In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Emily Kiberd, a chiropractor and creator of the Thyroid Strong workout program tailored for women with Hashimoto's. We dive into her personal journey of navigating fatigue and autoimmune struggles, and why traditional workouts often miss the mark for those with autoimmune conditions. Dr. Kiberd shares her transition from cardio-heavy routines to the benefits of resistance training, explaining how muscle engagement can significantly impact hormone health and inflammation. We explore practical strategies to optimize workouts, focusing on the essential "seven" movements, the importance of proper form, and the critical role nutrition plays in muscle health. Plus, Dr. Kiberd emphasizes that you don't need to push yourself to exhaustion to see results. If you’re seeking a smarter approach to exercise that supports your unique health needs, this episode is for you!
