Unveiling the Impact of Hormones on Women's Health and Fitness

WOMEN SHOULD NOT DO INTERMITTENT FASTING; says Dr Stacy Sims - a world renowned physiologist, Nutrition scientist and applied researcher.  In this episode Stacy discusses how Intermittent Fasting is NOT advisable for women, carbohydrates are NOT bad for women and that often women trying to lose body fat should consume MORE calories.

As well as discussing nutrition, we also talk about recommended exercise strategies for women at different life stages when our hormonal levels change – including the importance of lifting heavy weights.

Stacy’s research specialises specifically in sex differences in training and nutrition.  She is an author of the popular books ‘Roar’ & ‘Next Level’, researcher and all round Women’s Health expert.  In 2019 Stacy delivered a Ted Talk entitled Women are Not Small Men.  This now has nearly half a million views and is still growing.

This is an episode not to be missed.
