In this episode of the Clinician’s Corner, we dive into the very important but less-discussed topic of hormone health and fitness for women over 50. At the age of 56, Debra Atkinson - a renowned hormone-balancing fitness expert - discovered the importance of tailoring fitness to the hormonal and metabolic needs of women, especially in midlife. This episode exposes the stark lack of research focused on women in exercise science, a gap Debra has observed firsthand. Her insights demonstrate not only how adept she is in this niche field, but how well she understands the nuances of working with women during a life stage that is constantly in flux.
We discuss:
Common myths about exercise and calorie-burning
How bioindividual a fitness program needs to be in order to be effective
Practical considerations for how to customize an exercise strategy just like we would the diet or a supplement protocol
The impact of high-intensity interval training versus strength training
Why cutting back can sometimes mean gaining more when it comes to fitness
Specific challenges that women face as they approach menopause and how factors like stress, nutrition, and rest play critical roles in shaping their fitness journeys
The Clinician’s Corner is brought to you by Restorative Wellness Solutions.

In this episode of the Clinician’s Corner, we talk with Zach Bitter - renowned endurance athlete and coach - to dive into the world of performance and recovery. Together we explore the intricacies of fueling strategies for long-distance athletes following a low-carb or ketogenic diet, as opposed to the traditional approach of carb-loading before an endurance event.

In this interview, we discuss:
Using low-carb or keto approaches to fuel for endurance
Exogenous ketones and their role in performance and recovery
How to transition to a low-carb/keto diet for training
Strategies to improve recovery (e.g., rest, nutrition, light therapy, ice bath)
