#52 - Just because you can eat it doesn't mean you should with Keith Littlewood
I feel Keith Littlewood needs no introduction! He’s been on our podcast plenty of times. He’s just a wealth of information, so we decided to sit down and talk about why some of these so called health foods like raw green veggies, nuts, seeds and vegetable oils may not be so super for our health after all!I remember back in my crazy diet days I cut all sugar, fruit and dairy from my diet and had green veggies at every single meal. I also made my own almond milk, ate a lot of nut butters and mainly consumed polyunsaturated fats. I always felt I was doing the right thing eating what I thought was 'clean' and healthy but I was bloated and constipated, I rarely slept through the night, I had painful and irregular periods, I was tired all the time and my hair was falling out.So I thought I’d sit down with Keith and look at the impact these so called health foods have our on digestion, hormones and thyroid health.Keith and I also talk about:➡️Consuming foods in their whole natural form doesn’t always mean they are healthy➡️How we are somewhat conditioned to like these foods➡️What the impact of some of these ‘health’ foods has on overall health and digestion➡️Why it’s not entirely black-and-white (context matters!)➡️How some of these foods may impact your hormones and thyroid➡️And more!Happy listening I hope you find this podcast helpful and don't forget to take a screenshot of the episode and share it on Instagram stories and tag me at @kittyblomfield.

#51 - How to get rid of Cellulite with Len Smith
I want to start this by saying this is by no means about criticising women with cellulite. The reason I did this podcast with Len is because I get so many questions from women - How do I get rid of cellulite??Len is one of the women in our Winatlife program, she's in her 50's and has two kids. She is just so funny and gorgeous. She always keeps it real and post's the funniest videos in our Facebook group. When Len joined the program she not only suffered from extreme digestive and menopausal symptoms she also had a lot of cellulite.She's not only fixed her digestive and menopausal issues but she's also seen a huge improvement in her cellulite. If you had to my Instagram page you can see more of her before and after photos.I thought it’d get her on the show so she could share her journey and reveal what she eats, how she trains and what supplements she takes.We talk about:👉Len’s health journey and transition into peri-menopause and then menopause👉Her experience with restrictive diets, fasting, and binging👉Len’s diet and what she eat's on a day to day basis, how she trains and what sort of cardio she does, and the specific changes she's made over the last few years👉Learning the art of lifting and how that's helped her improve her cellulite👉Improvements Len saw with her health FIRST and then how her body followed once these happened👉Supplements she’s taking👉How to be honest with yourself and your results (and why you need to be)👉And more!Happy listening I hope you find this podcast helpful and don't forget to take a screenshot of the episode and share it on Instagram stories and tag me at @kittyblomfield.

#49 - How many days per week should I train to build muscle and should I be doing cardio? with Craig McDonald
I get a lot of questions from women asking me if I want to lose weight and tone up how many days should I be training and should I be doing cardio?So I decided to sit down with Craig (my partner in business and in life), fondly known as Coach Sausage in our program. One night on a round table I called him sausage and the name has stuck with him ever since. 🤣Prior to meeting Craig I was stuck on the merry go round of restrictive diets and training two hours per day fasted. I was desperately trying to maintain a certain body weight and lower level of body fat. I fell head over heels with lifting as well as head over heels for Craig and I ended up competing in powerlifting for a few years. Now I just lift because I love it.When it comes to training context is important. I think the better questions to ask yourself would be:1️⃣ What is my goal?2️⃣ What is my current state of metabolic health. So when I talk about metabolic health markers I mean resting temps and pulses, sleep, digestion, mood, energy, sex drive and menstrual cycle or menopausal issues and,3️⃣ What do I enjoy doing?In this episode Craig talks about👉 Why he programs the way he does for the women in our program👉 Why strength training is so beneficial for women, why its great for fat loss and how it can improve the resting metabolic rate👉 The three things you need to build muscle👉 How many days per week should you be training (hint you can strength train 2,3,4,5 and 6 days - programming is important)👉 The different types of cardio and why and when they are appropriate👉 Can you do other exercises and play sport outside of lifting👉 Recovery and why it’s so important👉 Weight/fat gain when moving to a pro-metabolic diet, when its appropriate, when its not appropriate and how we minimise weight/fat gain with women in our programHappy listening I hope you find this podcast helpful and don't forget to take a screenshot of the episode and share it on Instagram stories and tag me at @kittyblomfield.

#48 - Beating PCOS and feeling like a goddess with Anna Lakomy
Anna is 33 years old, lives in the US, is married, and, like me, has her fur babies!And her story is so fascinating! I’m sure many women can relate. She spent a large majority of her life spinning her wheels in the wrong directions. Diagnosed with PCOS when she was younger, she was told all the garbage advice like to cut dairy and eat more leafy greens.Anna says that her health journey even started before her PCOS diagnosis. She believes that her pursuit to be as skinny as possible likely contributed to her eventual diagnosis.She then went on to try Weight Watchers, low calorie diets, keto, and more. She was also told her PCOS symptoms would likely get worse over time.But today (after being in our program since July 2020), Anna has said that her most recent blood tests came back with all optimal numbers. Her anxiety has fully disappeared and the physical symptoms have gone away.She shares what she eats, how she trains and the changes she had to make in her life to see these incredible improvements.It’s truly incredible and really hits home on the importance of eating enough calories, nutrient dense foods and carbs!!Anna even says, “I don’t think I would’ve ever made the change if it weren’t for this program.” She says the community, coaches, resources, and support helped so much (and so many other women I know agree!).Happy listening I hope you find this podcast helpful and don't forget to take a screenshot of the episode and share it on Instagram stories and tag me at @kittyblomfield.

#46 - The effect fasting has on female hormones and the metabolism with Keith Littlewood
If you've followed me for a while you'll know I did every protocol of fasting for 12 months and I felt great in the beginning (because I was running off stress hormones) but after a while I developed painful and irregular periods, my sleep suffered, I was tired and my hair was falling out.I know so many other women who have gone down the same path so I thought I would catch up with friend Tommo Littlewood and talk about all things fasting when it comes to female hormones and the metabolism.

#45 - Learning how to say NO with Carol Nedov
Do you find it hard to say no to a simple request?One of the biggest things I see in our Winatlife program is women's inability to say NO. Women are conditioned from birth to say yes to please others. If this is something you struggle with you are not alone. Many women feel they can't put their energy, time and bodies first. When you say yes to things you don’t have time to do, what you don’t see is all the things you are saying no too.In this episode I sit down with Carol Nedov, client and psychotherapist and we discuss why women have such a hard time saying no to things they don't want to do. Why it's so important to learn how to say no confidently and no feel guilty about it. Carol also talks about her upbringing and how it impacted her ability to say no and how you can start prioritising yourself and start saying no with confidence.Happy listening I hope you find this podcast helpful and don't forget to take a screenshot of the episode and share it on Instagram stories and tag me at @kittyblomfield.
