8020 Personal Training And Nutrition

It’s not just about aesthetics. It’s about strength. In fact…strength should always trump aesthetics. Hard concept in a world that only focus on outside beauty and how “thin” you are. For me it’s about getting off the toilet when I’m 80 BY MYSELF!!

Reposting a fave! Hopefully be catching up with Dr Stacy soon to film more AMA’s for you guys! ✨ The truth is we don’t directly chase fat loss. We lift heavy, fuel well and train like athletes. Your body will change as a by product of doing the right things consistently. #drstacysims #lift #athletes

Why women need to eat within an hour of waking up ☀️

Are you accidentally disrupting your hormones before 8AM? If you’re skipping breakfast, doing intermittent fasting until noon, or delaying food “for metabolic benefits” — this is for you. Exercise physiologist @drstacysims breaks down what actually happens when women don’t eat within an hour of waking: cortisol stays elevated, hunger hormones dysregulate, and by 4PM you’re crashing, craving sugar, and eating uncontrollably at night. In the full episode, Dr. Stacy Sims and I go deep on everything women need to know about training and nutrition across every phase of life: - Why women lose muscle differently than men — and what to do about it - How heavy strength training slows Alzheimer’s risk - The truth about protein timing after 40 - How your gut microbiome shifts with hormones and drives cravings So much more! 🎧 Episode is out now. Drop a YES below and I’ll DM you the link to listen!

My kids and I stopped using regular sunscreen over a year ago. What Dr. Clay Moss is saying is the exact reason why. In my opinion, skin cancers are on the rise because of all the chemical from the sunscreen. Plus our body needs that vitamin D3 that the sun gives.

I use the sunscreen that is completely natural and the link is below if you are interested in an alternative that does not have all the chemicals. We used it last year at the beach and it worked amazing! You can even make your own sunscreen with beef tallow!

But I encourage you to do the research about sunscreen and to think about an alternate route when it comes to natural sunscreens without all the chemicals.

Did you know that your body creates its own natural sunscreen by being in the sun 15 minutes a day?! Also certain foods like eating watermelon can also provide you a natural defense to sunburns. It’s pretty amazing how God made our body to do these things!

Before you hit the beach this summer… check your sunscreen. ☀️ Two FDA-funded JAMA studies found that oxybenzone, avobenzone, octocrylene, and homosalate absorb into your bloodstream after a single use and exceeded the FDA safety threshold on day one. Homosalate and oxybenzone were still above safe levels at day 21. A 2023 review of 254 studies linked oxybenzone to endocrine disruption at normal sunscreen doses. I prefer zinc oxide or titanium dioxide based sunscreen. Read the label!

Why we NEED to lift heavy in the peri/menopause/post years 💪🏽

What worked for you in your 20s won’t work the same way in your 40s. Dr. Stacy Sims, PhD, is a world‑renowned exercise physiologist, nutrition scientist, and leading researcher on female‑specific health and performance. Comment “Stacy” and I’ll DM you a link to the full episode. @drstacysims explains that as your hormones change, the workouts you’ve been taught to do - like high reps with light weights - stop building muscle and strength the way they used to. At the end of the day, everyone is different - so choose exercises that you enjoy and make you feel good! But now you can make more informed choices knowing what your body needs as you get older. On this episode of @themelrobbinspodcast, Dr. Sims breaks down exactly how to train for your age, why your body stops responding to old routines, and what to do instead to build muscle, boost metabolism, and feel strong again. 🎧 “The Ultimate Guide to Menopause: How to Boost Your Metabolism, Build Muscle, & Balance Your Hormones” Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or YouTube - search “Mel Robbins Podcast Stacy Sims”

Strength Training: Yes or No The truth: muscle is not optional after 40. It’s how your body regulates blood sugar, protects your metabolism, and determines how well you age. Cardio matters. Walking matters. But resistance training is the lever most people are still underusing. The skinny-fat concept is real, you can be at a “healthy” weight and still have the metabolic profile of someone at high risk. Muscle mass predicts long-term health better than body weight alone. And no, lifting will not make women bulky. Bulk requires surplus calories and deliberate effort over a long time. What most women actually get is leaner, stronger, and far more metabolically resilient. Start somewhere. Add resistance. Stay consistent.

People are waking up to the truth!

When you see the pattern of the lies we have been told over the years it is just so disturbing.

They told you the sun is dangerous, salt will kill you, and fat makes you fat. But rejecting this advice works better than following it. In 1960, obesity was 13%. Then experts told everyone to avoid the sun, eliminate salt, and eat low-fat foods. By 2024, obesity hit 42% and heart disease became the #1 killer. Sunlight boosts immunity and extends life with zero cost. They marketed sunscreen as protection while packing it with hormone disruptors that block vitamin D. Populations eating high-salt diets for centuries had low hypertension until processed food arrived. The real danger was never salt - it was sugar and seed oils. Every cell is wrapped in fat. Your brain is mostly fat. They told you to swap it for low-fat foods loaded with sugar. When fat intake fell, obesity exploded. Half of heart attack victims have normal cholesterol. Those with higher cholesterol often live longer. They put millions on drugs that deplete your body's repair molecule. Chronic fatigue, brain fog, depression - these aren't diseases. They're nutrient deficiencies. There's no profit in magnesium or sunlight, so deficiency gets labeled as disease. The pharmaceutical industry makes $600 billion annually managing disease, not curing it. Real healing ends the revenue stream. A healthy you is worthless to shareholders. 💡 Want more complete breakdowns? Comment "GUIDE" and I'll send you our free newsletter where 14,000+ people get uncensored health insights.
