Wits & Weights | Fat Loss, Nutrition, & Strength Training for Lifters Bonus Episode: Midlife Hormones, Macros, and Muscle for Women Over 40
This conversation is from my appearance on Karen Martel’s The Hormone Solution Podcast.
Karen invited me on her podcast to discuss the unique challenges and opportunities women over 40 face when it comes to nutrition, fitness, and hormonal health. We covered a LOT of relevant topics, like common diet myths and personalized strategies to help women maintain energy, muscle mass, and metabolic health as they age. You’ll learn the importance of body recomposition and get some practical advice on optimizing workout routines to maximize results while minimizing time spent in the gym.
You’ll hear about the role of macros in women's health post-40, the flaws in the "eat less, move more" mantra, and the benefits of strength training for managing insulin resistance. We also discussed the importance of nutrient timing, electrolyte balance, and tracking progress using metrics beyond just the scale. We talked about some amazing clients who combined proper nutrition with lifting weights, and how this holistic approach can improve your health dramatically in midlife.
Enjoy my conversation with Karen Martel!
