sort of “use it or lose it” dynamic. You can make a muscle-skill analogy: stopping practice will lead to you seeing a deficiency in that skill. The same applies to your muscles. The consequences of stopping strength training will depend on several factors, such as someone's age and training history, their genetics, and how long it took to make those initial muscle adaptations. Ceasing strength training completely today could lead to loss of strength and muscle mass, loss of type-2 muscle fibers, loss of cardiorespiratory fitness, an increase in body fat, and body fat percentage. Metabolic changes, changes in sleep patterns, and increased risk of cardiovascular disease are additional issues that may arise as a result of an abrupt halt in strength training.  Dr. Fisher expects most people who are past their 40s or 50s to start to see the implications and effects of detraining within a 3 or 4-week period. Dr. Fisher shares a 2017 German study that looked at the impact of detraining, after having done strength training for several weeks, on a group of elderly people. After six months of strength training, those who stopped did lose strength and muscle size, but were still stronger and had more muscle mass than they did at their baseline level. The group of elderly people who decided to keep training on their own, after the six months of the initial supervised strength training, lost almost as much strength as the group that had chosen not to train at all. For Amy, the 2017 German study makes a case for “If you don't have a great reason to stop, why should you stop?”. Amy lists the benefits of strength training, including improvement of your metabolic health, decreased inflammation, decreased disease risk, improved mood, and improved hormonal state. A quote to keep in mind: “You can have all the problems in the world, but if you don't have your health, you have one problem.” Amy and Dr. Fisher explore the mental and cognitive aspects of strength training – and what may happen if you stop it. Dr. Fisher points out that people who go to the gym and engage in strength training on a regular basis have a sense of accomplishment in the task, rather than in the outcome itself. Amy invites us to be mindful of our brain: it's always looking for excuses to sabotage the healthy habits that we intend, especially if they're newer! Did you know that being weak is more detrimental to our health than being overweight? Dr. Fisher and Amy explore the “Fat but Fit” paradigm further. Dr. Fisher and Amy talk about the scenario in which someone picks up strength training for a month but then stops.   Mentioned in This Episode: The Exercise Coach - Get 2 Free Sessions!

Strength training is integral in every workout routine — for building muscle, as well as tapping into the many ways it influences overall health. Yet lifting weights can be intimidating, especially if you're new to it. And even if you have experience, you want to make sure the efforts you're putting in are as effective as they can be.   With that in mind, Jeff Rosga, CPT, joins us to talk about the movement patterns and other variables that form the backbone of a well-rounded and productive strength regimen.   Find the episode highlights, get related resources and view the transcript for this episode at https://experiencelife.lifetime.life/podcast/whats-really-in-an-effective-strength-training-plan    Have thoughts you'd like to share or topic ideas for future episodes?

Do you keep saying, “I need to start working out,” but feel completely overwhelmed every time you try? You're not lazy. You're likely just stuck in analysis paralysis—trying to figure out what workouts to do, how many reps, whether you need to join a gym, and wondering if you're even doing it right. If you've been Googling phrases like “workout routine for beginners,” “how to get toned,” or “simple health rhythms” but nothing sticks, this episode will give you the actual steps to start building strength—without the perfectionism, pressure, or Pinterest rabbit holes. Shaela walks you through how to: Choose the right number of training days for your real life (not your fantasy calendar) Match your workout split with your schedule using practical templates (2, 3, 4, or 5 days a week) Plug in movement patterns like squats, hinges, push/pull exercises, and core work Use equipment you already have—or none at all! Pick realistic reps and sets without overthinking Whether you're brand new or just getting back into a rhythm, this is a grace-filled, faith-rooted approach to building a sustainable strength training plan that works for busy Christian women.

Episode 2971: Rachel Trotta debunks the myth that women will “bulk up” from lifting heavy weights, emphasizing that genetics, more than workouts, determine your physique. She also shares practical strategies for tracking food intake and caloric needs to avoid mistaking fat gain for muscle growth, helping you build a lean, strong body on your own terms. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.racheltrotta.com/fitness/get-bulky-strength-training/ Quotes to ponder: "You can only 'bulk up' within the spectrum of your genetic potential." "Most women mistake fat for out-of-control muscle gain." "Looking better starts with feeling better and thinking better, and it's important that you have your mindset right before you start working on physique goals."
