Hey Family Brand—it's Melissa here, and this episode is just for the girls. Inspired by that old Martina McBride song (yes, I looked it up—2003!), I wanted to sit down and have a really honest chat about womanhood. From postpartum recovery to hormones, breast implants, Hashimoto's, perimenopause, and trying to figure out what wellness even means in your 40s—this is the episode I wish I had heard years ago. And honestly? I hope it's one Ivy listens to one day when she's grown. Because we don't talk about this stuff enough. I take you all the way back to my post-baby journey—five kids in 10 years, either pregnant or nursing—and what that did to my body. I share what it looked like to start exploring functional medicine, get my hormones checked, and find out I had Hashimoto's (surprise!). I've been learning how to support my body ever since—less guessing, more intention. And yep… I talk about my decision to get a breast augmentation after baby number five. The good, the not-so-great, and the wild hospital story that followed (spoiler alert: not my favorite memory). I also talk about how much your environment and the people around you influence how you feel about your body—and why I might have made a different choice if I were living somewhere else at the time. Now at 40, I'm experimenting again. Weighted vests, walking, lifting heavy, gut health, and tracking my cycle—all things I'm learning about to support this season of life. I want to be strong. I want to be healthy. I want to be that 81-year-old hiking in Hawaii and wrestling grandkids on the beach. And I know that future starts now. This isn't a how-to or a prescription. It's just my story. But if you're on your own health journey—and wondering if you're doing it “right”—I hope this reminds you that you're not alone. You don't have to have it all figured out. You just have to keep showing up.

Matt delves into the science of weighted blankets for sleep improvement in this week's episode. These heavy covers (10-40 lbs) utilize Deep Pressure Stimulation (DPS), a concept originating from Dr. Temple Grandin's 1960s work. DPS is theorized to shift the nervous system from "fight-or-flight" to a calmer parasympathetic state by potentially increasing serotonin and activating brain regions involved in emotional regulation, like the insular cortex, thereby fostering a state conducive to sleep.Matt describes research whose highlights include a 2020 study where 42% of insomnia patients achieved remission with weighted blankets, and a 2021 study that showed healthy adults experienced increased deep sleep and less restlessness. Benefits are also noted for children with ADHD. Proposed mechanisms extend to reduced awakenings and anxiety. While studies show promise for specific groups, larger, objective trials are still needed. Weighted blankets (around 10% body weight) are best viewed as a potential aid alongside good sleep hygiene.Please note that Matt is not a medical doctor, and none of the content in this podcast should be considered medical advice in any way, shape, or form, nor prescriptive in any way.One of our sponsors this week is the biochemical electrolyte drink company LMNT, and they are very kindly offering eight free sample packs when you purchase any one of their orders at drinklmnt.com/mattwalker.

In this week's episode, Tom Irwin and Steve Carroll discuss the drought that is putting greenkeepers in a bind across GB&I. It's barely rained in weeks in many places and the skies look clear for a little while to come. What pressures are course teams under and do we need to rein in our expectations of what golf looks like in the face of climate extremes? Tom's also been putting in a raft of general play scores on his travels across the country. We look at the impact on his handicap and consider if adding a weighting to social scores could lessen the fear of manipulation while also providing the accessibility craved by the game's governing bodies. Steve is also put firmly on his toes by a couple of rules scenarios that could happen in your next competition. Does he have the right answers?   Website: https://www.nationalclubgolfer.com/ X: https://x.com/NCG_com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NationalClubGolfer Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nationalclubgolfer/?hl=en

Podcast: Toe the Rubber May 1, 2025 Return to Synchronicity McClintock and Jung Barbara McClintock: American scientist and pioneering cytogeneticist who made groundbreaking discoveries in genetics. She is best known for discovering "jumping genes" or transposable elements— segments of DNA that can move within a genome. Her work showed that genes are not fixed in place and can regulate each other, which was revolutionary at the time. "If you know you are on the right track, if you have this inner knowledge, then nobody can turn you off... no matter what they say.” "There's no such thing as a central dogma into which everything will fit. Life is too complicated for that.” Carl Jung: “Synchronicity is an ever-present reality for those who have eyes to see.” “The connecting principle appears to reside in the dynamics of the collective unconscious.” Current trend in Gadgets: A short list of physical products: Cross Symmetry bands/tubing Jaeger bands Towell drills - derivatives Weighted baseballs Baseball Derivatives of the pitch grips and different pitches Long Toss A list of technology products (arm or pitch centric): 1.

Proximal-to-Distal Sequencing in Pitching: A Coaching Manual for Youth Development Understanding the Proximal-to-Distal Movement Pattern In pitching, the proximal-to-distal movement pattern refers to the sequential activation and movement of body segments, starting from the body's center (proximal segments) and progressing outward to the extremities (distal segments). This sequence is crucial for generating maximum velocity and reducing injury risk. The kinetic chain in pitching typically follows this order: pelvis → trunk → shoulder → arm → forearm → hand. Each segment builds upon the momentum of the previous one, culminating in efficient energy transfer to the baseball. (Biomechanics Research Aims to Improve Sports Performance, The Association of Baseball Pitch Delivery and Kinematic Sequence ...) Sequencing Order and Its Importance The ideal pitching sequence involves: (Kinematic Sequence Important for Preventing Baseball Injuries) 1. Pelvis Rotation: Initiates the kinetic chain, generating rotational energy. 2. Trunk Rotation: Transfers energy from the pelvis to the upper body. 3. Shoulder Rotation: Continues the energy transfer, positioning the arm. 4. Arm Acceleration: Propels the forearm and hand forward. 5. Forearm and Hand Movement: Final acceleration and release of the ball. (Sport Specialization and Overuse Injuries in Adolescent Throwing ..., Comparison of Kinematic Sequences During Curveball and Fastball ...) Proper sequencing ensures that each segment reaches its peak velocity at the right time, optimizing performance and minimizing stress on the body. (Biomechanics Research Aims to Improve Sports Performance) Negative Effects of Overtraining Distal Segments Focusing excessively on training distal segments (arm, forearm, hand) can disrupt the natural kinetic chain, leading to: • Increased Injury Risk: Overemphasis on the arm can cause imbalances and place undue stress on joints and muscles, increasing the likelihood of injuries such as UCL tears. • Neuromuscular Fatigue: Isolated training of distal segments can lead to fatigue and decreased performance due to the lack of support from proximal muscles. • Inefficient Mechanics: Neglecting the development of proximal segments can result in compensatory movements, reducing overall pitching efficiency. Disruption of Motor Engram Sequencing Motor engrams are neural patterns that encode specific movements. Overtraining distal movements can: • Alter Motor Patterns: Focusing on arm path alone can lead to the development of faulty movement patterns, disrupting the natural sequencing of the kinetic chain. • Impair Skill Acquisition: Neglecting full-body mechanics hampers the integration of complex movements, making it harder for pitchers to learn and refine their delivery. • Reduce Adaptability: Ingrained improper patterns limit a pitcher's ability to adjust mechanics in response to game situations or coaching feedback. Age-Specific Considerations Ages 10–12: • Focus: Developing general athleticism and introducing basic pitching mechanics. • Training Emphasis: Body awareness, balance, and coordination exercises. • Avoid: Specialized pitching drills that isolate arm movements. Ages 13–15: • Focus: Refining mechanics and building strength. • Training Emphasis: Core stability, lower body strength, and integrated movement patterns. • Monitor: Growth spurts that may affect coordination and mechanics. Ages 16–18: • Focus: Enhancing performance and preparing for higher-level competition. • Training Emphasis: Advanced strength training, power development, and fine-tuning mechanics. • Caution: Avoid overuse and ensure adequate recovery to prevent injuries. Conclusion A comprehensive understanding of proximal-to-distal sequencing is essential for developing efficient and safe pitching mechanics. Coaches should prioritize full-body training approaches that emphasize the integration of all body segments, ensuring young pitchers build a solid foundation for long-term success.

In this video, Dr. Doug Lucas discusses the use of weighted vests, particularly in the context of menopause and joint health. He raises concerns about the potential risks associated with weighted vests, including joint health, fall risk, and the misunderstanding of their benefits for bone mineral density. Through a review of various studies, he emphasizes the importance of understanding the nuances of research findings and the need for caution when incorporating weighted vests into exercise routines. Ultimately, he concludes that while weighted vests can be a useful tool, they should be used judiciously and not relied upon as a primary method for improving bone health.

Walking in menopause isn't just exercise — it's your secret sauce for boosting body and mind! With a few fun tweaks, make every step turn into a memory-boosting, fat-burning powerhouse. Slip on those sneakers. Tune in while taking a walk! This episode is all about making walking in menopause more beneficial! Walking 40 minutes three times a week increases Hippocampus(memory central). A 2011 study on older adults at the University of Colorado, published in the Journal Neuroimage, proved this! The hidden gem – you can walk at any pace you like. There's no minimum exertion level for this to happen. Walk short vs long So much research I've shared previously showed that intermittent breaks really matter more.  Breaking up sedentary time with 2-5 minute movement breaks reduced post-meal blood sugar spikes by 17%. Walk after meals 10 minute walks after meals had a more positive impact than a single long walk. Especially when it comes to blood sugar, belly fat and insulin resistance, more studies show! And yes, after is better than before. But if you're debating between before or not at all, yes go! You will make walking in menopause more beneficial this way by directly supporting blood sugar balance and combating insulin resistance. Go a different route or backwards Dr Ellen Langer, the Mother of Mindfulness, was the first female professor at Harvard and she's done some notable research in aging, mindset, and placebo. She shared the idea of creating habits – have us all operating automatically. Instead, she said the secret is noticing. Truly being mindful. More Fun Ways to Make Walking in Menopause a Total Game-Changer Walk and talk (therapists now walk) Need a little therapy? If not with an actual therapist but a friend. There's science to show the combination of walking outdoors (possibly even at a track) and talking is beneficial. Throw into the mix sunshine and you have three powerful serotonin producers, for a feel good session to rival antidepressant and anxiety meds. I've been known to take my phone and call a friend and talk through a 45 minute walk when life gets crazy. Amplify the learning opportunity Students who learn best, do. Learning any material while moving can boost your retention of it. The trick is to find activity and content you can focus on. Walking makes it easy and listening to a podcast that's educating you - whether on the benefits of walking (this is truly meta if you're walking right now) or you're learning about how to organize your closet or why essential amino acids are important. Students who move retain up to 76% compared to 37% while sitting. Weighted vest Using a weighted vest can increase the metabolic costs, relative exercise intensity, and loading of the skeletal system during walking. A study of trail runners concluded that between 5 and 10% the physiological and mechanical changes were significant. Meaning that at 10% additional load, there could be a considerable amount more stress on your system and your mechanics may also be altered. If you weigh 140 lbs and are using a weighted vest, you might be best starting for short periods of time with between 7 and 14 lbs, being careful not to do much time with 14 lbs until well adapted. And Finally—The 8th Way To Make Walking In Menopause More Beneficial Add intervals Do this last one with conscious planning. It's not always “more is better.” Many midlife and older women were born into the “harder or more is better” thinking. It can be hard to lose this. But if you never go easy, you're fooling yourself to think your “hard” effort is actually your capacity. To make walking more beneficial in menopause you'll want it all: short and moderate and longer walks. You'll want brisk and leisurely paced walks. But at the core of the majority of benefits from walking is just do it, daily, for a cumulative effect of movement that occurs several times a day. Are you interested in a virtual training that accumulates in a virtual “event”? Maybe a Flipping 50 walk on the same day, in different parts of the world.

Did you know that the simple act of carrying weight could be the fitness hack that could elevate your strength, brain function, metabolism, and longevity? Rucking, the practice of walking with weighted resistance, is far more than just “walking with weight.” This centuries-old training method is backed by compelling scientific research showing significant improvements in both your physical and mental health long-term. Ask yourself: what if the solution to better strength, cardio, brain function, and metabolic health isn't more complex workouts, but simply adding strategic resistance to movements you're already doing?

Faith is more than just belief—it requires obedience. In this inspiring sermon from Hebrews 11 and 12, we explore the lives of those who lived by faith and learn how their stories encourage us to walk in obedience, even when the path is difficult. The message challenges us to lay aside every weight and sin that entangles us so we can run the race God has set before us with endurance. Through real-life examples, biblical wisdom, and practical application, this sermon will help you recognize what's holding you back, trust God more deeply, and keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith. If you're looking for a church that prioritizes encountering God, growing in faith, and living in biblical truth, we invite you to join us on this journey. Questions this sermon answers: What does it mean to live by faith, and why does obedience matter? How can we identify and lay down the weights and sins that hinder us? Why is keeping our eyes on Jesus essential for running the race of faith? From Chapel Valley Church in Madison, WI. Join us as Pastor, Suzie Genin, shares the word of God.

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions:    Sarah: Hi Dr Cabral, Thank you for your content and taking the time to answer my question! I have noticed improvements in my health with doing your detox and following the advice and protocols that you give. My question is about rosacea and any thoughts or tips to get rid of it. I haven't always had it, if popped up about 8 years ago. My lead level was high on my HMTA but I detoxed and got that level down to a safe range. I've tried eliminating all food sensitivities that were on my test. Tried doing the para protocol and working on my gut quite a bit, I've done your detox a few times etc. I have tried red light with infrared and without infrared (with infrared seems to make it worse). I have seen other improvements with my health with these interventions but am wondering what I could be missing?                                                          Eleazar: Hi there dr Cabral I am now a 21 year old male but last year when I was barley 20 years old I got a viral infection.im not sure what exact virus it was but at the time it seemed like any regular viral infection which everyone gets atleast once a year but around 1 week later I started to develop POTS and it hasn't gone away what do u think could be the cause I have done my own research and it seems like it's autoimmunity since it happened after a virus also 7 months prior I was also dealing with a lot of stomach issues especially nausea after eating literally most foods.if u have any info on this it would help thank you.                                                                                                                                                  Ann: Just listened to your coffee podcast – I listen every day while I do my exercise. I'm 70, 4'11”, active, 100 lbs. and discovered you about 18 months ago – I'm hooked!! I like my coffee first thing in the morning while I do my bible readings and meditation. I never had an issue but then you mentioned it could relate to thyroid issues which I have. (hypothyroidism) BUT I drink my coffee fairly weak, 1 tbsp in a large cup and only 1 cup a day, I put in a scoop of collagen and a tsp of raw honey, sometimes manuka, and a dash of salt. Does that make drinking coffee less harmful first thing in the morning? Also, have you any research on using hydrogen water for drops in eyes for dry eyes? PS i did the big 5 - still working on it :|                                                                                                                                                           Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral -I have a friend whose 2 1/2 year old has always struggled to nap/sleep regularly. They've tried epsom salt baths, they don't let him watch TV much at all, especially from afternoon on. She is part of this community and follows your protocols, even with her son - eat clean with very little gluten, dairy, etc., use clean products for laundry, bathing, etc. The only thing I have thought about are EMF's. They have lots of Wi-Fi throughout the home, Google controlled lights, etc. and they work from home with lots of monitors, etc. I know you've talked about EMF's in the past, suggested EMF meters and products such as Somavedic. Would you recommend that for the toddler's bedroom? They have a baby monitor and wireless sound machine in the room. Other recommendations? Thank you!!                                         Jen: What are your thoughts on weighted vests?  Particularly for perimenopausal and menopausal women? I have seen many people talking about this to help with bone density.       Thank you for tuning into today's Cabral HouseCall and be sure to check back tomorrow where we answer more of our community's questions!    - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3305 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

Markets continue to do well, clearly breaking out to new highs, but are now becoming somewhat overbought. At this point, a bit of a correction/consolidation would be no surprise. But...while the S&P is breaking out, the NASDAQ is just challenging all time highs, not quite making its own break out. Money flows are fine, however. The equal-weighted index is also lagging the S&P, and it appears we're where we were last year with weighted indexes driving markets (those equal-weighted indexes have less of the Mag-7 in them). The performance gap between the two indexes is about 10%. The same dynamic exists for the IWM/Russell 2000, with a big cap between that index and large cap stocks. While International stocks have enjoyed a huge surge since the beginning of the year,  they are still way off their previous highs in October 2024. And the same applies for Emerging Markets. While there are opportunities, be careful of the narratives.   Hosted by RIA Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO  Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- Watch the video version of this podcast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9YgTKhf0IU&list=PLwNgo56zE4RAbkqxgdj-8GOvjZTp9_Zlz&index=1 ------- Get more info & commentary:  https://realinvestmentadvice.com/insights/real-investment-daily/ ------- REGISTER FOR OUR NEXT CANDID COFFEE (3/29/25) HERE: https://streamyard.com/watch/Gy68mipYram2 ------- Visit our Site: https://www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to SimpleVisor: https://www.simplevisor.com/register-new -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #WeightedIndexes #Mag_7 #NASDAQ #Russell2000 #SmallCap #LargeCap #EmergingMarkets #InternationalStocks #AllTimeHighs #MarketMomentum #RelativeStrenth #PriceCompression #MACDBuySignal #InvestingTrends #InvestmentStrategies #InvestingAdvice #Money #Investing

Surely you've heard about weighted vests, right? It's hard to miss the recent uptick in people buying and walking in weighted vests. But are they worth it? Do they help with weight loss, do they increase your fat burning, can they improve your bone health, or are they just a fad like Suzanne Somer's Thigh Master once was? After we complained in a Rant Therapy episode about seeing them everywhere, we decided we needed to dig into the research and assess their legitimacy. We can't wait to share what we found!     Thank you for listening to The Happy Eating Podcast. Tune in weekly on Thursdays for new episodes!

The best (and cheapest) therapy for those small things that get under your skin is sometimes a good venting session so you can get it off your chest and move on with your life! And if you're not privy to the first-hand vent-a-thon, then being a fly on the wall listening is hopefully equally therapeutic and also maybe entertaining.     Welcome to Rant Therapy, a podcast short powered by the hosts of the Happy Eating podcast, Brierley Horton and Carolyn Williams, where we periodically share our real-life venting sessions with each other—AKA what we're “so over”.     What is Brierley So Over? - Weighted Vests   Thank you for listening to Rant Therapy on the Happy Eating Podcast.

Episode 2598 - Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino why NSNG® goes way beyond diet culture, why leading by example is best, weighted vests, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/01/beyond-diet-culture-episode-2598 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE -   Beyond Diet Culture Vinnie and Anna share their recent adventure in Washington, DC. (2:00) Vinnie shares a recent Instagram post and a recipe idea. (14:00) NSNG compliance--what does that even mean? (18:00) NSNG® is not to be treated as some fad and is not intended to be a part of “diet culture.” It's meant to be a healthier way of eating, a lifestyle. Anna wants to hear from the X crowd about how they are holding up and what kind of kickback they get from others. (26:00) Do not try to convince others, just lead by example. People push back when they aren't ready for a change. Anna was relieved to hear she didn't need to eat rice cakes. Anna thought she was getting punked. (39:00) Social media, podcasts, and follower engagement do not always overlap. She received various comments on her Instagram about tossing a jar of Rao's down the drain. Are weighted vests a good thing? Vinnie gives a breakdown. (52:00) Start with 10 lbs, get used to it, then work your way up. Weighted vests help somewhat on a flat surface; however, the real benefits happen when going uphill. (56:00) Don't forget you can invest in Anna's Eat Happy Kitchen through StartEngine.

“Success is neither magical nor mysterious. Success is the natural consequence of consistently applying the basic fundamentals.” — Jim Rohn What if the key to transforming your health and performance wasn't complicated — but simply overlooked?

In this comprehensive guide, I break down an advanced technique for lasting longer in bed using weighted reverse kegels - a powerful exercise I learned from Dr. Newman K. Lin that goes beyond basic pelvic floor work. I provide step-by-step instructions for this 10-minute daily practice that helps rewire tension patterns causing premature ejaculation, while enhancing sexual vitality and erection strength. Using just a simple 5-pound weight (or even your hands), I demonstrate exactly how to perform this exercise to stimulate your vagus nerve, activate your parasympathetic nervous system, and develop lasting control. Whether you're dealing with premature ejaculation or want to build serious sexual stamina, I share precise breathing techniques and engagement patterns that transform your body's sexual response system. This isn't just another Kegel variation - it's a fundamental practice for reprogramming your nervous system's response to sexual stimulation.
