We lose approximately 1% of our muscle mass after the age of 40. Ahhh – 1% - what’s the big deal, right? Well – for the muscular athlete, the 3% lost from age 40-43 may be barely noticeable, but what about the 25% lost by age 65 in the unconditioned office worker who doesn’t have much extra muscle to begin with? It can dramatically reduce function and decrease both quality and years of life.

But the application of the research isn’t limited to aging. It also can bring benefits to surgical outcomes, allow athletes to extend their careers, and improve the lives of your coaching clients, friends and family members. Soon to be Dr. Giulia Coletta has been focusing her research on the practical aspects of protein intake, activity levels and other steps we can all take to positively traverse this fork in the road of life and is here to share those with us today. She has worked very closely with Dr. Stuart Phillips, one of our most popular guests on the podcast almost 4 years ago.

There is a great deal of attention being devoted to extending the lifespan, but what about the “health span” – the period of our lives during which we are not simply continuing to have a pulse, but rather the period during which we are healthy and productive. THAT’s the period we’re most interested in extending – and today we have one of the foremost experts on the subject, the head of the Healthspan Lab at Colorado State University – Dr. Tom LaRocca. He and his team study what is happening beneath the surface as we age and how we can utilize the findings to extend that period of health and impact – the period of life I think we all care most about.

Thank you for joining us here on the Catalyst 360 podcast, your source for engaging, evidence-based health, wellness & performance insights. This is such an incredible time of the year with so much energy and engagement around making positive changes in our lives. We appreciate you allowing us to be a part of your journey each week.

This is the perfect time to pause, reflect on another year gone by, and consider the gap between the vision we have of our lives and the reality in which we presently find ourselves living. We’re going to keep things short today, but in doing so I hope that together we can set the stage for a better tomorrow. 

To kick things off, I’m going to suggest something that may catch you by surprise – especially this time of the year, from this type of podcast. 

I’m going to suggest you let the goals go. You'll see what we mean and why it's so important to both your present and future in this special Insider Tips abbreviated episode.

Author John Maxwell is credited for providing the reminder that “Change is inevitable. Growth is optional.” But I have a feeling he hadn’t yet met today’s guest or realized the power of the Catalyst Community. 

Welcome to 2024. The new year always brings a fresh hope of positive change and with that, we knew exactly who would be the perfect guest to kick off your new year – the Master of Change himself: multiple-time best-selling author, Brad Stulberg. You know his books: Peak Performance, The Passion Paradox, The Practice of Groundedness and his recent hit The Master of Change – and today you’ll get to know the man behind them – and the practical guidance to get us off on the right step toward positive change in the new year. To learn more about Brad or his books, please visit https://www.bradstulberg.com/

Money. It pervades every aspect of our lives. It influences relationships, directs our career choices, impacts our use of time, where we live and why we get up in the morning. It causes worry, creates artificial feelings of security – and insecurity, drives wedges between families and business partners and so much more. And today, the one and only Gordo Byrn joins us to dig into to everyday practical elements of this subject.

Welcome to the Catalyst 360 podcast. Today’s guest seems to have the Midas touch as an athlete, coach and in the area of finances. He is a former private equity partner with experience working across Europe and Asia. These days his primary focus is his own investments as well as acting as a fiduciary for a small-family office based in Wyoming. He lives in Boulder, Colorado with his wife and three kids and is a fantastic guy to follow on twitter to get insights far beyond just finances.

You can follow Gordo @feelthebyrn1 on Twitter (consistently great insights!)

What is the potential connection between heat therapy, exercise, cognition and Alzheimer’s? Are hot tubs and saunas good for our health? And what is happening at the molecular level when it comes to chronic diseases and does that provide any additional clues about how to live our lives? Those questions and more are on the table today as Dr. Paige Geiger joins us here on the latest episode – our 301st episode! - of the Catalyst 360 podcast – your source for engaging, evidence-based health, wellness & performance insights. 

I met our guest, Dr. Geiger, when she presented some of her research about heat therapy and alzheimers at a recent health & exercise science seminar. Her background includes undergraduate degrees in Chemistry and English Literature, a PhD in Physiology from Mayo Graduate School in MN and postdoctoral work in Florence, Italy and the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis – which caught my attention since that’s where Suzanna & I met while attending graduate school ourselves. Dr. Geiger’s research is fascinating, applicable and her engaging personality – perhaps seen in her choice to combine Chemistry and English Literature degrees – makes this a fun discussion.

Special 300th episode features one of the original developers of Motivational Interviewing: Dr. Stephen Rollnick!!!

It’s hard to believe this is our 300th episode of a podcast we started in an attempt to bring a more evidence-based approach back to the world of health & wellness, a world that too often chases $$$ by leaning in on fads and headlines. Frankly, I was already feeling overwhelmed when we started, but Suzanna suggested just trying to release them as the schedule allowed and see where it goes. Thanks to you, your encouragement, you sharing the podcast with others to nudge this little project up just outside the top 1% of podcasts, we’ve released weekly episodes ever since day one, bringing us to today’s big #300.

Longtime listeners know we’ve been incredibly fortunate to have SO many amazing guests over the years, and we’ve made an extra effort to feature the best of the best on the big ones. #100 featured Drs. James and Janice Prochaska, creators of the Stages of Change model. #200 featured Dr. Bill Miller, who along with today’s special guest, Dr. Stephen Rollnick, developed Motivational Interviewing, which has changed- and continues to change - the world since it was first developed way back in 1983.  We could not be more pleased than to have Dr. Rollnick join us on this special 300th episode.
